Power-Up Self-Test - Paradyne 3163 User Manual

Power-Up Self-Test

After you connect the DSU/CSU to a power source, the
unit performs the power-up self-test to ensure that it is in
good working order. The DSU/CSU performs this test on
itself upon power-up or after a device reset, unless it has
been disabled by the Self-Test configuration option (see
Appendix C, Configuration
The self-test includes a basic processor test, a limited
memory test, a code checksum test, and basic verification
tests of the internal components. The front panel LCD
displays the progress and pass/fail status of these
power-up tests.

Procedure
The power-up self-test consists of the following steps:
1. Once the DSU/CSU is plugged in, the In Progress

Off continuously.

If the self-test fails, the Failed screen appears for
five seconds. The Fail LED lights, and an
eight-digit failure code (xxxxxxxx) is displayed for
use by service personnel to determine the cause of
the self-test failure. The DSU/CSU continues to
try to operate. If you are in doubt about the results
of the self-test, use the Self-Test Health command
to display the status of this test (see the
Health section in Chapter 4, Maintenance).
