Error Counters for FF Alarm Keys

The following counters determine when FF alarm keys light.

FFalarm keys light when an error counter exceeds the specified number within 24 hours. FF alarm keys can indicate the following types of alarms:

Red alarms

Loss of signal alarms

Sync loss alarms

Yellow alarms

Slip alarms

Frame loss alarms.

In most cases, the default values for the error counters do not need to be changed.

The alarm keys can be assigned to any key telephone. However, the keys will only work on a non-attendant phone that has the programming authorization code (#98 9999) activated. With attendant phones, the keys work whether or not the programming authorization code is activated.

For instructions on programming FF alarms keys, see page 4-35.

Note: Once the alarm condition is corrected, the FF alarm key will remain lit until the end of the 24-hour period, unless you enter the “historical error clearance” command. For a description of this command, see page 4-38.
