LOS
Indicates whether a Loss Of Signal
condition currently exists.
Major alarm that occurs when no pulses
(ones) are detected in over one hundred bit
times.
LOF
Indicates whether a Loss Of Frame
condition currently exists.
Major alarm that occurs when the receiver
circuitry is unable to locate the framing bit in
the received T1 signal.
AIS Rx/Tx
Indicates whether Alarm Indication
Signal is currently being received or
transmitted.
AIS is declared when the port receives a
pattern of unframed all-ones. A QUAD T1 port
transmits all-ones when it is in a local loop.
RAI Rx/Tx
Indicates whether Remote Alarm
Indication is currently being received
or transmitted. RAI is also called
Yellow Alarm.
When received, it indicates the remote device

The port will transmit RAI when it is in a state
of LOF, LOS or is receiving unframed all-ones.
Slip
Timing slip indicator.
Indicates whether timing slips have occurred
during the current fifteen-minute interval.
CRC6
Indicates whether the configured
threshold for ESF errors has been
exceeded during the current 15-
minute interval.
Cyclic Redundancy Check is an error checking
method used on ESF T1s only. This status
information is not applicable to SF T1 circuits.
CGA
Indicates status of Carrier Group
Alarm.
CGA is true if an LOS, LOF or AIS condition
exists.

status of each T1 port.
IMUX modules will remove a T1 from service if
configurable alarm conditions occur.
