Chapter 4 Perform Node Acceptance Tests
NTP-G42 Perform the Terminal Node with 32WSS and 32DMX Cards Acceptance Test
Note If OSC terminations are created, an OSC channel alarm will appear.
Step 4 In node view, click the Provisioning > WDM-ANS > Port Status tabs. Verify that all statuses under
Link Status are listed as Success - Changed, Success - Unchanged, or Not Applicable. If any are not, or
if errors (indicated in red) appear, delete the OSC channels and complete the “NTP-G37 Run Automatic
Node Setup” procedure on page 3-83. Provision the OSC channels when complete.
Step 5 Create a physical loopback on the OPT-BST, OCSM, or OSC-CSM by using a patchcord with 10-dB
bulk attenuators to connect the LINE TX port to the LINE RX port.
Note An SDCC Termination Failure alarm will appear due to the OSC signal loopback. This is
observed as an alarm on Port 1 of the OSCM or OSC-CSM card.
Step 6 Wait 90 seconds, then verify that the OSC link is active on the west OSCM or OSC-CSM card by
observing whether or not the loss of signal (LOS) alarm on the OSCM or OSC-CSM (and the OPT-BST
card, if present) clears. (The OSC termination must already be provisioned. If not, complete the
“NTP-G38 Provision OSC Terminations” procedure on page 3-84.)
Step 7 If you are using a tunable laser, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to complete the following steps.
If you are using a TXP_MR_2.5G card, continue with Step 8.
a. Set the output power to a nominal value, such as –3 dBm.
b. Set the tuner to the wavelength you will test, then continue with Step 9.
Step 8 If you are using a TXP_MR_2.5G card, complete the “DLP-G268 Provision TXP_MR_2.5G Cards for
Acceptance Testing” task on page 4-4 for the TXP containing the wavelength you will test. Refer to
Table 4-1, if needed.
Step 9 Connect the tunable laser transmitter or the TXP_MR_2.5G card DWDM TX port to the CHAN RX 01
port on the 32WSS card using the available patch panel.
Note The tunable laser minimum output optical power (Pout) must be –6 dBm. If the output power is
lower than –6 dBm, the 32WSS card might not reach the provisioned setpoint.
Step 10 Display the 32WSS card in card view.
Step 11 Click the Provisioning > Optical Chn Optical Connector [n] > Parameters tabs, where n = the optical
connector number that carries the wavelengths you will test. Refer to Table 4-2 on page 4-9, if needed.
Step 12 Click the Admin State table cell for the Add port carrying the tested wavelength, then choose OOS,MT
(for ANSI) or Locked,maintenance (ETSI) from the drop-down list. For example, if the tested
wavelength is 1530.33 (shown as 1530.3), you would click the Port 1 Admin State field and choose
OOS,MT or Locked,maintenance from the drop-down list.
Step 13 Change the Admin State of the pass-through (PT) port corresponding to the port in Step 8 to OOS,MT
(ANSI) or Locked,maintenance (ETSI). For example, if the tested wavelength is 1530.33 (shown as
1530.3), you would click the Port 33 Admin State field and choose OOS,MT or Locked,maintenance
from the drop-down list. Refer to Table 4-2 on page 4-9, if needed. Click the Provisioning >
Optical Chn Optical Connector [n] > Parameters tabs, where n = the optical connector number that
carries the wavelength under test.
Step 14 Click Apply, then click Ye s .
Step 15 Click the Maintenance tab.
