Parameters
physical location
In addition to entering the word “physical” the system technician
must specify the physical location. For an administered external
device alarm analog line port, a “physical location” represents the
physical position of the port to be tested and is entered as
UUcSSpp
where “
UU
” represents the cabinet number (1-MAX_
CABS), “
c
” represents the carrier, “
SS
” represents the slot position,
and “
pp
” represents the circuit.
Since the “maintenance board” alarm connections connect to
control carrier boards that are in unnumbered slots, the standard
port format cannot be used to designate these alarm connections.
The special ports
UUmajor
and
UUminor
are used designate the
major or minor maintenance board alarm connection for cabinet UU.
NOTE:
The special locations
UUmajor
and
UUminor
designate the
name of the major or minor maintenance circuit pack alarm
connection for cabinet UU (depends upon the auxiliary
connector of the Port Network). Thus, both a “major” and
“minor” port can be administered with major, minor, or
warning alarms.
The “all” location is used to test all administered external device
alarm ports on analog line boards and maintenance boards.
repeat number
The “number” specifies how many times the “test physical location”
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 MO) 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.
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 specifications [1] for more details.
