Data Module Audits Test (#17)
This is a series of six tests that are classified as hardware audits. The processor
sends messages to the on-board microprocessor to perform the following tests:
■ Switchhook Inquiry — This is an update of the processor’s software
records based on the on-hook/off-hook status of the data module.
■ Bad Scan Inquiry — A message is sent uplink that contains a count
generated by certain events relating to the digital loop’s (link) conditions.
This could be an indication of communication problems between the
processor and digital port board.
■ EPF inquiry — The status of the Electronic Power Feed is sent uplink. EPF
is not used for data modules.
■ ID Request — A request is made to the data module for its status. The
data module sends its configuration information and health information
back. This information is checked and a pass/fail result is provided.
■ Ringer Update — This updates the data module’s ringer state according to
processor records.
■ Translation Update — This is a message normally used with digital stations
to refresh the default value that causes the station to send touch tones only
in the primary information channel. This test is not used with data
modules.

Result Description / Recommendation
1 ABORT Switchhook audit timed out.
1. Verify the data module is connected to the PBX and repeat the test.
2. If the test aborts, replace the data module and repeat the test.
3. If the test continues to abort, replace the circuit pack and repeat the test.
2 ABORT ID request fails, health bit is defective, or no response from on-board
microprocessor.
1. Verify that the correct data module type (PDM versus TDM) is administered.
2. If the test aborts, replace the data module and repeat the test.
3. If the test aborts, replace the circuit pack and repeat the test.
3 ABORT No response from EPF audit.
4 ABORT Internal system error
1. Resolve any outstanding circuit pack maintenance problems.
2. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
