Read and Clear Board Counters (#887)
This test involves sending commands to read on-circuit pack error counters on
the TN798 Processor circuit pack. It also verifies the message interface between
the system software and the Packet Interface.
1-3 FAIL The test failed. Maintenance was unable to establish a looparound link from
the Packet Interface back to itself or was unable to receive data that was
sent out over one side of the looparound link.
1. Issue the test packet-interface AS command to retry the test. If the
same error code is observed, background maintenance software will
automatically attempt to reset the circuit pack and clear the problem.
2. Retry the command and if the test fails, replace the TN798 Processor
circuit pack.
3. If the test continues to fail after replacing the TN798 Processor circuit
pack, run the test packet P long command. If any of the tests fail, the
fault may be on the Packet Bus. Refer to the PKT-BUS (Packet Bus)
Maintenance documentation for recommended repair procedures.
4. If the test continues to fail after the TN798 Processor circuit pack is
replaced and with no other alarms associated with the Packet Bus or
circuit packs connected to the Packet Bus, follow normal escalation
procedures.
PASS This test passed. The Packet Interface and its interface with the system
software are functioning properly. If the system is still unable to place calls:
1. Check for errors on the Packet Bus and Maintenance/Test circuit
pack. Resolve those errors first.
2. Check all other circuit packs connected to the Packet Bus. Packet Bus
failures are likely to be caused by a faulty circuit pack connected to the
backplane or bent pins on the back plane.
