1 Getting Started
1.1 Introduction
The PNMT is a PASOLINK Network Management Terminal developed by NEC for
management of NECs PASOLINK family radio transmission network. The PNMT is a
scaled down version of PASOLINK Network Management System (PNMS) that is
designed as a maintenance tool for field engineers to locally and remotely monitor alarms,
control points, generate reports, and archive data, all within a familiar graphical user
interface, and all in real time. The PNMT is a mobile laptop computer fitted with NEC
PNMT software package that interfaces and controls NEC PASOLINK series short haul
radio equipment.
This software package remote monitors and controls the status and configuration of an
entire PASOLINK network with associated equipment as well as the performance of the
actual microwave links.

2.15.4 Relay Configuration
There are 7 relays in the IDU. Consequently, 7 parallel alarms can be defined. Relays
RL01, RL02 and RL03 have fixed alarms. Maintenance, PS ALM and CPU Alarm are
outputted on RL01, RL02 and RL03 respectively.
RL04 to RL07 are user-definable relays for Housekeeping (HK), Cluster alarm or other
external parallel alarms. If the HK-OUTs are enabled, RL04 to RL07 are allocated for
Housekeeping (HK). Cluster alarm 1 and 2 are outputted on RL07 and RL06 respectively.

NOTE
Relays RL04 to RL07 are available for allocation of
Housekeeping (HK), Cluster alarms and equipment
alarms. These alarms are outputted on the same relay.

CAUTION:
When setting RL07 or RL-06 to output the cluster alarm, it
is recommended that Housekeeping (HK) and equipment
alarms be removed from the form this is to ensure that
RL07 or RL06 will output only the cluster alarm.
The PNMT allows the user to configure the relays in a table format. The columns indicate
the relays (RL01 to RL07) and the rows indicate the parallel alarms available. The
following indicators are used in the table:
Out indicates that the alarm - in the corresponding row, is issued on the
corresponding relay.
HK Indicates that the corresponding relay is used for House Keeping.
Blank button not related to the corresponding alarm.

To set the relay configuration:
1. Click [Relay Configuration] button in Aux. I/O window.
2. Select the HK-OUT used in the equipment. There are four (4) available HK-OUTs
in the system. Selecting 1/2/3/4 button means all HK-OUTs will be enable;
1/2/3 means only HK-OUT 1, 2 and 3 will be enabled; and so on. If the HK-
OUTs will not be used, select Disable button.

and the ATPC parameters can be set. The ATPC has five (5) parameters:
ATPC (MAX) (TX MAX Power)
ATPC (MIN) (TX MIN Power)
RX Threshold
Additional Attenuation (Additional ATT) (only available for the specific type of ODU)
ODU Alarm Mode
The procedure for setting these parameters will be presented in this section.

2.19.3.1 ATPC (MAX) (TX MAX Power)
When the ATPC is in operation, the maximum transmission power (dB) can be set using
this function.

1. Click on [TX MAX Power] button in the
ATPC status section on the Provisioning
window.
2. Set the power (dB) in the ensuing window.
You can either highlight the input field and
enter the dB value using the keypad or use
the arrows on the right-hand corner of the
field to increase or decrease the value shown
in the input field.
3. Click on [Execute] button to apply the maximum ATPC TX power.
4. Click on [Close] button when finished.

1. Click on the [RX Threshold] button in the
ATPC status section on the Provisioning
window.
2. Set the power (dB) in the ensuing window.

4. Click on [Close] button when finished.

2.19.3.5 ODU Alarm Mode
In cases wherein the ODU losses communication with the IDU due to failure of some sort,
the response of the ODU can be preset using this function. Since the control function of
the TX power is in the IDU, the ODU will be cut-off to this control when a failure in the
communication between the ODU and the IDU occurs. In this case, the ODU either mutes
the TX or Hold the current TX power, depending on the preset ODU ALM mode.
To set the ODU Alarm mode:
1. Click on the [ODU Alarm Mode] button in the ATPC status section on the
Provisioning window.

2. Select the action of the ODU in case of IDU communication failure. For ATPC,
MAX Hold, MIN Hold or Hold mode is available.
