EXT-DEV ADMIN? Y (External Device Alarm)
Issue 1 June 2005 1249
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 Alarm Leads
from the Maintenance circuit pack and rerun the test.
3. If the test still fails, then there is a problem with the analog external
device alarm port or the Maintenance circuit pack that is reporting the
alarm. This circuit pack should be replaced. There are failures that can
occur on the Maintenance circuit pack that will not be detected by their
respective maintenance, but that 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 administered analog
line external device alarm, or the administered 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 Alarm Leads.
