Note:
Up to two chassis can share the use of a single bulk power supply module or pair
of modules. See To Share Power Between Two Chassis (on page 11) for details.
All chassis connected in this daisy-chain must be powered and have fans
installed. For correct operation, proper cooling of the chassis must be maintained
over the specified temperature range.
A single chassis equipped with an ICIM2-XD must also have its ICIM OUT port
terminated with an ICIM OUT terminator, part number 4013014. The ICIM OUT
terminator ships with the ICIM2-XD.
4 4021339 Rev B
Step 2: Make Chassis-to-Chassis ICIM Connections
1 Locate the chassis ID switch at upper right on the front panel of each chassis. The
switch can be set to any two-digit value from 00 to 99 (but avoid setting the value
to 00, as explained below).
2 Use the chassis ID switch to set each chassis ID number to a unique value.
Note:
The chassis ID number can be changed while the chassis is under power.
However, the new ID number will not become effective until chassis power is
cycled or the ICIM2-XD is rebooted.
The chassis numbering scheme used is discretionary, except that each
interconnected chassis must have a unique ID number.
It is important to avoid using chassis ID number 00 in some circumstances, as
explained in the following caution.
CAUTION:
Setting the chassis ID to 00 is not recommended as it causes the entity MIB to violate
RFC-2737 by creating an invalid object identifier. This may affect operation with some
management systems that use the entity MIB. In particular, attempts to access the fans
(in virtual slot 0) in chassis 00 will fail if made via serial TNCS (or ROSA-EM) or LCI.
Important: If you change the chassis ID number while the chassis is under power,
you must cycle power to the chassis or reboot the ICIM2-XD in order for the new
number to take effect.
4021339 Rev B 5
Chapter 1 Quick Start Guide
AC Power Systems
AC power for each AC-to-DC bulk power supply module enters the chassis through
a dedicated back-panel IEC power inlet for each power supply module.
Confirm that the IEC power cord or cords supplied with the chassis have the correct
plug configuration for the country of use.
The voltage input range for AC systems is 100 to 240 VAC, single phase, 50-60 Hz.
AC input current is 14 A maximum. The chassis should be connected to a single
outlet circuit with fuse or circuit breaker overcurrent protection rated 15 A
minimum.
Important:
Use only a grounded electrical outlet when connecting the unit to a power
source. If you do not know whether the outlet is grounded, consult with a
qualified electrician.
Maintain reliable earth grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply and ground connections made via power strips or any
6 4021339 Rev B
Step 3: Make Electrical Power Connections
DC Power Systems
External -48 VDC operating power for each DC-to-DC converter (mounted in the
chassis just behind the fan assembly) enters the chassis via a dedicated DC power
inlet mounted on the chassis back panel.
The voltage input range for DC power systems is -40 VDC to -72 VDC.
Use #16 AWG wire for DC field wiring. The #16 AWG wiring from the external -48
VDC supply is attached to a 3-pin nylon connector which, in turn, plugs into the DC
power inlet.
Terminate the chassis side of the cable with a nylon plug of the type supplied with
the chassis. Order additional nylon plugs and connector pins from your preferred
supplier, as follows:
Molex #03-12-1036 nylon 3-pin connector
Molex #18-12-1222 crimp socket contact (3)
Use a Molex Crimp Service Tool #63811-1000 or equivalent to crimp the pins to the
cable.
After terminating the cable, twist the conductors loosely (a full turn every few inches
is sufficient).
As installed in the DC power connector with the locking tab down, the left pin of the
nylon connector is the return, the right pin carries -48 VDC, and the center pin is
chassis ground.
4021339 Rev B 7
Chapter 1 Quick Start Guide
Earth-Grounding Conditions
The chassis is designed to permit connection of the earthed conductor of the DC
supply circuit to chassis ground. Before making this connection, confirm that all of
the following conditions are met:
The chassis is connected directly to the DC supply system earthing electrode
conductor or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or bus to which
the DC supply system earthing electrode conductor is connected.
The chassis is located in the same immediate area as other equipment connected
between the earthed conductor of the same DC supply circuit and earthing
conductor, such as in an adjacent cabinet. Also, the point of earthing of the DC
system must not be earthed elsewhere.
The DC power source is located within the same premises as the chassis.
There are no switching or disconnecting devices in the earthed circuit conductor
between the DC source and the point of connection of the earthing electrode
conductor.
DC Power Passing
An XD chassis with at least one AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed can
serve as an external DC power source for a second XD chassis. Passing DC power
from one chassis to another requires a DC power-passing cable made up as
described above, but with both ends of the cable terminated by a nylon DC power
connector. Two assembled DC power-passing cables are also available from the
factory:
Part number 4011730, 3 m DC power-passing cable
Part number 4023718, 2 ft DC power-passing cable

