4.3.3.5 SWITCH MAJOR ALARMS 1
These screens display the RCS20 major alarms, and allow the user to mask these alarms. When an
alarm is masked, the error will not be reported on the front panel MAJOR ALARM lamp nor on the
ALARM connector at the rear of the RCS20. The RAM/ROM alarm indicates a failure of the RCS20
internal memory. The BACKUP UNAVAILABLE alarm indicates that a prime channel modem has failed,
but there was no backup channel modem available for backup, causing prime channel traffic to be
dropped. The BACKUP ERROR alarm indicates that the prime channel modem configuration could not be
loaded to a backup channel modem, thus a required automatic backup could not take place, causing
prime channel traffic to be dropped.
CAUTION
Masking alarms may cause undesirable modem performance
