Parameter Description

Line Alarm State

Status of the line alarm. A value of zero indicates no alarms.

Line Statistical Alarm State

RAI Severity

Used to set up the severity of RAI alarm. When RAI alarm is detected, the BNM sends the alarm with the appropriate alarm status. Can be minor or major.

Near End Alarm Up Count

Specifies the increment to the near-end alarm integration counters. The local alarms are LOS and LOF. The default is 6, and the integration counter is incremented by this value every 10 milliseconds when the alarm persists. The counter is decremented by the value of Near End Alarm Down Count while there is no alarm (the counter does not decrement below zero). When the integration counter exceeds dsx3NEAlarmThreshold, an alarm of the severity specified for the particular NE alarm is declared.

Near End Alarm Down Count

Specifies the decrement to the near-end alarm integration counters. The local alarms are LOS and LOF. The default is 1, and the integration counter is decremented by this value every 10 milliseconds while no alarm persists. The counter is incremented by the value of Near End Alarm Up Count while there is no alarm (the counter does not decrement below zero). When the integration counter reaches zero, any alarm previously declared is removed.

Near End Alarm Threshold

Determines the value that the alarm integration counter must reach for a near-end alarm to be declared. If the up count is 6, the down count is 1, and the threshold is 1500, an alarm is integrated in 2.5 seconds and removed in 15 seconds.

Far End Alarm Up Count

Determines the value that the alarm integration counter must reach for a near-end alarm to be declared. If the up count is 6, the down count is 1, and the threshold is 1500, an alarm is integrated in 2.5 seconds and removed in 15 seconds.

Far End Alarm Down Count

Specifies the decrement to the far-end alarm integration counters. The local alarms are RAI and AIS. The default is 1, and the integration counter is decremented by this value every 10 milliseconds while no alarm persists. The counter is incremented by the value of Far End Alarm Up Count while there is no alarm (the counter does not decrement below zero). When the integration counter decrements to zero, any previously declared alarm is removed.

Far End Alarm Threshold

Determines the value that the alarm integration counter must reach for a far-end alarm to be declared. If the up count is 6, the down count is 1, and the threshold is 1500, an alarm is integrated in 2.5 seconds and removed in 15 seconds.

Statistical Alarm Severity

Used to set up the severity of any of the statistical alarms. When a statistical counter exceeds it specified threshold, the AUM sends the alarm with the appropriate severity. Can be minor or major.
