Device Tests
The T1 access unit supports a Lamp test at the device level. Use this test to
determine whether all LEDs are lighting and functioning properly. All LEDs light at
the same time every 1/2 seconds during execution of the Lamp test. When you
stop the Lamp test, the LEDs are restored to their normal condition. If the Test
Timeout configuration option is enabled and a Test Duration is set, the Lamp test
stops when the test duration expires. The Lamp test is not disruptive to data.
Test Timeout
A Test Timeout feature is available to automatically terminate a test (as opposed
to manually terminating a test) after it has been running a specified period of
time.
To use this feature, enable the Test Timeout configuration option under the
System Options branch of the menu tree, and set a duration for the test to run in
the Test Duration (min) configuration option (see
Table 4-8
in Chapter 4).
