Circuit Pack Description 7
Purpose of Circuit 7
The System Controller (SYSCTL) circuit pack is the main controller in the system.
It has control over all FT-2000 OC-48 Lightwave System functions, and together
with the System Memory (SYSMEM) circuit pack, provides all user interfaces to
the system.
Beginning with Release 7.2.7-ADR, the LAA23C
*
SYSCTL circuit pack is used in
OC-48 point-to-point and bidirectional ring applications.
Faceplate LED 7
The SYSCTL circuit pack has a red FAULT LED on its faceplate (Figure 7-1). The
red FAULT LED is lighted when a circuit pack failure is detected or when the
circuit pack loses power. If the circuit pack loses power, a separate path is
provided for power from the SYSMEM circuit pack to light the FAULT LED on the
SYSCTL circuit pack.

* LAA23 was previously discontinued and replaced by LAA23B. LAA23B was discontinued
April 30, 2001 and replaced by LAA23C. See Table 7-1 for software compatibility
information. The LAA23C circuit pack is compatible with (non-TARP) Release 7.2.7 and
later releases. To obtain LAA23B circuit packs (107712689) through the Lucent reuse
