Help Messages
If the technician presses HELP after entering “test alarms” the following message
will be displayed:
Enter [’auto-page’], [’failures’], [’step’],
[’short’ or ’long’], [’repeat’ (1-100) or ’clear’]
repeat number
The "number" specifies how many times each test in the sequence is to
be repeated. "Number" may be any integer between 1 and 100.
clear
This option causes the test sequence (short or long) to repeat until the
alarm is cleared or a single test in the sequence fails. The long clear
option forces a clear of all alarms if no errors are encountered during
testing. The short clear option only clears alarms pertinent to tests in
the short sequence.
!
WARNING:
Executing a clear with short option, may not clear all alarms even
if all tests pass.
!
WARNING:
Since the "clear long" options clear all counters if tests pass, it is
possible for firmware counters to be cleared even when a
problem exists. In some cases customer service might degrade
since calls may be routed over defective equipment.
