UDS1-BD (UDS1 Interface Circuit Pack)
Far CSU Loopback Test (#1213)
This test is destructive.
The Far CSU Loopback (R-LLB) Test causes a loopback at the far-end CSU and
tests all circuitry and facilities from the local DS1 board to the far-end CSU.
The test is destructive and can only be initiated by a system technician demanded
test ds1-loop UUCSS far-csu-loopback-test-begin command.
All trunks or ports on the UDS1 Interface circuit pack must be busied out using the
system technician busyout board command before running the Far CSU
Loopback Test.
If the far-end CSU is not a 120A1 CSU Module or the 401A T1 Sync Splitter, and
the DS1 is administered for ami-zcs line coding, density protection must be
disabled on the CSU/T1SS during the test due to the large number of zero's in the
3-in-24 test pattern.
The Far CSU Loopback Test has the UDS1 Interface circuit pack transmit a
loopback activation code to the remote CSU, waits up to 15 seconds for return of
the code to verify the loopback has been established, transmits a framed 3-in-24
test pattern, begins counting bit errors in the received test pattern, and returns a
PASS result. If the loopback is not established within the 15 seconds, the test
fails.
The status of the Far CSU Loopback test is available in the hardware error log via
Error Type 3901. Several distinct Aux values give the user information of the
status of the test.
The list measurements ds1 summary command will display the length of time
the test has been running (Test Duration field) and number of bit errors
detected (Loopback/Span Test Bit-Error Count field). If the test pattern is
being passed through the loopback cleanly, the number of bit errors should be
very low. The command will also display the type of Loopback/Span test executing
(Test field), the type of pattern generated for the type of Loopback/Span test
(Pattern field), and whether the pattern (i.e. 3-in-24 Pattern) is synchronized
(Synchronized field).
To terminate the test, enter the test ds1-loop UUCSS end-loopback/span-test
command or the release board command. Using the release board command
will restore all trunks or ports on the UDS1 Interface circuit pack to the in-service
state.
