D.5.6.5 Current Tab
The Current tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the transponder laser
current levels.
D.5.6.6 Power Tab
The Power tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the transponder Laser 1
power levels.
D.5.6.7 Input Power Tab
TheInput Power tab allows you to assign performance monitoring thresholds for the power coming into
the transponder.
TableD-280 Field Descriptions for the Quality of Service Tab
Field Description
Errored Seconds Setsthe highthresholdfor thenumber ofB1 errored seconds(ES) and the alarmseverity level.
Anerrored second is a one-second period with one or more error blocks or at least one defect.
Severely Errored Seconds Sets the high threshold for the number of B1 severely errored seconds (SES) and the alarm
severity level. A severely errored second is a one-second period that contains at least 30
percent of errored blocks or at least one defect.
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 Setsthe high thresholdfor the numberof B1 unavailableseconds (UAS) andthe alarm severity
level.The detection of 10 consecutive SES begins a period of UAS. The 10 SES detected are
part of the UAS. The ES and SES counters decrement by 10 seconds and the UAS counter
increments by an equivalentnumber of seconds. A new period of available time begins at the
onset of 10 consecutive non-SES events.
TableD-281 Field Descriptions for the Current Tab
Field Description
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-282 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.
