If an entire T1 is down a better test is "test board <DS1 board>". You are interested in tests 138-146. You can cancel after 146 because the rest of the tests are the individual channels. Those tests are -

138 - loss of signal
139 - blue alarm
140 - red alarm
141 - yellow alarm
142 - excessive bit error
143 - bit errors, but not as much as the previous test
144 - slips
145 - out of frame
146 - translations

If test 144 fails, test again because that is a slip counter that counts slips since the last time you ran this test. This is an historical counter, if it does not pass now then you are slipping right now.
