NPE Crosstalk Test (#6)
One or more NPEs reside on each circuit pac k with a TDM Bus interface. The
NPE controls port connectivity and gain, and provid es conferencing func tions on
a per-po r t basis. The NPE Crosstalk T est verifies that this port’s NPE channel talks
on the selected time slot and never crosses over to time slots reserved for other
connections. If the NPE is not working correc tly, one-way and noisy connections
may be observed. This test is usuall y only part of a port’s Long Test Sequence
and takes about 20 to 30 sec onds to complete.

Result Description/ Recommendation
1000 ABORT System resources required to run this test are not available. The port may
be busy with a valid call. Use the display port PCSSpp command to
determine the station extension. Use the status station command to
determine the service state of the port. If the service state indicates that
the port is in use, then the port is unavailable for certain tests. (Refer to the
"Status Commands" section in Chapter 8, "Maintenance Commands and
Trouble-Clearing Aids", for a full description of all possible states.) You
must wait until the port is idle before retesting.
1. If the port status is idle, then retry the command at 1-minute intervals a
maximum of 5 times.
