Error message

2239775 The SPI received an MDS broke error packet from the PACTL Error: 2239775 Host: oc001 Process: NSP File: HPC PORT ID:spi ctlx Line: 400 SPI MDS link failure. The SPI received an MDS broke error packet from the PACTL. The link appears to be broken between the GPS and the PACTL. Check GPS power, SCA(SCIF) board, & connections & signal level of fiber optic link between the GPS & CTLX.

2239774 SPI MDS link failure. The SPI received an MDS broke error packet from the GPS Sat Jan 29 08:33:06 2005 Error: 2239774 Host: oc001 Process: NSP File: HPC_PORT_ID:spi_scif Line: 300 SPI MDS link failure The SPI received an MDS broke error packet from the GPS. The link appears to be broken between the SPI and the GPS. Check the connections and signal level of the MDS fiber optic link between the TYME card and the GPS.
