Battery & Battery Charger Query Test (#5)
This test queries the Maintenance/Tape Processor in a multicarrier cabinet PPN
system without High or Critical Reliability, the Duplication Interface circuit pack in
a PPN for a High or Critical Reliability system, or the EPN Maintenance circuit
pack in an EPN for the status of the battery pack and battery charger, and reports
the result. During this test, the status LED battery charger is lit and extinguished if
the status of the battery charger is reported as normal. This event is a result of
checking that the battery charger is connected.

Result Description/Recommendation
1000 ABORT System resources required to run this test are not available.
1. Retry the command at one-minute intervals a maximum of 5
times.
1005 ABORT The battery charger is not connected. If the system has a UPS and
no battery charger and batteries, ignore this error since the
batteries and charger are not required with certain UPSs.
1. Verify that the battery charger is switched on.
2. Unplug one battery.
3. Switch off the charger and remove its white power cord.
4. Verify that the power cord has at least 106 VAC.
5. Verify that the connector on the rear of the charger is properly
inserted.
6. Re-insert the charger power cord and switch on the charger.
7. Plug the battery back in.
8. Run the test environment. The batteries will probably need
charging and may be drained if there were power outages.
Reconnect the battery charger to allow the batteries to
recharge. If test #5 is run before the batteries are completely
charged, the test will fail with Error Code 2. If Abort 1005
occurs again, escalate the problem.
9. Wait 30 hours and rerun the test.
