Digital Terminal Remote Loop Around Test
(#1201)
This test checks the integrity of the connection between the SPE and the
attached Digital Terminal and the ability of the terminal and the associated port to
send and receive data. This test is based, in principal, on procedure 622 used in
system 85 to help isolate digital terminal problems.
A request is presented to the terminal to go into loop back mode. Then data is
sent to the terminal and when received back, checked for consistency. This test
is run as a part of the craft command "test long" procedure. It is not included in
any error recovery strategy and generates no Error Log entries or alarms. To
begin the test, Maintenance will ask Call Processing to make the associated end
point and port “ Maintenance Busy”. This test will succeed if the endpoint is "idle".
If the reserve request fails then the test will abort. If the request succeeds then
the SPE sends a message to loop around both information channels for the
digital terminal. First the primary information (voice, Information Channel 1 or I1)
channel loop back test is run. The test is performed by sending a digital count
from the Tone/Clock circuit pack on the primary information channel time slot and
receiving the same digital count with a general purpose tone detector.
If the primary information channel test is successful, the loop around test for the
secondary information (data, Information Channel 2 or I2) channel is then
performed. This test is the same as the primary information channel loop around
test and is performed only if a DTDM is administered, which is also the case for a
linked DA.
Only one value (Pass. Fail, or Abort) is generated as a result of the two tests run.
If any test fails aborts, the sequence is stopped. Upon completion of this test the
associated endpoint and port are moved back into the previous service state.
