Communication Manager Maintenance-Object Repair Procedures
494 Maintenance Procedures for Avaya Communication Manager 3.0, Media Gateways and Servers
ASAI-PT
S8700 | 8710 / S8500
Unless otherwise stated, every maintenance action contained in this section applies to ASAI-PT
and ISDN-BRI ports connected to ASAI adjuncts. This port type is administered as an ASAI-BD
on the TN800 circuit pack.
The TN800 circuit pack is a PC-based platform that allows interaction of multiple applications
with Avaya™ Communication Manager. Communication Manager software (native mode)
supports emulation of three types of port MOs on this board. The type of ports to be emulated
are defined by the applications running on the TN800. The TN800 can support up to 32 ports
(time slots) at a time.
The TN800 connects to the switch through a single slot in the backplane, however its width is
not limited to one slot. The number of slots occupied by the TN800 is supplied by the board
during its insertion. The TN800 (Release 5 and higher) is three slots wide. The blank (reserve)
slots are to the left of the functional slot.
In non-native mode the TN800 is recognized as TN556, TN2181, TN754, or TN746 based on
the switch software and the application running on the TN800. In non-native mode only one
type of port MO runs at any time, and the port type depends on the application running on the
TN800. If the TN800 fails diagnostics in non-native mode, the system’s alarm and error logs
would show a failure for the board type the TN800 is emulating.

1. The alarm level for ASAI adjunct ports may be administered using set options. The alarm level
can be set independently for on- and off-board alarms toWARNING, MINOR, or MAJOR for every
ASAI adjunct port in the system.
2. All alarming for an ASAI adjunct and off-board alarming for an ASAI port is disabled if the ASAI
adjunct asks the switch to suspend maintenance. When this occurs, an error and a WARNING
alarm is logged against the ASAI adjunct. Check the Hardware Error and Alarm Logs to see if the
adjunct has disabled alarming.
