Depending on what condition is sensed, a message is returned stating that either
the EPF was turned on successfully with no problems or that an overcurrent
condition is sensed. This response is reported by the Electronic Power Feed
Inquiry (#622), which follows in the testing sequence. EPF Restoral is attempted
again by this test five seconds later. This test always passes for the TN2198
because it has no EPF. This test will always abort when run on the TN2208.
Level 1 Status Inquiry Test (#621)
This test determines the state of the transmission facility of a BRI port at the
physical layer (that is, Level 1). Level 1 can be in one of three possible states:
Activated, Pending Activation, or Deactivated.
The Activated state is the correct state for an ISDN-BRI port. In this state the
Level 1 interface can communicate with the BRI endpoint or ASAI or Lucent
adjunct administered on this port. This test passes if the state of Level 1 (L1) is
Activated. This test also passes if software has taken this port out of service. See
the description of the Level 1 ‘‘Deactivated State’’ below for more details.
The Pending Activation state indicates a problem with the endpoints or adjunct,
the wiring to the sets or adjunct, or the BRI-LINE circuit pack. When in this state,
the Level 1 interface is either not receiving any L1 framing from the endpoint or
adjunct (Endpoint Idle), or it is communicating with the endpoint or adjunct but
cannot transition to the Activated state (Endpoint Active).

Result Description/ Recommendation
1005 ABORT This test is not valid for this port type. The TN2208 does not have an
electronic power feed, and the test will abort.
2012 ABORT Internal System Error.
1. Retry the command at one-minute intervals a maximum of five times.
2. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
PASS The EPF Test passed. The message to turn on the power feed to the station
or the adjunct was successfully sent to the port.
1. Although this test should not return a fail result, after running this test,
the Error Log should be checked for any entries with error type 257 to
examine the real results of this test.
2. An error type of 257 in the Error Log indicates some problem with the
power to the station or the adjunct. Check for a short in the wiring, a
damaged jack, a defective voice terminal or adjunct, or an incorrect
type of terminal.
