Conference Circuit Test (#7)
One or more Network Processing Elements (NPEs) reside on each circuit pack 
with a TDM Bus interface. The NPE controls port connectivity and gain, and 
provides conferencing functions on a per-port basis. The Conference Circuit Test 
verifies that the NPE channel for the port being tested can correctly perform the 
conferencing function. The NPE is instructed to listen to several different tones 
and conference the tones together. The resulting signal is then measured by a 
tone detector port. If the level of the tone is within a certain range, the test 
passes.
0NO 
BOARD
The test could not relate the internal ID to the port (no board). This could be 
due to incorrect translations, no board is inserted, an incorrect board is 
inserted, an insane board is inserted, or the board is hyperactive (see note 
below).
1. Check to ensure that the board translations are correct. Use the list 
config command, and resolve any problems that are found.
2. If the board was found to be correctly inserted in step 1, issue the 
busyout board command.
3. Issue the reset board command.
4. Issue the release busy board command.
5. Issue the test board long command. This should re-establish the 
linkage between the internal ID and the port. If this is not the case, 
dispatch to check to ensure that there is a valid board inserted.
NOTE:
Hyperactivity causes some special problems with the sequence 
suggested above. If the ports are translated after issuing the list 
config command but the Vintage field reports that there is no 
board (when there really is a board), then the busyout board and 
the release busy board commands will not work (even though the 
reset board command will work). The software puts the hyperactive 
board back in service after the hyperactivityclears.
