ANN-PT (Announcement Port)
Issue 4 May 2002
10-163 555-233-123
Notes:
a. The Announcement circuit pack can exhibit a condition that does not allow
recording.
If the circuit pack gets locked into this state (this is an extremely rare
condition), two of the Announcement Ports on the circuit pack (one of
which is the record port) will be unusable by software. Also, save/restore
announcements will not work, since the record port looks busy to the
circuit pack. Note that software does not have any way of knowing this and
attempts to use the ports.
If the circuit pack is locked into this state, the following symptoms are
observed:
1. When attempting to record an announcement, users hear the proper
record tone, but the announcement does not record (they do not
know it until the announcement is played back).
255 FAIL Test failed. The Announcement Port and the Tone Detector
never synchronized. Check for active GPTD-PT errors, and
refer to “GPTD-PT [General Purpose Tone Detector Port
(CPTR)]” Maintenance documentation to diagnose them first.
1. If there are no active GPTD-PT errors, reset the circuit
pack via the reset board PCSS command and then run
this test again. If the test continues to fail, replace the
circuit pack (see Warning).
2. If there are recurring alarms on this port caused by this
test failing, replace the circuit pack even if Step 1 works
(see Warning).
!
WARNING:
Replacing the circuit pack results in loss of integrated
announcements. Refer to “General Notes” near the
beginning of this Maintenance procedure.
PASS This port can cleanly play announcements. User-reported
troubles on this pack should be investigated using other port
and circuit pack tests. Refer to “ANN-BD (Announcement
Circuit Pack)” Maintenance documentation for a description of
the circuit pack tests.
