Announcement Checksum Test (#209)
Associated with every recorded announcement is a checksum. In this test, the 
SP checks a stored global checksum covering all recorded announcements 
against a calculated one and returns the results to the maintenance system. If the 
global checksum failed, maintenance requests the SP to check each individual 
announcement’s checksum.
If the test fails, then it returns the total number of defective announcements 
found. In addition, associated with each failure is an error in the Error Log (Error 
Type 14). The Aux Data indicates the number of the first defective announcement

Result Description/ Recommendation
2000 ABORT Response to the test request was not received within the allowable time 
period. If Error Type 1538 is present in the Error Log, follow the 
maintenance strategy recommended for this Error Type.
2100 ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
ABORT Internal system error.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
FAIL Test failed. Circuit pack cannot be used. Announcement speech 
memory is cleared when this test fails. Therefore, when the problem 
has been resolved, announcements must be rerecorded or 
downloaded to the circuit pack. 
1. Reset the circuit pack via the reset board PCSS command and then 
run this test again. If the test continues to fail, replace the circuit pack 
and then run this test again.
2. If there are recurring alarms on this circuit pack caused by this test 
failing, replace the circuit pack even if Step 1 works.
!
WARNING:
Replacing the circuit pack results in loss of integrated 
announcements. See ‘‘General Notes’’
 near the beginning of this 
Maintenance documentation.
PASS The communications link between the two processors on the 
Announcement circuit pack is functioning properly. User-reported troubles 
on this circuit pack should be investigated using other circuit pack and 
port tests. Refer to "ANN-PT (Announcement Port)" Maintenance 
documentation for a description of the port tests.
