(continued)
The error events monitored by the T7230A are as follows:
A receive framer enters an unavailable state condition whenever it has detected ten consecutive seconds each being
severely errored. When in the unavailable state, the receive framer resumes an available state condition whenever
ten consecutive seconds have been detected, none of which were severely errored.
