The MCA Board Reports an Execution Failure

The MCA board reports an execution failure if the wavelength is not set to the monitor status.

Product

OptiX BWS 1600G, WDM, OSN 6800, OSN 8800

Fault Type

Spectrum Analyzer Unit

Symptom

To analyze the OSNR, a user sets the MCA board but mistakenly sets a wrong wavelength to the monitor status. As this wavelength is received from the opposite end, wavelength 192.3 nm of port 1 need be set to the monitor status. Instead, the user mistakenly sets wavelength 192.3 nm of port 2 of the MAC card to the monitor status. During the analysis on the laser spectrum, the MCA board prompts execution failure.

Cause Analysis

A wrong port is selected for monitoring.

Procedure

1. Set the right port and wavelength received from the opposite end to the monitor status.
2. The problem is solved.

Reference Information

None.
