In addition to the word physical,
you must enter the physical
location (PCSSpp for an
administered external device
alarm analog line port).1
Tests all administered external
device alarm ports on analog line
and maintenance boards.
How many times each test in the
sequence is repeated (1-100)
This option causes the test
sequence (short or long) to repeat
until the alarm (if any) is cleared or
a single test in the sequence fails.2
Command is validated and then a
scheduling form displays to
schedule execution of the
command. The command is then
placed in the command q ueue and
is executed at the specified time.
The information displayed by the
command is sent to the system
printer instead of the screen.3

1Since the “maintenance board” alarm c onnec tions connect to control carrier b oard s that are in unnumbered
slots, the standard port format cannot b e used to designate these alarm connec tions. The special ports Pmajor
and Pminor are used designate the major or minor maintenance board alarm c onnection for cabinet P. The
major/minor designation specifies the p air of wires,

not

the alarm level associated with the connection (the
“major” port can be ad ministered as a major, minor or warning alarm and the “minor” p ort can be administered
as a major, minor or warning alarm).
2 If no alarms are registered against the maintenance object then the test seq uence is run only once. The

long

clear
option forces a clear of all alarms if no errors are encountered d uring testing. The
short clear
option only
clears alarms pertinent to tests in the short sequence.
