Power-Up Self-Test - Paradyne ACCULINK 316x Operator's Manual

Power-Up Self-Test

After you connect the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU to a power
outlet, the power-up self-test is performed to ensure that
the unit 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
Options).
The 3161 DSU/CSU performs the same power-up
self-test except that progress is not reported on the SDCP
during the test. However, you can use the Self-Test Health
command to display the status of the test (see Self-Test
Health section in Chapter 3, Operation).
The self-test includes a basic CPU test, a limited RAM
test, a code checksum test, and basic verification tests of
its internal components. The front panel LCD displays the
progress and pass/fail status of these power-up tests.
The power-up self-test consists of the following steps:
1. Once the DSU/CSU is plugged in, the In Progress
screen appears and the Fail LED blinks ON and
Off continuously.
Self-Test:

2. All the LEDs then start to flash simultaneously in
the pattern twice ON, then Off. Then, the LCD
begins to flash characters and numbers in the same
pattern, alternating with the flashing LEDs.
