DLP-G82 Verify the OSC-CSM Power
DLP-G82 Verify the OSC-CSM Power 
Step 1 Display the OSC-CSM card in card view.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Optical Line > Parameters tabs.
Step 3 If an OPT-PRE is not installed on the same side of the shelf as the OSC-CSM, verify that the Port 3 
Power value is higher than the default no-power value of –30 dBm. If the power is not higher than 
–30 dBm, contact your next level of support.
Step 4 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
DLP-G83 Verify the OSC-CSM Power on OADM Nodes
Step 1 Display the OSC-CSM card in card view.
Step 2 Click the Provisioning > Optical Line > Parameters tabs.
Step 3 Verify that the Power value for Port 3 is higher than the default no-power value of –30 dBm. The 
calculated expected power value for Port 3 is:
Pout COM TX of last AD-xy-xx.x – IL02 OSC-CSM (COM RX > LINE TX) – 10 dB (bulk attenuator)
Step 4 Double-check the value.
Note Actual output power is affected by many factors. Always consider the calculated expected power 
to be a general guideline and not a precise value.
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
