Term
What are alarm cutoff switches used for?
Definition
The restore the failed alarm system to normal after an alarm condition occurs.
Term
What are station alarms used for?
Definition

To monitor power and building conditions in the sytems control element; they also provide both visual and audible alarms and can be paralleled with remote alarm panels installed in locations within the building complex.

Term
What type of radio alarms are low-transmitter power output, low-receiver input, and low-fuel supply for generators?
Definition
Typical.
Term
What type of radio alarm is the failure to transfer between operational and standby equipment due to lockout or equipment malfunction?
Definition
Multiplex terminal equipment.
Term
What is the main purpose of the fault alarm and status reporting system?
Definition

To assist (you) the system controller in isolating a failure or degradation to a location and item of equipment.

Term
What design feature within the FASR system makes replacement of equipment as rapid and effective as patching?
Definition

Equipment design, modular construction, and built-in test equipment. (The equipment was designed for modular replacement.)

Term
Why is the TRAMCON subsystem important to the major SCF?
Definition

Because it provides the major systems control facilities with the capability to supervise subordinate digital terrestrial transmission media and facilities.

Term
In a system configuration employing two or more TRAMCOM terminals, what would be the mode of operation of these terminals?
Definition

One terminal would operate in the master mode and the other in the slave mode.

Term
When a TRAMCON system does not have 100 percent backup, what is the status of the system?
Definition
A HAZCON exists.
Term

Term

Fault Isolation Description:

 

Fault isolation procedures based on the particular type of equipment installed in your station.

Definition

Written procedures.

Term
When you discover that a circuit, T-1, or link is not operating in the prescribed manner, what do you do?
Definition

Perform channel fault isolation by doing the appropriate in-service monitoring tests and checks to find the size and general location of the fault.

Term
Where does the in-station user's signal first appear in the SCF?
Definition
At the line module.
Term
Where does the out-of-station user's signal first appear in the SCF?
Definition
On the audio patch bay receive line jack.
