Figure 6-10. Channel Module Testing with Local T1 Loopback or Out-of-Service T1 System  

Once a system is in-service, avoid using T1 loopbacks to test individual channels, because the entire 
T1 circuit is out-of-service while the loopback is active. 

6.6  Troubleshooting 

This section presents a general approach to troubleshooting an ACS-160 Series system, including 

 

Basic guidelines 

 

Typical troubleshooting procedure 

 

Explanation of alerts and alarms generated by the ACS-160 Series multiplexer 

Figure 6-11 shows basic trouble categories.
