System Technician-Demanded Tests: Descriptions
and Error Codes
When inspecting errors in the system and deciding which ones to address,
always investigate errors in the order they are presented in the table below.
Circuit Pack Restart Test (#252)
This destructive test is used to reset the circuit pack. This test is not part of either
short or long demand test sequence and is executed only on detection of PPCPU
errors. The circuit pack is reset via the SAKI Sanity Test (#53).
Control Channel Loop-Around Test (#52)
This test queries the circuit pack for its circuit pack code and vintage and verifies
its records.
This test is non-destructive.
