Important!

The LNW48, LNW50, LNW54, or LNW203 OC-12 OLIU circuit packs are required in the Main slots at a DS1 subshelf.

Install the required circuit packs in the Main slots at the DS1 subshelf.

Important!

The system Timing Mode should be provisioned to Free Running to avoid Holdover alarms before adding the DS1 subshelf to the multishelf DCS system. The timing parameters for a subshelf are set automatically as part of the subshelf startup procedure.

Select Configuration → Timing/Sync to provision the system Timing Mode to Free Running.

NOTICE Service-disruption hazard

Improperly-seated circuit packs or missing apparatus blanks may cause service hits on in-service systems.

All slots in Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX must be equipped with fully-seated circuit packs or apparatus blanks to prevent service hits on in-service systems.

Install 177D Apparatus Blanks or LNW98 circuit packs in any unused Function/Growth slots.

Important!

All slots in the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX must be equipped with fully-seated circuit packs or apparatus blanks.

Perform one of the following depending on whether or not you have already provisioned circuit packs and ports for service:

• Circuit packs and/or ports were provisioned in this procedure:

  Perform the following to delete any cross-connections, test access cross-connections, loopbacks, or protection switches that may have been made during testing:

  1. Select View → Cross-Connections from the System View menu. Select Shelf from the View Cross Connections window, then click Select. Print or save the cross-connections to be deleted, then click Close. Select Configuration → Cross-Connections from the System View window to start the Cross Connection Wizard. Follow the instruction in the Wizard to delete the necessary cross-connections.

  2. Select Fault → Analysis → Test Access from the System View menu to access the Test Access Wizard and verify that no test access cross-connections exist. If required use the Test Access Wizard to delete any existing test access cross-connections.

  3. Select View → Loopback from the System View menu. Select Shelf from the View Loopbacks window, then click Select. Print or save the existing loopbacks to be released, then click Close.

     Select Fault → Analysis → Loopback from the System View menu. Expand the details in the Loopback window, select the port with the loopback to be released, then click Select. Select Release and the Loopback Type, then click Apply at the bottom of the Loopback window. Click Yes to the Warning message to release the loopback. Click Close to exit.

  4. Select View → Protection from the System View menu. Select the required protection group, then click Select. Note the Protection Switch State. Repeat for each protection group, then click Close.

     If required, select Fault → Protection Switch from the System View menu to access the required protection group and clear any protection switches. Click Apply and click Yes. If required, repeat for each protection group, then click Close.

• Circuit packs and/or ports were not provisioned in this procedure:

  The following command resets all system provisionable parameters and cross-connections to factory default values. If you have already set provisionable parameters for the installed circuit packs/ports, they will be reset to factory default values.

  From the System View menu, select Fault → Reset → Initialize System to reset system parameters to default values, if required. Read all the warnings and follow the prompts to execute the command.

Result:

You will be logged off the system during the controller reset and provisionable parameters will be set to factory default.

A flashing b in the IND display on the SYSCTL indicates that a boot is in progress. During the boot, the b may extinguish for up to 20 seconds and then resume flashing.

Holdover alarm may also occur since timing mode reverts back to External. If required to silence alarm, select Configuration → Timing/Sync and provision the system timing mode to Free Running.

Add the DS1 subshelf to the existing multishelf DCS application, when required.
