Expansion Interface Control Channel Test (#316)
This test is nondestructive. If an EI circuit pack is a standby EI circuit pack (amber
LED off) or if the EI is active in the PN (amber LED on), this test queries the EI
circuit pack for its circuit pack type and vintage information. If the EI circuit pack is
an active EI circuit pack in the PN (amber LED on long off short) the Expansion
Interface Control Channel test checks to see if the EI circuit pack can
communicate with other circuit packs in the PN using the PN TDM bus.

Result Description / Recommendation
2000 ABORT Response to the test request was not received within the allowable time period.
2100 ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
2500 ABORT Internal system error
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 3 times.
Any FAIL The EI circuit pack responded incorrectly or if it is the PN active EI circuit pack,
it could not talk to PN circuit packs.
1. If the active EI circuit pack in the PN is failing and duplicated Port Network
Connectivity is enabled, attempt to switch to the standby PNC using the
reset PNC interchange command.
2. Repeat the short test sequence.
3. If test continues to fail, reset the EI circuit pack via the reset board
UUCSS command.
4. If the EI circuit pack in the PN is failing, enter display errors and display
alarms, and resolve any TDM-CLK, TONE-BD, or SYNC alarms or errors.
5. Repeat the short test sequence.
6. If test continues to fail, replace the circuit pack or transceiver.
PASS The EI circuit pack did respond correctly to test. Communication from software
to the EI circuit pack is functioning.
1. Refer to other EI circuit pack tests if the link is not functioning correctly.
0NO
BOARD
No board was detected by the test.
1. Resolve either wrong board (Error 125) or no board (Error 131) issues.
2. Check that the board is properly translated and inserted. If so, check for
hyperactivity (Error 1538). If hyperactive, use the reset board UUCSS
command.
3. Run the test again. If it fails, the ID chip on board may be bad. Replace
the board and retest.
