11-40 Star Remote System alarm clearing procedures
PM STAR
minor
Alarm display
CM
Indication
The alarm code STAR under the PM subsystem header indicates a STAR
alarm. The absence of *C* or M under the STAR indicates a minor alarm. The
number n before STAR indicates the number of STARs with a minor alarm.
Meaning
The number n of STARs are in the in-service trouble (ISTb) state.
Impact
The in-service trouble condition does not have a direct effect on service
because one unit of the STAR continues to provide service. However, there is
no local backup. If the alarm indicates a local line drawer or remote line drawer
(RLD) is affected, subscribers connected to the line drawer or RLD are
affected. If the other unit of the STAR fails, service is interrupted.
Common procedures
None

The following flowchart is a summary of the procedure. Use the instructions
in the step-action procedure that follows the flowchart to clear the alarm.
