ALARM BUFFER
OVERFLOW
ALM BUFFER OVF
04 More than 100 alarms entries have
been written in the alarm buffer since
the last clear command
Read the messages, and then send the CLR ALM /A
(CA) command from the supervision terminal
MINOR ON
BPV ERROR BPV ERROR: X
30 Bipolar violations in the main or
sublink receive signal. Updated once
per second
Have the corresponding link checked. Perform the
power-up self-test and replace the FCD-E1 if a failure is
detected
MINOR ON
BRG FAILURE B.R.G FAIL: X
33 FCD-E1 technical failure (baud rate
generator of the specified user channel
failed)

CLOCK WAS
CHANGED TO
FALLBACK
FALLBACK CLK USE
07 FCD-E1 switched to the fallback clock
source, because the master clock
source failed
Check the master clock source. A clock source is
replaced as a result of failure under the following
conditions:
1. ML - fails during local loss of frame
synchronization on the main link
2. CH1 or CH2 - fails when the data channel
equipment is disconnected or inoperative (DTR
line not asserted)
3. SL - fails when the local sub loses frame
synchronization
MINOR ON
CLOCK WAS
CHANGED TO
INTERNAL
INTERNAL CLK USE
08 FCD-E1 switched to the internal clock
source, because both the master and
the fallback clock sources failed
1. Check the two clock sources.
2. Perform the power-up self-test and replace the
FCD-E1 if a failure is detected
