Programs the IF Loopback Operation: On or Off. When IF loopback is turned on, the
demodulator input is connected to the modulator output through an internal attenuator. The
demodulator is programmed to the same frequency as the modulator. An attenuator within the
modem connects the IF Out to the IF In. When IF loopback is turned off, the demodulator is
tuned to the previous frequency and is reconnected to the IF input. IF loopback nullifies RF
loopback.
