DLP-G314 Verify OSCM Transmit Power
Note Throughout this task, west refers to Slots 1 through 8, and east refers to Slots 10 through 17.
Step 1 Display the OSCM card in card view.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Optical Line > Parameters tabs.
Step 3 Record the Port 3 Power value: _____. If an OPT-PRE card is installed in the same side of the shelf as
the OSCM, continue with Step 4. If not, verify that the value is equal to –5 dBm +/– 0.5 dBm. If so,
continue with Step 7. If not, continue with Step 6, Substep a.
Step 4 Change to node view, then click the Provisioning > WDM-ANS tabs.
Step 5 Record the amplifier working mode value from one of the following:
For OSCM cards installed on the east side:
a. In the Selector window on the left, expand the East Side parameters tree view.
b. Expand the RX category.
c. Expand the Amplifier category, then highlight Working Mode.
d. Record the EastSide.Rx.Amplifier.Working Mode parameter displayed in the right pane.
For OCSM cards installed on the west side:
a. In the Selector window on the left, expand the West Side parameters tree view.
b. Expand the RX category.
c. Expand the Amplifier category, then highlight Working Mode.
d. Record the WestSide.Rx.Amplifier.Working Mode parameter displayed in the right pane.
Step 6 If the working mode recorded in Step 5 is Control Gain, verify that the value recorded in Step 3 is equal
to –5 dBm +/– 0.5 dBm. If the value recorded in Step 5 is Control Power, verify that the value recorded
in Step 3 is equal to 0.5 dBm, +/– 0.5 dBm. If the power level is not within this range, complete the
following steps. Otherwise, continue with Step 7.
a. Click the Maintenance > ALS tabs. Verify that the ALS Command is set to OSRI Off. If not, click
the cell and choose Off from the drop-down list. Click Apply, then click Yes .
b. Clean the optical connections. See the “NTP-G115 Clean Fiber Connectors” procedure on
page 13-25.

page 10-41.
–
Complete the “NTP-G37 Run Automatic Node Setup” procedure on page 3-83.
