Notes:
a. The Announcement circuit pac k can exhibit a conditi on that does not allow
recording .
If the circuit pac k gets locked into this state (this is an extremely rare
condition), two of the Announc ement Ports on the circuit pac k (one of
which is the record por t) will be unusable by software. Als o, save/restore
announcements will not work since the record p ort looks busy to the
circuit pack. No te that software does not have any way of knowing thi s and
attempts to use the ports.
If the circuit pac k is locked into this state, the following symptoms are
observed:
1. When attempting to record an announc ement, users hear the
proper record tone, b ut the announcement does not rec ord (they
do not know it until the announcement is p layed back).
2. Performing a test board long when the circuit pack is in this state
yields the following abo rt codes:
Ports 1 AND 9 abort Test #206 with code 1024
FAIL Test failed. Announcements played back on this port may sound
corrupted.
1. Reset the circuit pack via the reset board PCSS command and then
run this test again. If the test continues to fail, replace the circuit pack
(see Warning).
2. If there are recurring alarms on this port caused by this test failing,
replace the circuit pack even if Step 1 works (see Warning).
!WARNI NG:
Replacing the circuit pack results in loss of integrated
announcements. Refer to "‘‘General Notes’’near the beginning of this
Maintenance procedure.
PASS This test verifies that the Angel processor can properly set up this port for
playbacks. User-reported troubles on this circ uit pack should be
investigated using other port and circuit p ack tests. (Refer to "ANN-BD
(Announcement Circuit Pack)" Maintenance documentation for a
description of the circuit pac k tests.)
