Maintenance circuit pack and reports the results. The test has no effect on the external device
itself.

1000 ABRT System resources required to run this test are not available.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
2000 ABRT Response to the test request was not received within the allowable time
period.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
2. If the test continues to ABORT with error code 2000, check for system
powering problems with the A carrier. Look for and resolve all
AC-POWER alarms. Then, repeat the test.
3. If the test continues to ABORT with a 2000 error code, check for and
resolve all SYSAM errors. Then, repeat the test.

ABRT Internal system error
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
ANY FAIL The External Device Alarm has been activated by the external device.
1. Clear the major alarm on the external device, and rerun the test.
2. If the test still fails, then disconnect the External Device Alarms from
the Maintenance circuit pack and rerun the test.
3. If the test still fails, then there is a problem with the Maintenance circuit
pack that is reporting the alarm. This circuit pack should be replaced.
There are failures that can occur on Maintenance circuit pack’s that will
not be detected by their respective maintenance, but which will cause
many environment tests to fail. If many environment tests are failing,
the suspect circuit pack should be replaced and the test rerun.
PASS If there is a problem with the external device, but the Maintenance circuit
pack connected to the device reports no alarm, then the External Device
may not be properly reporting the problems or the External Device may not
be properly connected to the External Device.
