MAINT (PN’s Maintenance Circuit Pack)
Issue 1 May 2002

Sanity Handshake Test (#106)
This test checks the ability of an PN’s Maintenance circuit pack’s to respond to
queries. A message is sent to the PN’s Maintenance circuit pack which then
sends a message back. If the response message is received, then the
Maintenance circuit pack is queried for the PN cabinet type (valid PN cabinet
types are single carrier and multicarrier cabinets). The Maintenance circuit pack
reads pins on the backplane of carrier A that identify the type of cabinet and report
this information. If a valid cabinet type is returned, then the test passes.

Result Description / Recommendation
ABORT Internal system error.
1000 ABORT System resources required for this test are not available.
2000 ABORT Response to cabinet query was not received in the allowable time period.
2033 ABORT Internal system error.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
2046 ABORT The PN’s Maintenance circuit pack reported an invalid cabinet type. Not
knowing the cabinet type of the PN will prevent all PN environment
maintenance from running.
1. Retry the command.
2. If the test continues to abort with 2046, then either the PN’s Maintenance
circuit pack is defective, or the PN cabinet’s wiring is defective. First,
replace the Maintenance circuit pack.
3. If the test continues to abort with 2046, then the PN cabinet’s wiring is
defective in the A carrier, and the PN’s Maintenance circuit pack cannot
read the backplane pins to determine the cabinet type.
