ASAI-PT
Unless otherwise stated, all maintenance actions contained in this section apply
to ASAI-PT and ISDN-BRI ports connected to ASAI adjuncts. This port type is
administered as an ASAI-BD on the TN800 circuit pack.
The TN800 circuit pack is a PC-based platform that allows interaction of multiple
applications with DEFINITY at any time. DEFINITY Release 5 software (Native
mode) will support emulation of three types of port MOs on this board. The type
of ports to be emulated are defined by the applications running on the TN800.
The TN800 can support a maximum of 32 ports (time slots) at a time.
The TN800 connects to the switch through a single slot in the backplane,
however its width is not limited to one slot. The number of slots occupied by the
TN800 is supplied by the board during its insertion. The TN800 in Release 5 is 3
slots wide. The blank (reserve) slots are to the left of the functional slot.
In non-native mode the TN800 is recognized as TN556, TN2181, TN754, or
TN746 based on the switch software and the application running on the TN800.
In non-native mode only one type of port MOs will run at any time, and the port
type depends on the application running on the TN800. If the TN800 fails
diagnostics in non-native mode, the system’s alarm and error logs would show a
failure for the board type the TN800 is emulating.
1. Where P is the port network number (1 for PPN and 2 or 3 for EPN); C is the carrier designation
(for example, A, B, C, or D); and SS is the address of the slot in the carrier where the circuit
pack is located (for example, 01, 02, ..., and so forth).
2. The alarm level for ASAI adjunct ports may be administered using the set options command.
The alarm level can be set independently for off-board and on-board alarms to WARNING,
MINOR, or MAJOR for all ASAI adjunct ports in the system.
3. All alarming for an ASAI adjunct and off-board alarming for an ASAI port is disabled if the ASAI
adjunct asks the switch to suspend maintenance. When this occurs, an error and a WARNING
alarm is logged against the ASAI adjunct. Check the Hardware Error and Alarm Logs to see
if the adjunct has disabled alarming.
