System Technician-Demanded Tests: Descriptions
and Error Codes
Always investigate tests in the order p resented in the following tables when you
are inspecting errors in the sy stem. By clearing error cod es associated with the

Packet Circuit Pack Audit Test,

for example, you may also clear errors g enerated
from other tests in the testing sequenc e.
Maintenance/Test Circuit Pack Query Test (#572)
This test queries the Maintenance/Test Packet Bus port about the state of h ealth
of the Packet Bus. If the Maintenance/Test circuit pac k indicates that the Packet
Bus has faults, the test fails. The corresponding failure code desc ribes the
severity, type, and number of faults. The test passes if th e Packet Bus is
fault-free.
NOTE:
A Maintenance/Test circuit pack is usually not p resent in the system unless
the customer has purchased this circuit pack to use for ISDN-PRI test calls,
or to enhance the system’s ability to q uickly recognize a Packet Bus failure.
