The HiGain Line Unit can be looped back (NLOC in Figure 6) by sending the Addressable
Office Repeater (AOR) LPBK activation code 1111 1111 0001 1110 (FF1E) for at least five
seconds. This causes the HLU-319, List 2D to enter its NLOC state (see Figure 6). The
display on the HLU-319, List 2D alternates between NLOC (network local loop) and the margin
displays. The Loopback Time-out option (which is user settable to “None,” 20, 60, or 120
minutes) determines the duration of this loopback, unless it is overridden by the reception of a
second identical 16-bit loop-up command before the timer expires. When this time-out override
state exists, the only way to loop the HLU, List 2D down is to issue one of the three loop-down
commands listed in Step 2. The automatic time-out mode is restored during subsequent
loopback sessions.

The following list summarizes the codes required to execute all the HiGain system loopbacks
(see Figure 6). Note that all code sequences must be present for at least five seconds.

All of the above loopbacks can also be initiated from the front panel of the HLU-319, List 2D
with the Mode and SEL push buttons (see Section B Paragraph 14.09).
