3. Move the cursor by pressing TAB to move down the screen from field to 
field and enter y in the Packet Bus Activated? field to indicate you 
have a TN778 circuit pack.
This is the only field needing change on this screen to turn the red lights

4. Press 
ENTE R when the information is correct.
5. Verify the screen displays:
command successfully completed
command:
Save Translations
The save translation command copies the current system translations onto the 
translation card. For standard-reliability systems, one translation card plus one 
backup are required. For high or critical-reliability systems, two translation cards 
plus two backups are required.
!CAUTION:
Do not attemp t to save translations on the orange-labeled, 10 MB memory 
card. Use the white translation card!
The following procedure can be used to save system translations on the original 
card(s) and can also can be used to make a backup card or card s:
1. Verify the screen displays:
command:
2. Type save translation and press 
ENT ER. 
3. After several minutes, the screen displays something like this:

4. Verify a 0 is displayed in the Error Code column for each switch 
processing element in the system. A 0 indicates the save translation was 
successfully completed for the translation card. If a 0 did not a p pear, the 
save translation did not comp lete. Record the ‘‘error code number’’ and 
the ‘‘error message’’ and notify your AT&T representative.
5. Remove the original translation card (s) from the TN777B(s) and replace it 
or them with backup card(s).
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for the backup card(s).
7. Remove the backup translation card(s) from the TN777B and replace it or 
them with the original translation card(s).
8. Label the bac kup card(s) with the date and time of the b a ckup. A special 
notation should be put on the card s to clearly distinguish them from other 
such devices.
9. Store the b ackup in a secure place.

Test the System
The following tests provide verification of the Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) 
cables and terminators, and fi bre-optic inter-cabinet c a bles (ICC).  If a FAIL 
Result c o de is seen or other problems are indicated,  check these cables.  If 
problems persist, refer to the U.S. English book,
 DE FI NITY  Co mmunications 
System Generic 1 and Generic 3i Maintenance
, 555-104-205.
The status of the system should be reviewed first, followed by testing the 
tone-clock, Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) b us, and duplication link in the 
Processor Port Network (PPN). Then test exp ansion interfaces, tone-clock(s), 
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) buses, and duplication in the Expansion Port 
Networks (EPNs).
NOTE:
Circuit pack positions are usually given by cabinet, carrier (within cabinet), 
and slot (within carrier). They may also b e given by port (within slot).  The 
term “cabinet” refers to a stack of single carrier cabinets  making up one 
port network.  A port network is d efined as a group of c a binets connected 
together with one Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) bus. 
Check the System Status for Each 
Cabinet
The system status may suggest p roblem areas.  Specific tests later provide more 
specific diagnostic information.
1. Verify the terminal sc reen displays:
command:
2. Type status system all-cabinets and press 
ENT ER.

3. Verify the screen displays system status screens similar to the example 
shown below:
Screen 8-1. Example System Status Screen for Cabinet 1
NOTE:
In the first section of the report, all Tone-Clocks should report a SERVICE 
STATE of in.
NOTE:
In the second section of the report, all Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) 
buses should report a SERVICE STATE of in.
NOTE:
In the third section of the report, all expansion links should report a 
SERVICE STATE of in, and, under EXP-LINK, the c a binet/carrier/slot 
numbers for the fi ber optic  cables are listed.  For example, 01A01 in 
Screen 8-1 refers to cabinet 01, carrier A, and slot 01.
