Set up the modem with an external IF loop and level. Use a properly operating modulator,
and ensure that power levels, data rates, code rates, etc., are compatible.

Set up the modem to check the constellation patterns with an oscilloscope that is set in
the X-Y mode. Typical constellation patterns with noise and without noise are shown in
Figure 7-4. These test points are available on the auxiliary connector (J9, pins 6 and 8). It
is not necessary to open the modem to look at these test points.
