short in the loop or a defective voice terminal. 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
test is repeated once more five seconds later. If either test is not successful, the
test aborts.
Although this test will never actually return a fail result (except for the internal
system error), an error type 257 entry will be made in the error log when the test
has completed if the overcurrent case is detected by the hardware.

Result Description/ Recommendation
ABORT The test was aborted due to an internal system error on a software
request to the board.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
1000 ABORT System resources required to run this test are not available. The port
may be busy with a valid call. Use the display port PCSSpp command
to determine the station extension, attendant number, or trunk
group/member number of the port. Use the status station, status
attendant, or status trunk command to determine the service state of
the port. If the service state indicates that the port is in use, then the
port is unavailable for certain tests. You must wait until the port is idle
before retesting. Attendants are always in use (off-hook) if the handset
is plugged in and the port is not busied out.
1. If the port status is idle, then retry the command at 1-minute
intervals a maximum of 5 times.
FAIL The test failed with an internal error while it was attempting to turn on
the EPF.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
PASS EAF Test passed. The message to turn on the power to the station was
successfully sent to the port.
1. Although this test never returns 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. If Error Type 257 does not appear in the Error Log within 10
seconds after completion of this test, it is safe to assume that the
test sensed no problems with the power to the station. To verify that
the station is powered up correctly, run a self-test on the station, if
available, and check that all the feature buttons are operating.
3. If Error Type 257 appears in the Error Log, this indicates some
problem with the power to the station. The system technician
should check for a short in the wiring, a damaged jack, a defective
voice terminal, or an incorrect type of terminal.
