  6. Enter the following command for the inhibited OAP terminal:
    chg-trm:trm=x:type=none

    where x is the port number.

  7. If the problem is still not corrected, reseat the TDM card.
    If the OAP still does not respond, replace the TDM card. Refer to the Maintenance Manual for card removal/replacement procedures.
  8. Enter the following command for each OAP terminal inhibited:
    chg-trm:trm=x:type=oap

    where x is the port number.

  9. Enter the following command to return the OAP terminals to the in-service state:
    alw-trm:trm=x

    where x is the port number.
