8 FAIL Reference B failed or CI card B failed. This condition usually 
indicates a failure of the DS1 reference; however, there may also be 
a failure of the CI card to which the reference is connected. System 
Technician dispatched to investigate this problem should take a 
spare CI card in case the CI card caused the failure.
If you are NOT ON-SITE, use the following procedure:
1. If there are no DS1-BD errors OR after resolving all DS1-BD 
errors, issue the test synchronization r 4 command to 
determine if the alarm is still present. If all repetitions of the tests 
pass, the alarm no longer exists. Otherwise, system technician 
should be dispatched with a spare CI card to use the following 
instructions on-site.
If you are ON-SITE, use the following procedure:
1. Look for a red LED on a CI card B (the right CI card). If there is 
a red LED, replace the CI card, if a spare is available. If no 
spare CI is available on-site, proceed to Step 3. If after 
replacing the CI card, the red LED on the new CI card lights 
also, proceed to Step 3.
2. Otherwise, issue the test synchronization r 4 command to 
clear the alarm. If any test repetitions fail, follow the procedure 
for those failures.

FAIL 3. Look for DS1-BD (DS1 Interface Circuit Pack) errors using the 
display error command. Refer to the DS1-BD Maintenance 
documentation for recommended strategy to resolve any 
DS1-BD errors found. If there are no DS1-BD errors, proceed to 
Step 5.
4. After all DS1-BD errors have been resolved, determine if the 
alarm still exists by issuing the test synchronization r 4 
command to clear the alarm. If any test repetitions fail, follow 
the procedure for those failures.
5. Check the DS1 reference A connections to the Stratum 3 clock.
6. Determine if the alarm still exists by issuing the test 
synchronization r 4 command to clear the alarm. If any test 
repetitions fail, follow the procedure for those failures. If the 
problem persists after you have performed this procedure three 
times, follow normal escalation procedures.
