Field |
| Description |
|
| |
Background Block Errors | Sets the high threshold for the number of B1 background block errors (BBE) and the alarm | |
|
| severity level. 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. |
|
|
|
Bit Error Rate |
| Sets the high threshold for the B1 bit error rate and the alarm severity level. The BER is |
|
| the ratio of received bits that contain errors. |
|
| |
Unavailable Seconds | Sets the high threshold for the number of 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 of the 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 |

D.5.14.5 Current Tab
The Current tab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the transponder laser current levels.
Table
Field
Description
Laser 1
Value | When the Update button is clicked, displays the current value of the Laser 1 current (in mA). |
|
|
Degrade | Sets the degrade threshold for the Laser 1 current, in mA, and the alarm severity level. |
|
|
Fail | Sets the failure threshold for the Laser 1 current, in mA, and the alarm severity level. |
|
|
D.5.14.6 Power Tab
The Power tab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the transponder laser power levels.
Table
Field
Description
Laser 1
Value | When the Update button is clicked, displays the current power of Laser 1 (in mW). |
|
|
Low | Sets the low threshold for the Laser 1 power, in mW, and the alarm severity level. |
|
|
High | Sets the high threshold for the Laser 1 power, in mW, and the alarm severity level. |
|
|
D.5.14.7 Input Power Tab
The Input Power tab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the power coming into the transponder lasers.
