NPE Crosstalk Test (#6)
The NPE Crosstalk test verifies that this port’s NPE channel talks on the selected
time slot and never crosses over to time slots reserved for other connections. If
the NPE is not working correctly, one way and noisy connections may be
observed. This test is usually only part of a port’s long test sequence and
executes in approximately 20 to 30 seconds.

Result Description / Recommendation
ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
1000 ABORT The port was seized by a user for a valid call.
1. Use the display port UUCSSpp command to determine the trunk
group/member number of the port. Use the status trunk command to
determine the service state of the port. If the port is active, wait until it is
idle before testing.
2. If the port status is active but the port is idle (no calls), check the error log
for error type 1025 (see the error log table for a description of this error and
required actions). The port may be locked up. Check the CO wiring, check
for excessive loop current, and check the trunk translations. (If the trunk is
translated incorrectly, this test will abort.)
3. If the port status is idle, busyout and release the trunk, and retry the
command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
4. If the test still aborts, replace the circuit pack.
1001 ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
1002 ABORT The system could not allocate time slots for the test. The system may be under
heavy traffic conditions or it may have time slots out-of-service due to
TDM-BUS errors.
1. If the system has no TDM-BUS errors and is not handling heavy traffic,
retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
1003 ABORT The system could not allocate a tone receiver for the test. The system may be
oversized for the number of Tone Detectors present, or some Tone Detectors
may be out of service.
1. Resolve any TTR-LEV errors.
2. Resolve any TONE-PT errors.
3. If neither condition exists, retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5
times.
