Alarms, Errors, and Troubleshooting
Asynchronous Method
The asynchronous method requires a Maintenance/Test circuit pack to be present
in the system. In this method, 4 commands are used to start, stop, list, and query
an outgoing ISDN-PRI test call:
Before placing an outgoing ISDN-PRI test call, verify that the feature access code
has been administered on the System Features form, and that the far-end test line
number and TestCall Bearer Capability Class (BCC) have been administered on
the Trunk Group Administration form. Furthermore, if the ISDN-PRI trunk is the
cbc (call by call) service type, then the Testcall Service field on the Trunk
Group Administration form must have been administered also.
To initiate an outgoing ISDN-PRI test call with the asynchronous method, issue
the start command listed above, which enables you to specify a specific the trunk
on which to originate the ISDN-PRI test call. An optional qualifier can be used
that specifies in minutes (1 to 120) the duration of the test call. If no duration is
specified, the default is either 8.4 or 9.6 seconds.
Screen 4-1 shows a typical response to the test isdn-testcall command:
