Procedure 14-9: Perform LED test on VLNC2 SYSCTL, VLNC35, and VLNC5x SONET/SDH Transport circuit packs

- Overview

Use this procedure to test VLNC2 SYSCTL, VLNC35, and VLNC5x SONET/SDH Transport circuit pack LEDs.

Important!

The LED test does not affect the LEDs on the fan unit, or VLNC40/42/60/61/64 circuit packs.

- Privilege level

You must log in as either a Privileged, General, or Maintenance user to complete this procedure.

- Before you begin

Prior to performing this procedure:

  1. Refer to Before you begin and Required equipment in this chapter.

  2. Refer to Electrostatic discharge in Chapter 1, Safety.

  3. Ensure that Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 is equipped with required circuit packs at the node being tested.

Steps

Complete the following steps to perform the LED test.

 
1

Important!

All LEDs on the shelf may be tested by using Fault → Test → LED or the ACO/TST push-button on the SYSCTL circuit pack. Select Fault → Test → LED to test LEDs on an individual circuit pack. The LED test does not affect the LEDs on the fan unit.

If ...

Then...

using the ACO/TST push-button on the SYSCTL circuit pack,

Continue with Step 2.

selecting Fault → Test → LED,

Proceed to Step 4.


2

Press and hold the ACO/TST push-button momentarily on the SYSCTL circuit pack. Verify that all circuit pack LEDs light, and release the ACO/TST push-button. The LEDs revert to their previous state.

If the ACO/TST push-button is pressed for five or more seconds and released, the LEDs light for approximately eight seconds and revert to their previous state.


3

Did the LED test pass?

If...

Then...

Yes

STOP! End of Procedure.

No

Contact your next level of support.


4

From the System View menu, select Fault → Test → LED.


5

Highlight either Shelf (tests all shelf LEDs) or CP xxx (tests individual circuit pack LEDs) and click Select.

Result:

The Test LED window opens.


6

In the Number of Iterations field, enter a number from 1 to 10 from the pull-down menu to indicate the number of cycles during which the LED test should be repeated and click OK.

Important!

On-site personnel must be physically in front of NE to witness the LED test cycles.

Result:

For each iteration:

  1. All LEDs for the specified address light.

  2. After 10 seconds, all LEDs go off.

  3. After another 10 seconds, all LEDs are updated to show the current status of the system.


7

Did the LED test pass?

If...

Then...

Yes

STOP! End of Procedure.

No

Contact your next level of support.
