F. Functional Test by
Entering Commands
1.00 Introduction
1. You can execute diagnostic testing during on-
line communication by entering test
commands at the maintenance terminal
(VT220, VT100, Compatibles, Dumb terminal,
Attendant Console).
2. Execute this functional test in the following
cases.
• When new devices are installed
• When the device combination is changed
• When system detects an alarm or an error
message appears in the error log
• When device status becomes “Fault”
• When a number of telephone instruments
don't function properly
3. There are three kinds of tests as follows.
(a) Card Test
If multiple numbers of extensions do not
function well, you can detect whether
troubles are caused by the card or the
telephone instruments by this test.
(b) Port Test
(c) PITS and ATT (Attendant Console) Test
* Test (b), (c) are executed to detect troubles
when telephone instruments don't function
well while card status is good.
4. This functional test must be done during
on-line communication mode both at on-site
and from a remote location. For remote
access, a data terminal and modem are
required at a remote location, and you must
install the RMT card in the system and assign
Remote Directory Number to the system in
system programming operation “Remote
Directory Number”.
Refer to Section 15-B-2.00 “System
Administration from a Remote Location” for
details.
5. Functional test can be done only when you
log in to the system by entering the 1st level
password.
6. When you perform a device (shelf, card, port,
resource) test, the status of the device to be
tested must be changed to “Out of service”
by entering the OUS command in advance.
If an attempt is made to test a device in “INS”
status, the following message appears on the
screen.
“Invalid Status”
7. You can test a device in “Fault” status.
8. If the device test results in failure, first change
the status of the device to “Fault” and replace
it with a normal one if necessary.
9. It is impossible to execute functional test
during off-line communication mode.
10.The <CANCEL>, <NEXT> or <PREV> keys
do not function during the test.
