Abstract
Contemporary communication systems must have extremely high availability and malfunctioning equipment must be repaired and replaced as quickly as possible. To this end, optical displays are provided for all equipment. An optical display is driven in case of malfunction as a function of the results provided by a fault procedure, whereby the drive of the optical display displays current information indicating the permissibility and necessity of equipment replacement. The advantages of this procedure are fast repair of the fault and enhanced availability of the communication system.
