Cable malfunctions and cable connection malfunctions can be isolated down to a single device in a daisy chain system by looping back the data bus to the control bus or vice versa. A signal is then sent out on the first bus and received back on the second bus. If a cable malfunction is present, the signal received will not be the same as the signal transmitted.
