Failing Item
6984
High Speed Link (HSL) loop status message.
An HSL loop has switched to its alternate path. This is an informational
SRC only.
Word 7 of the SRC contains the loop number in the leftmost 4 digits. The
loop number is in hexadecimal format. You must convert the hexadecimal
loop number into decimal format to recognize the loop number in HSM.
This SRC can be caused by a tower on the HSL loop powering off.
This SRC may also appear in the SAL with a B600 6982 or B600 6981
logged at approximately the same time. In that case the other SRC is
reporting a failure and this SRC is reporting that the alternate HSL path is
now being used. Service the other SRC if present.
