green
All parameters are within the given range, everything is ok.
red
One or more parameters is out of range, fault state.
orange
One or more parameters is out of range, but defined as warning state.
3.2.1 Reading of LFRX receiver card
If a LFRX card is installed, you can read the following parameters:
Parameter
Name
Description
Opt. Pwr
This parameter shows the received optical power. The colour code of this
parameter tells you, if the value is in the range (green) or not (red). The
values are given by the LFRX card and can not be changed.
Alarm threshold values are: 0.22mW as low limit, 2.5mW as high limit.
This is the first of 2 redundancy switching criteria (if the redundancy
switching option is installed and activated). When this value falls below
0.22mW, redundancy switching will be initiated
RF Pwr
This value shows the output RF power of the LFRX card. The colour code of
this parameter tells you if the value is in range (green) or not (orange). The
values are given by the LFRX card and can not be changed.
Alarm threshold values are: RFmin typ. -31dBm (-38...-28dBm), RFmax typ. -
5dBm (-10...-3dBm)
The measurement range is approx. -45...0dBm (range varies by changing RF
offset on Setup page, provided values are valid for RF offset = -42dB)
The RF threshold is a parameter that can bet set to any value >=-99dBm in
the configuration menu. If the current RF power is below the RF threshold it
