3. If the CPE side LOS indication on CSU B is on (active), chec k for a
problem between the CPE side of CSU B and the DS1 CONV B
circuit pack. Conn ectors, cables, and the CSU B may need to be
replaced .
4. If the CSU A and the CSU B do not provide visual CPE side and
DS1 facility side LOS indications, follow the repair procedure that is
given for error type #1025 (Loss of Frame Alignmen t). Apply the
procedure first to the DS1 CONV B side instead of the DS1 CONV A
where the error is reported (external loop back test is not exp ected
to pass if we execute it at this end as long as we have the LOS
indication).
Repair procedure for error typ e #1025 (Loss of Frame Alignment)
includes execution of Near -end External Loopback test #799. If the
system is not configured as a C ritical Reliability System and if there
is only one DS1 facility, then the test #799 can only be exec uted at
the end which is closer to the SPE relative to the DS1 CONV circuit
pack at the end of the DS1 CONV Complex. If the test c annot be
executed for that reason, then still make the exter nal loopback as if
the test was going to be ex ecuted, but instead of executing the test,
check the green LED at the face p late of the DS1 CONV B that is
associated with this DS1 facility. If the green LED is off, then rep lace
the connectors, cab les, and the CSU B.
5. If the problem still persists, rep lace the DS1 CONV circuit pac k at
the other end of the DS1 CONV Complex.
6. If the problem still persists, rep lace this DS1 CONV circuit pac k.
If D4 framing is used, an in-ba nd alarm signal (RFA) is transmitted that
corrupts transmit data in resp onse to this alarm.
j. More than 17 misframe errors occurred. This error will clear when there are
no misframes for 1 hour.
1. Enter display errors and follow the associated repair p rocedures
for any SYNC, TDM-CLK, or SNC-BD errors.
2. Verify that the DS1 facility and the network are using the same Line
Coding. For TN574 boards and TN1654 b oards in T1 mode, also
verify that the Framing Mode used is the same . Use list fibers and
display fiber-link commands to c heck the values for this DS1
facility. Contact T1 Network Service to check the mod es used by
1. ;DS1 facility may be a private line or it may be connected to the Network. Network
Interface (NI) point is where the customer’s maintenance responsibility ends and the DS1
facility vendor’s maintenance responsibility begins. This point ideally is the T, R, T1, and
R1 terminals on the rear of the CSU to which the wires of the DS1 facility vendor’s DS1
facility is attached. If the NI does not occur at this point, then any cabling between the
CSU terminals and the NI is also considered to be part of the CPE. This cable typically
runs between the DS1 facility terminals of the CSU and a cross-connect field where the
DS1 facility vendor has terminated the DS1 facility. Maintenance responsibility for this
portion of the DS1 facility resides with the customer unless other arrangements are made.
