This test is a series of audits. This test is run on PDMODULE, TDMODULE, digital stations, softphone applications, and IP phones. This test is run on a station only if the station is in-service. The following audits are performed:
Switch hook Inquiry: This is an update of the server’s software records based on the on-hook/off-hook status of the data module or voice terminal.
Station ID Request: A request is made to the data module or station for its status. The data module or station returns its configuration and health information. This information is checked and a pass/fail result is provided.
EPF inquiry: The test requests the status of the Electronic Power Feed. EPF is not used for data modules.
Bad Scan Inquiry: An uplink message is sent containing a count generated by certain events relating to the link conditions. This can be an indication of communication problems between the server and the digital port board or media module.
Ringer Update: This updates the ringer state according to the server’s records.
DTMP Administration Update: This sends a message to the digital station to refresh the default value that causes the station to send touch-tones only in the primary information channel. This value is initially set when the station is put in-service and each time the station’s state changes from another state to in-service. This test is not used with data modules.
This test runs on the following maintenance objects:
