Help Messages
If the system technician presses HELP after entering "test customer-alarm" on a
simplex SPE system, the following message will be displayed:
Enter [cabinet(1-3)],[’long’ or ’short’],
[’repeat’(1-100) or ’clear’], [’schedule’]
If the system technician presses HELP after entering "test customer-alarm" on a
duplex SPE system the following message will be displayed:
For cabinet 1 enter [cabinet(1)];
carrier (A-B),[’long’ or ’short’],
[’repeat’(1-100) or ’clear’], [’schedule’]
For cabinet 2-3 enter cabinet(2-3),[’long’ or ’short’],
[’repeat’(1-100) or ’clear’], [’schedule’]
location The location designates the physical position of the desired
customer-alarm circuit pack. The location consists of a cabinet number
and carrier letter. The cabinet number is one or two digits from 1 to 3
with leading zeros allowed. Cabinet 1 is the PPN with 2-3 referring to
some optional EPN. The carrier is either "a" or "b" for cabinet 1 for SPE
duplex systems. For SPE simplex systems, when selecting cabinet 1,
the carrier must be "a" if entered. For cabinets 2-3, the carrier must be
"a" if entered.
short This will cause test number 115 to run.
long This will cause test number 115 to run and is the same as the short
sequence.
repeat number The "number" specifies how many times each test in the sequence is to
be repeated. "Number" may be any integer between 1 and 100.
clear This option causes the test sequence (short or long) to repeat until the
alarm (if one exists against the maintenance object) is cleared or a
single test in the sequence fails. If no alarms are registered against the
maintenance object then the test sequence will be exercised only
once. The clear option forces a clear of all alarms if no errors are
encountered during testing.
schedule When the "schedule" option is specified, the command is validated and
then a scheduling form is displayed to allow the technician to schedule
execution of the command. The command is then placed in the
command queue and is executed at the specified time. The
information displayed by the command is sent to the system printer
instead of the screen. Refer to the Report Scheduler and System
Printer feature specification [1] for more details.
