To force the system to send a restart message to all circuit packs on a network,
try one of the following methods depending on the circumstances:
NOTE:
A circuit pack functioning normally (that is, not in the reset state) ignores
the restart message.
Procedure 1 (Nondestructive)
Execute the Idle Time Slot Test (#294) by issuing the command
test tdm P
when
the control channel is on the same TDM Bus as it was when the circuit pack
entered the reset state. If using this method is not feasible, try the other
procedures in this section.
Procedure 2 (Nondestructive)
if you are at the site
: Reseat the circuit pack. This action causes the circuit pack
that was in the reset state to begin functioning on the
current Control Channel
bus.
Procedure 2 (Nondestructive)
Execute the Idle Time Slot Test (#294) by issuing the command
test tdm P
when
the control channel is on the same TDM Bus as it was when the circuit pack
entered the reset state. If using this method is not feasible, try the other
procedures in the section.
Procedure 3 (Destructive)
Reset the port network that contains the circuit pack that is in the reset state.
When a network is reset, two restart messages, one on the control channel of
each TDM Bus, are sent to each circuit pack on the network. Executing the
reset
system L
command (where L=2, 3, 4, or 5) resets all networks in the system.
!
WARNING:
The
reset system
command disrupts all calls in the system.
Procedure 4 (Destructive)
Execute the
recycle carrier PC
command where P is the Port Network Number
of the network containing the circuit pack and C is the designation of the carrier
containing the circuit pack.
!
WARNING:
This command removes power and returns power to the designated
Medium cabinet port carrier. Thus, any other circuit packs on this carrier is
also temporarily taken out-of-service.
