HP-TIM
Default Severities: Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA) for VCTRM-HP; Minor (MN), Non-Service-Affecting
(NSA) for VCMON-HP
Logical Objects: VCMON-HP, VCTRM-HP
The TIM High-Order TIM Failure alarm indicates that the trace identifier J1 byte of the high-order (VC-4 or
VC-3) overhead is faulty. HP-TIM occurs when there is a mismatch between the transmitted and received J1
identifier byte in the SONET path overhead. The error can originate at the transmit end or the receive end.
Clear the HP-TIM Alarm
SUMMARY STEPS
1.
Use an optical test set capable of viewing SONET path overhead to determine the validity of the J1 byte.
For specific procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer. Examine the signal as
near to the reporting card as possible.
2.
If the output card signal is valid, complete the

procedure.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
Use an optical test set capable of viewing SONET path overhead to determine the validity of the J1 byte. For specific
procedures to use the test set equipment, consult the manufacturer. Examine the signal as near to the reporting card as
possible.
• Examine the signal as close as possible to the output card.
