Lamp Test
The Lamp test is a test of the status indicators (LEDs)
on the DSU’s DCP (both models) and the LCDs on the
Model 3610’s DCP and SDCP. When the Lamp test is
performed on the Model 3611, the alarm output is
activated as well.
To access the Lamp test from the top-level menu, make
the following selections:
•

Results
If all LEDs are functioning, all the indicators on the
Model 3610 DCP are flashing steadily. In a
COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier, the indicators on the
SDCP remain ON. The LCD on the DCP or SDCP
alternately flashes solid blocks, moving from position to
position on the display, until the test is aborted. The LCD
on the DCP flashes the following display until the test is
aborted.

If any character indicator appears nonfunctional, the
DCP should be replaced. If any of the LEDs do not work,
the circuit card should be replaced.
In carrier-mounted applications, a relay operates the
alarm output contacts, making a clicking sound until the
test is aborted.
Pressing any key except the key will stop the LCD
portion of the Lamp test and return you to the DSU Test
menu to abort the test.
