10.4 Argent Error Codes
Argent Basics
The seven segment display on the Argent Terminal Adaptor will light up and will move
through a sequence of numbers on start-up. The numbers displayed will be steady when
the call is progressing and the configuration downloading normally on the D-channel during
start-up. The display will flash continuously if call progress encounters an error condition
during start-up.
The table below provides a list of “start-up status codes” that the ATA will display in order of
sequence when the power is being applied, the call is being set up and the configuration is being
downloaded by the Argent Network Management System (NMS).
