Idle Time Slot Test on TDM Bus A or B (#294)
The Idle Time Slot Test detects noisy time slots on the bus and takes them
out-of-service. The Tone Detector circuit pack is told to listen to idle time slots
and if it detects any noise on a time slot, it returns a failure. At the end of the test,
any out-of-service time slots are retested to see if they are still noisy and restored
to service if they are idle. After all the time slots have been tested, maintenance
counts the number of bad time slots and reports the number to the technician in
the error code field. No more than 220 time slots are taken out-of-service on one
bus, and no more than 300 are taken out-of-service on both buses at one time.
