NPE Crosstalk Test (#6)
This test verifies that the port’s NPE channel talks on the selected time slot and 
never crosses over to time slots reserved for other connections. If the NPE is not 
working correctly, one-way and noisy connections may be observed. This test is 
usually part of the long test sequence and takes about 20 to 30 seconds to 
complete.

Result Description/Recommendation
ABORT Necessary system resources could not be allocated to run this test. 
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals no more than 5 times.
2. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
1000 ABORT System resources are unavailable. The port may be busy with a valid call. 
This result is also reported for the system’s Music-On-Hold port when it is 
off-hook, which it usually is.
1. Enter display port UUCSSpp to determine the station’s extension. 
2. Enter status station
 extension
 to determine the service state of the 
port. 
3. If the port is in use, wait until the port is idle. Retry the command at 
1-minute intervals no more than 5 times. 
4. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
1001 ABORT System resources required to run test are not available. This could be due 
to a failure to seize the port.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals no more than 5 times.
2. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
1002 ABORT The system could not allocate time slots for the test. The system may be 
under heavy traffic conditions or have time slots out-of-service due to 
TDM-BUS errors. 
1. Refer to “TDM-BUS” to diagnose any active TDM-BUS errors.
2. If the system has no TDM-BUS errors and is not handling heavy traffic, 
retry the command at 1-minute intervals no more than 5 times. 
3. If the test continues to abort, escalate the problem.
