Interface Controller-International Card
Note On the ONS 15454 ANSI shelf, the AIC-I card alarm provides direct alarm contacts (external alarm
inputs and external control outputs) routed through the backplane to wire-wrap pins accessible from the
back of the shelf. If you install an Alarm Expansion Panel (AEP), the AIC-I alarm contacts cannot be
used. Only the AEP alarm contacts can be used. For further information about the AEP, see “NTP-G9
Install the Alarm Expansion Panel (ANSI Only)” procedure on page 1-44 and the “NTP-G11 Install an
External Wire-Wrap Panel on the AEP (ANSI Only)” procedure on page 1-58. The ONS 15454 ETSI
shelf is not compatible with the AEP.
Note For information about the AIC-I alarms, controls, and virtual wire, refer to the “23.7.3 Virtual Wires”
section on page 23-13.
Step 1 If you are using an ONS 15454 ANSI shelf, verify the backplane wiring. If you are using the AEP, see
the “NTP-G9 Install the Alarm Expansion Panel (ANSI Only)” procedure on page 1-44. Otherwise, see
the “NTP-G10 Attach Wires to Alarm, Timing, LAN, and Craft Pin Connections” procedure on
page 1-47 for information about the ONS 15454 backplane pins.
a. For external alarms, verify that the external device relays are wired to the ENVIR ALARMS IN
backplane pins.
b. For external controls, verify that the external device relays are wired to the ENVIR ALARMS OUT
backplane pins.
Step 2 If you are using an ONS 15454 ETSI shelf, verify the alarm contact wiring. See the “NTP-G10 Attach
Wires to Alarm, Timing, LAN, and Craft Pin Connections” procedure on page 1-47 for information
about the ONS 15454 SDH contacts.
a. For external alarms, verify that the external device relays are wired to the ENVIR ALARMS IN
connector pins.
b. For external controls, verify the external device relays are wired to the ENVIR ALARMS OUT
connector pins.
Step 3 Complete the “DLP-G46 Log into CTC” task on page 2-25. If you are already logged in, continue with
Step 4.
Step 4 In node view, double-click the AIC-I card on the shelf graphic. The card view appears.
Step 5 Click the Provisioning > Card tabs.
Purpose Use this procedure to create external (environmental) alarms and external
controls for the AIC-I card.
Tools/Equipment An AIC-I card must be installed in Slot 9.
