Each input within the housekeeping rack is reported as an integer. In general, the application
engineer will not normally require these inputs. They are provided to aid fault finding and diagnosis
and are often used for reporting and display purposes. If a slice is off-line, then all reported
housekeeping inputs are set to zero.

Table 11 Rack 8: INFO descriptions

The active module chassis and slot numbers indicate the position of the currently active module.
These values will change to match the primary or secondary module position, depending on their
active status, i.e. active/standby changeover will “swap” the values for the active module chassis and
slot number channels with those in the standby module chassis and slot number channels.

The active and standby module healthy channel is returned as an integer. A value of 0 indicates that
a fault has been detected, a value of ‘1’ indicates that the module is healthy.

The active and standby module state is an integer indicating the current operating mode of the
associated module. The value indicates the current internal operating mode of the module.

value is bit-packed as shown below, the least significant byte is used with the most significant 8-bits
set to zero:
