PDMODULE (Processor Data Module)
Issue 1 June 2005 1763
Data Module Audits Test (#17)
This is a series of six tests that are classified as hardware audits. The processor sends
messages to the on-board microprocessor to perform the following tests:
● Switchhook Inquiry: This is an update of the processor’s software records based on the
on-hook/off-hook status of the data module.
● Bad Scan Inquiry: A message is sent uplink that contains a count generated by certain
events relating to the digital loop’s (link) conditions. This could be an indication of
communication problems between the processor and digital port board.
7 FAIL Conference test failed on the primary information channel. In some cases,
user may not notice disruption in service. In extreme cases, conferencing
feature may not work at all.
14 FAIL The primary information channel is not transmitting properly. User impact
may range from noticing nothing to not being able to use this port.
15 FAIL The control channel between the processor and Digital Line circuit pack is
not transmitting properly. This can cause a wide range of effects. The
user may notice nothing or the port may be totally unusable. This could
also disrupt other users.
1. Run circuit pack tests to check the Tone Generator and the Tone
Detector circuit packs using test board location short.
2. Resolve any problems that are detected on the Tone Generator
circuit pack or Tone Detector circuit pack.
3. If the Tone Generator and Tone Detector circuit packs are functioning
properly, and the test still fails, replace the Digital Line circuit pack.
16 FAIL The secondary information is not transmitting properly. This can cause a
wide range of effects. The user may notice nothing or the port may be
totally unusable.
1. To be sure that this is not an intermittent problem, repeat this test up
to up to 10 times to make sure it continues to pass.
2. If complaints still exist (poor data transmission), examine the data
module, connections, and wiring.
PASS Information and Control Channel Local Loop test passed. Every channel is
transmitting properly.
