D.5.14.5 Current Tab
The Current tab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the transponder laser current
levels.
D.5.14.6 Power Tab
The Power tab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the transponder laser power
levels.
D.5.14.7 Input Power Tab
The Input Powertab allows you to assign thresholds and alarm severities for the power coming into the
transponder lasers.
Background Block Errors Setsthe highthreshold for thenumber ofB1 background block errors (BBE) and thealarm
severity level. An errored block is a block in which one or more bits are in error. A
backgroundblock 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 non-SES events.
