ATTENDANT SYSTEM ALARM INDICATION
Description
Provides an Alarm on the Attendant Console to alert the attendant to problems detected by
the system software.
The ALARM LED on the Attendant Console will flash whenever a
detected fault persists longer than four minutes, or if more than five transient faults per
hour are detected.
The alarm indication should be reportd immediately to your AT&T
Systems Technician.
The alarm type that causes an alarm indication is referred to as a Permanent System
Alarm. These alarms are faults that can cause degradation of service and require immediate
attention.
If a flashing ALARM button is pressed, the LED will change from flashing to steadily lit. A
new trouble situation will cause a steady ALARM LED to start flashing again. Only when
the trouble has been corrected will the LED turn off.
Considerations
The ALARM LED on the Attendant Console provides a warning as soon as the fault is
detected. This permits a quick response to system detected faults.
In a two-attendant system, both consoles track problems.
