Default Severity: Minor(MN), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)
SONET Logical Objects: EQPT, OCN
DWDM Logical Object: PPM
The Equipment High Transmit Power alarm is an indicator on the OC-N port transmitted optical signal
power. HI-TXPOWER occurs when the measured optical power of the transmitted signal exceeds the
threshold.
Note For information about this alarm that applies to DWDM objects, refer to the “Alarm Troubleshooting”
chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Troubleshooting Guide.

Clear the HI-TXPOWER Alarm

Step1 In node view, display the card view for the controller card (15310-CL-CTX or CTX2500 card).
Step2 Click the Provisioning > Optical > Optics Thresholds tabs.
Step3 Decrease (change toward the negative direction) the OPT-HIGH column value by 1%.
Step4 If the card transmit power setting cannot be lowered without disrupting the signal, complete the
“Physically Replace a Card” procedure on page2-154.
Caution Removing a card that currently carries traffic on one or more ports can cause a traffic hit. To avoid this,
perform an external switch if a switch has not already occurred. See the “2.10.1 Protection Switching,
Lock Initiation, and Clearing” section on page2-147 for commonly used traffic-switching procedures.
Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS15310-CL
or ONS 15310-MA.
Note When you replace a card with the identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes
to the database.
Step5 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport
for more information or call CiscoTAC (1-800-553-2447).
