EXP-INTF (Expansion Interface Circuit Pack)
2. Use change circuit-pack to reassign the slot to match the existing circuit pack. If a
fiber is assigned for the existing circuit pack, remove the fiber from translations before
changing the circuit pack’s translations.
d. Error Type 131: an EI circuit pack has been removed from a slot for 5 minutes. The alarm
will be resolved when the EI circuit pack is physically inserted into this slot and becomes
recognized by software.
Another way to resolve this alarm is to use change circuit pack to remove the EI
circuit pack administrative entry for this slot after the EI circuit pack has been removed from
the slot.
It is also possible that the EI could be held in reset by the PN’s Maintenance board (MAINT)
and is not inserted in the system. Enter test maint P long on the Maintenance board in
the same PN.
e. Error Type 257: this EI circuit pack is detecting incorrect data on the incoming fiber bit
stream. The data is originating at the connected circuit pack (DS1 converter circuit pack, EI
circuit pack, or SNI circuit pack).
1. Enter display errors and save a copy of the error log for use in later steps.
Intervening repair procedures are likely to alter the contents of the error log and this
information may be needed in later steps.
2. Perform the Fiber link fault isolation procedures described in Maintenance Procedures
(03-300432).
3. If errors are still present or if this error occurs intermittently, replace the EI circuit packs,
SNI circuit packs, DS1 converter circuit packs, or the transceivers on this link.
4. These errors could result from a bad timing reference on the network or switch node that
contains the DS1 converter, EI, or SNI circuit pack on the opposite end of the fiber. Refer
to the error log that was saved in step 1 and follow the associated repair procedure for
EXP-INTF (Expansion Interface Circuit Pack) error 2305 to resolve this error. If there are
any TONE-BD (Tone-Clock Circuit Pack), TDM-CLK (TDM Bus Clock), or SYNC (Port
Network Synchronization) errors, resolve these errors as well.
f. Error Type 513 with Aux Data 5–7: an ON BOARD hardware failure of the circuit pack’s
RAM or ROM. Replace the EI circuit pack.
g. Error Type 769: Besides running the test sequence and following procedures outlined for
Expansion Interface Fiber Out-of-Frame Query Test (#238), perform the Fiber link fault
isolation procedures described in Maintenance Procedures (03-300432).
h. Error type 1281: The link to the neighbor circuit pack is broken or the fibers have been
connected incorrectly. Enter test board location and follow repair procedures for the
tests.
i. Error Type 1538: a hyperactive EI circuit pack is generating an abnormal amount of control
messages to the Processor. When this error was generated, the EI was automatically reset
by the system. If this system does not have duplicated Port Network Connectivity, service to
the PN will have been disrupted. If this system does have duplicated Port Network
Connectivity, the system should have switched to the standby Port Network Connectivity.
