NTP-A70 View Alarm Counts on the LCD for a Node, Slot, or Port
Step 1 If you want to view the entire alarm summary for the node, press either the Slot button or Port button
on the LCD panel until “Node” appears on the LCD. You will also see the direction, “Status=Alm Ct.”
This means that if you press the Status button at this time, as directed in Step 2, you will see an alarm
count for the node.
Step 2 Press the Status button to see a summary of alarms and severities for the node. You will see a message
similar to “Alm CT: 2: MJ:2 MN:2,” meaning that there are two Critical alarms, two Major alarms, and
two Minor alarms.
Step 3 If you want to see alarm counts for a particular slot, such as the alarms for an OC-3 card in Slot 2, press
the Slot button until you see “Slot-3” on the LCD. You will see the direction, “Status=Alm Ct.”
Step 4 Press the Status button to see a summary of alarms and severities against the slot. For example, you
might see “Slot-3 Alm CT:0 MJ:1 MN:2.” This means that there are no Critical alarms, one Major alarm,
and two Minor alarms against the slot.
Step 5 If you want to view the alarms against a port on the card, such as Port 3 of the OC-3 card you viewed
previously, press the Port button until you see “Port-3 Status=Alm Ct.”
Step 6 Press Status to view alarm count against the port. You will see a message similar to “Port-3 Alm CT:0
MJ:1 MN:0.” This means that there is one Major alarm against this port.

To return to the previous view from the Port screen, continue to press Port until the display cycles
through all the ports on the slot. For instance, on the OC-3 card, press Port until it cycles past Slot 4 and
you see “Slot.”
To return to the node menu from the Slot screen, press Slot until you cycle through all the slots and see
“Node.”
If you do not press any buttons, the LCD will return to its default display with the node name. However,
if you did not cycle through the options to return to the node status, you will see the slot or port where
you last checked status.
Purpose Use this procedure to view an alarm summary for a node, slot, or port
without using CTC.
