Switch Control Reset Test (#93)
This test is destructive.

This test resets the Switch Control and determines if it c an successfully go

through its initialization sequenc e. The test is destructive since there is the

possibility of losing some control messages to or from port c ircuit packs.

ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
other FAIL Messages could not be looped bac k through the control channel interface. If
this is a standard system, the customer probab ly cannot make or receive c alls.
1. This failure could be due to either a Processor circuit pack failure or the
loss of system timing signals. If the Switch Control is alarmed, then
suspect a Processor circuit pack failure. If the Switch Control is not
alarmed, investigate th e possible loss of system timing signals before
replacing the Processor circuit pack. Test #94 also fails if the system
timing signals are lost. If Test #94 passes, do not suspect the loss of timing
signals.
2. Run the Short Test Sequence several times to make sure that this failure is
occurring consistently, run the Long Test Sequence to reset the Switch
Control. Sometimes running the Long Test Sequence may clear the
problem. If the test is still failing, proceed to Step 3 or 4.
3. If the system can process calls, replace the Processor board.
4. If calls cannot be made, replace the Processor board immediately.
PASS The control channel interface between the processor and the Switch Control is
working correctly.
