ABSTRACT:
A test terminal includes a circuit for opening a loop switch to prevent setting up of calls from the terminal via a telephone line when a signal received from the telephone line via a first high-impedance connection exceeds a predetermined threshold indicating that the telephone line is busy. An alarm circuit indicates that any call from the terminal is prohibited. Operation of the terminal in discreet monitoring mode is also prohibited if the line is busy.
