I currently have a terminal which I can not get working.  It was
     working then suddenly stopped (according to the user).  I have
     moved the terminal to another location and it works therefore it
     is not the terminal.  I have reset the port (from the DTC
     Manager) and reset the ldev (from sysdiag).  I have gone as far
     as to redo some of the wiring to the DTC and punched the terminal
     down to a different ldev and still no luck.

     My question is:
     Is there a way to use the DTC Manager Self Test to help determine
     the cause of this and various other problems?  In this situation
     I have discovered the following: If I do a port loop-back self
     test it succeeds.  If I do a terminal loop-back self test with it
     wired the way I belief it should be then the self test fails but
     I get a string of characters on the terminal.  If I reverse
     second pair (which often solves the problem) and perform a
     terminal loop-back self test I get nothing on the terminal.

     Any help anyone could give me on this situation would be
     appreciated.


     Thanks,
