Transponder Cards
D.5.4.5 Current Tab
The Current tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the transponder laser
current levels.
D.5.4.6 Power Tab
The Power tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the transponder Laser 1
power levels.
D.5.4.7 Input Power Tab
TheInput Power tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the power coming into
the transponder.
Background Block Errors Sets the high threshold for the number of B1 background block errors (BBE) and the alarm
severitylevel. An errored block is a block in which one or more bits are in error. A background
block error is an errored block that does not occur as part of a severely errored second.
Unavailable Seconds Sets the highthreshold forthe numberof B1 unavailable seconds (UAS) and the alarm severity
level.The detection of 10 consecutive SES begins a period of UAS. The 10 SES detected are part
ofthe UAS. The ES and SES counters decrement by 10 seconds and the UAS counter increments
by an equivalent number of seconds. A new period of available time begins at the onset of 10
consecutive non-SES events.

Value When the Update button is clicked, displays the current value of the transponder laser current.
Degrade Sets the degrade threshold for the laser current (in mA) and the alarm severity level.
Fail Sets the failure threshold for the laser current (in mA) and the alarm severity level.
TableD-269 Field Descriptions for the Power Tab
Field Description
Value When the Update button is clicked, displays the current power of Laser 1.
Low Sets the low threshold for the laser power (in mW) and the alarm severity level.
High Sets the high threshold for the laser power (in mW) and the alarm severity level.
TableD-270 Field Descriptions for the Input Power Tab
Field Description
Value When the Update button is clicked, displays the current transponder input power.
Fail Sets the fail threshold for the module input power in dBm and the alarm severity level.
Degrade Sets the degrade threshold for the module input power (in dBm) and the alarm severity level.
