Service Alarm	Definition

LOS	Loss Of Signal indicates that there is no signal being input to the E3 from the
	service side.

LOF	Loss of Framing indicates that the framing alignment of the signal coming
	into the Broadmore 1750 from the ATM side has been lost.

AIS	This alarm indicates that the E3 port is receiving an Alarm Indication Signal
	from the attached equipment. AIS is a validly framed E3 signal consisting
	of a repeated 1010 data pattern.

Idle	An idle alarm means that an idle signal (validly framed E3 signal with a repeated
	1100 signal) is being detected on the service side.

RAI	The Remote Alarm Indicator (also known as a Yellow Alarm) is transmitted by
	setting the X bits to zero. In this instance, the service side equipment is
	transmitting the RAI to the E3 port.

FEAC	Far End Alarm and Control Channel.

Line Code Violation	This alarm indicates that a long string of zeros is being received by the E3
	port from any attached equipment.

Excessive F-bit Errors	The Excessive F-bit Errors alarm is triggered when the E3 port receives
	F-bit errors at a rate of 1 x 10-4

Excessive Parity Errors	The Excessive Parity Errors alarm will be triggered when the E3 port
	receives parity errors at a rate of 1 x 10-4

Excessive C-bit Errors	The Excessive C-bit Errors alarm will be triggered when the E3 port
	receives C-bit errors at a rate of 1 x 10-4
