2.Use the arrow keys to select Display Active Alarms from the Alarms menu. Press Enter or Return. A Display Active Alarms screen is shown in Figure 542-1.

Use the right arrow key to move down one screen at a time. Use the left arrow key to move up one screen at a time. Pressing CONTROL-R queries the database for all currently active alarms and a new list is displayed.

The first column (Access Identifier) (AID) identifies an entity in the Soneplex Broadband system to which the alarm condition pertains. Different alarm conditions in the Soneplex Broadband system result in different types of AIDs.

The second column (Locn) displays NEND, FEND, REPC, or REPR indicating the location of the alarm. Figure 542-2(T1 HLXC/HRX/HLXR NEND and FEND locations), Figure 542-3(HDSL HLXC/HRX/HLXR NEND and FEND Locations), Figure 542-4(DLX NEND locations), Figure 542-5,(ODS2 NEND locations), and Figure 542-6(RLX NEND and FEND Locations) show FEND, NEND, REPC, and REPR locations and descriptions for HLXC/HRX/HLXR, DLX, ODS2, and RLX systems.

The third column (Circuit Identifier) displays the circuit or facility name assigned in the configuration menu. This is also the circuit in trouble.

The fourth column (Condition) displays the alarm condition present on the circuit.
