Internal Loopback Error |
An internal adapter error was detected. Verify that the adapter is correctly installed in the computer. |
External Loopback Error |
An external adapter error was detected. Verify that the cable and test plugs are installed correctly. |

Message |
Description |
Loopback Test Passed |
The adapter passed all diagnostics, including the loopback tests. |
Loopback Failed: Possible Host Attachment |
The test can run only if the CAB is isolated from the mainframe channel. Verify that the mainframe channel has been removed from service. |
Loopback Failed: DMA |
The bus master DMA logic is not working properly or there is a DMA conflict with some other hardware device. |
Loopback Failed: IRQ |
The interrupt logic on the adapter is not working properly or there is an IRQ conflict with some other hardware device. |
Loopback Failed: Loopback Plug Missing |
The test plugs were not detected because they are not installed or they are installed incorrectly. |
Loopback Failed: BUS |
The test plugs were detected, but a problem exists with one or more of the bus lines. |
Loopback Failed: TAG |
The test plugs were detected, but a problem exists with one or more of the tag lines. |
20 MHz Oscillator Error (0x31) |
An oscillator on the adapter is not working properly. The adapter must be replaced. |
30 MHz Oscillator Error (0x32) |
An oscillator on the adapter is not working properly. The adapter must be replaced. |
