The External Device Alarm Test requests the state of the External Device Alarm
from a Maintenance circuit pack and reports the results. The test has no effect on
the external device itself.

ABORT
System resources required to run this test are not available.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.

ABORT
The PN containing this equipment is not available.
Resolve every PN problem with this cabinet.
2000
ABORT
Response to the test request was not received within the allowable time period.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.
2. (Maintenance Board) If the test continues to ABORT with Error Code 2000,
check for system powering problems with the A carrier. Resolve every
AC-POWER and CARR-POW alarm in a multicarrier cabinet or
DC-POWER alarms in a single-carrier cabinet. Then, repeat the test.
3. (Maintenance Board) If the test continues to ABORT with a 2000 Error
Code, resolve every maintenance circuit pack error. Then, repeat the test.

ANY
FAIL
The External Device Alarm has been activated by the external device.
1. Clear the major alarm on the external device, and rerun the test.
2. If the test still fails, then disconnect the External Device Alarm Leads from
the Maintenance circuit pack and rerun the test.
3. If the test still fails, then there is a problem with the analog external device
alarm port or the Maintenance circuit pack that is reporting the alarm. This
circuit pack should be replaced. There are failures that can occur on the
Maintenance circuit pack that will not be detected by their respective
maintenance, but that will cause many environment tests to fail. If many
environment tests are failing, the suspect circuit pack should be replaced
and the test rerun.
PASS
If there is a problem with the external device, but the administered analog line
external device alarm, or the administered Maintenance circuit pack connected
to the device reports no alarm, then the External Device may not be properly
reporting the problems or the External Device may not be properly connected
to the External Device Alarm Leads.
