Check your data:

SELECT [Status]

FROM CustomPollerStatus

WHERE [Status] LIKE '%T%'

Your @flaglist variable is varchar but you compare it (or rather, a substring of it) to a numeric:
WHEN SUBSTRING(@flaglist,@flagpos,1)=1 and @counter = 31 THEN 'Graceful Shutdown Issued by Upstream Device, '

You could change that to a varchar too:
WHEN SUBSTRING(@flaglist,@flagpos,1) = '1' and @counter = 31 THEN 'Graceful Shutdown Issued by Upstream Device, '
