c. Physical link cannot be set up, usually because of hardware problems such
as power off or cable disconnect. The PMS Printer Link physical link is
down due to the following causes: cable to the printer device is
disconnected, the printer device is powered off, or the data extension
where the printer device connects to has been busied out. The Aux Data
field contains the Channel ID of Data Channels on Network Control circuit
pack (that is, 3 for Channel 01, 4 for Channel 02, 5 for Channel 03, 6 for
Channel 04). Check the connectivity of wire and cable among wall jacket,
data module, and the printer device. Enter status data <extension> and
verify that the data extension of the printer device is in the in-service/idle
state. If the data extension is not available, then refer to the ‘‘Procedures
for Restoring the PMS Printer Link’’ section for resolution.
d. Link idle timer; link comes down. This error indicates that the printer device
is in an off-line state, for example, paper jam or paper out for a printer
device. Check the printer device and act promptly to put it back to on-line
state. Enter test journal wakeup-log|pms-log command to set up the
printer link.
