software. For example, there is a separate Sequencer PC for keeping track of the health of each port.

The port status indicates that code 1111 is being sent. This code occurs because the card is down and the
DTIC is not ready to receive a call from the PBX. The SEQUENCER PC status 0f indicates that the port
is waiting to be told to operate. Generally, 0f means down. The following gives basic information about
the fields for the status of a port (channel).
