two minutes (the test still runs even if Alarm Origination is disabled). The
two-minute delay allows a remote INADS technician time enough to hang up the
call and thus free up the INADS line so that the switch can call INADS back. As
error conditions are encountered, errors are logged against INADS. Error codes
1 through 9 can be logged if the test result was "Command successfully
completed" and Error Codes 10 and 11 can be logged if the test result was
"Command failed." An error is also logged against INADS if the call to INADS
finally succeeds. The INADS software (release 3.2 or later) recognizes this
special "test inads" type of alarm and automatically opens and then closes a
trouble ticket which indicates that the reason for the trouble ticket is a command
is in progress or the system has active alarms which must be reported to INADS.
The "Command successfully completed" means the switch will start the attempt
to call INADS in two minutes (the test still runs even if Alarm Origination is
disabled). The two-minute delay allows a remote INADS technician time enough
to hang up the call and thus free up the INADS line so that the switch can call
INADS back. As error conditions are encountered, errors are logged against
INADS. Error codes 1 through 9 can be logged if the test result was "Command
successfully completed" and Error Codes 10 and 11 can be logged if the test
result was "Command failed." An error is also logged against INADS if the call to
INADS finally succeeds. The INADS software (release 3.2 or later) recognizes
this special "test inads" type of alarm and automatically opens and then closes a
trouble ticket which indicates that the reason for the trouble ticket is a test
inads-link command. The trouble ticket alarm contains a TESTING INADS LINK
description field.
After entering the command, it may take as long a nine minutes for the switch to
place the call and for INADS to respond. The Error Log should be examined (use
the category inads) 10 minutes after successfully entering the command to
determine if the call was successful.
Use the following table to interpret the Error Log entries.
