2.8.4 Physical Card Reseating, Resetting, and Replacement
This section gives instructions for physically reseating and replacing TSC card, SSXC cards, and traffic
cards.
Reset a Card with a Card Pull (Reseat)
Note
If you are pulling a TSC card, determine whether a TSC card is active or standby by positioning the
cursor over the TSC card graphic to view the status.
Note
Resetting a standby TSC card does not change its status to active.
Step 1
Ensure that the card you want to reset is in standby mode.
(A TSC card that is ready for service has a green SRV LED illuminated. An active TSC card has a green
ACT/STBY LED illuminated, but a standby card does not have this LED illuminated.)
If you run the cursor over the TSC card in CTC, a popup displays the card’s status (whether active or
standby).
Step 2
Unlatch the top and bottom ejector levers on the card.
Step 3
Physically pull the card at least partly out of the slot until the lighted LEDs turn off.
Step 4
Wait 30 seconds. Reinsert the card and close the ejector levers.
Note
The TSC card takes several minutes to reboot. Refer to the “Card Features and Functions”
chapter in the
Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Reference Manual
for more information about LED
behavior during TSC card reboots.
Note
When a standby TSC card is removed and reinserted (reseated), all three fan lights might
momentarily illuminate, indicating that the fan controller cards have also reset.
Replace an SSXC Card
Warning
Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module or a fan. Exposed
circuitry could constitute an energy hazard.
Statement 206
Note
The ONS 15600 SDH system dynamically changes the preferred copy status from one SSXC to the
redundant copy if an error is detected on a card port. You can see this change in the CTC node view
Maintenance > Preferred Copy window Currently Used field. If errors are detected on both SSXC
copies, the Currently Used field says Both.