Step 3: Make Electrical Power Connections
DC Power Cord
Complete the following steps to install one or more DC power cords for each unused
bulk DC power supply slot as needed.
4021339 Rev B 9
Chapter 1 Quick Start Guide
1 Confirm that each unused bulk power supply slot is empty and covered by a
blanking panel.
2 Locate the DC wire terminal block (white nylon plug) pre-installed in each back-
panel DC power connector.
3 Remove the terminal block and note the locations of the left, middle, and right
terminals as shown below.
4 Obtain conductive pins (Molex #18-12-1222) for each DC wire terminal block for
each conductor to be used.
5 Attach #16 AWG power cable from the fuse panel to the pins and install them in
the terminal block as follows:
Left terminal: Return conductor
Middle terminal: Chassis ground (optional)
Right terminal: -48V DC conductor
6 Insert the wire terminal block into the DC power connector until it locks. Tug
lightly on the terminal block to confirm that it is locked in position.
7 Twist the conductors together loosely along the full length of the power cord (a
full turn every few inches is sufficient).
10 4021339 Rev B
Step 3: Make Electrical Power Connections
4 Gently slide the power supply module into the chassis until its power
connections join connectors on the midplane bus. Do not force the module into the
chassis. If properly aligned, it should slide in with minimal force.
5 If installing a second power supply, repeat the steps above for the second power
supply slot, and then continue with step 6.
6 Confirm that a DC-to-DC converter assembly is installed inside the chassis next
to the new bulk power supply module. This converter will be visible inside the
fan opening, mounted horizontally and held in place by a retaining screw.
7 Reinstall the fan assembly and tighten the two screws holding it and the power
supply module(s) in position.
8 Apply power and verify that the green LED on the front panel of each power
supply module illuminates, indicating normal operation.
9 Confirm that the fan assembly is operational. The fans should be audible once
the power supply is operating.
4021339 Rev B 11
Chapter 1 Quick Start Guide
CAUTION:
To preserve proper airflow within the chassis, all unused slots must be
covered by suitable blanking panels, as follows:

Step 3: Make Electrical Power Connections
Note: The steps described above assume that the first chassis contains two AC-to-DC
bulk power supply modules. This is the recommended configuration, as it provides
redundancy in the event of failure of one bulk power supply module or of one DC-
to-DC converter in either or both chassis. Other power configurations are possible.
To request further information, see Customer Support Information (on page 297).

MIB Software
MIBs are available in the software system release and should be compiled in your
SNMP tool. They are labeled as follows:
SCIATL-PRISMAII-ICIM-MIB.mib
SCIATL-PRISMAII-MODULE-MIB.mib
Trap Overview
The Prisma II system can be configured to provide various alarm and warning
conditions to an NMS or system monitor application.
There are nine different trap categories that can be independently enabled to provide
the desired level of information on events occurring in a system. These traps can be
forwarded to up to 10 different IP addresses. The trap filtering can be configured
uniquely for each user.
See SNMP Management (on page 171) for trap details.
Note: All trap types (module insertion, alarm events, etc.) are reported through the
Enhanced Alarm trap. Therefore, only the Enhanced Alarm traps are enabled by
default, and this is the recommended configuration.

Prisma II XD Platform
XD Chassis
The chassis houses all other system components. A midplane bus system inside the
chassis distributes electrical power to all installed modules. The midplane bus
system also transports communication and control signals between installed
application modules and the ICIM2-XD.
4021339 Rev B 35
Chapter 2 Introduction
CAUTION:
A single DC power connector cannot act as in input and an output connector at
the same time. Before applying external DC power, confirm that the AC-to-DC
bulk power supply slot associated with the DC power connector is empty and
covered by a blanking panel.
CAUTION:
To preserve proper airflow within the chassis, all unused slots must be
covered by suitable blanking panels, as follows:
AC-to-DC bulk power supply module blanking panel, part number 4021618
CAUTION:
When connecting chassis together for power sharing, use either a factory DC
power-passing cable, part number 4011730 (3 m) or 4023718 (2 ft), or a custom
cable made in accordance with the instructions in this document. Use of other
cables for this purpose is not supported.

Prisma II XD Platform
As shown above, each AC-to-DC bulk power supply module feeds a separate,
dedicated DC-to-DC converter assembly. The chassis ships with two DC-to-DC
converters installed, but without either AC-to-DC bulk power supply module
installed.
Each DC-to-DC converter can power a full chassis on its own. The use of dual
independent converters, together with dual AC-to-DC bulk power supplies, allows
for full power supply redundancy.
Power Sharing
Routing of -48 VDC power from an AC powered chassis to a second chassis is
achieved by connecting a DC power-passing cable between the DC power
connectors of the two chassis. Two such cables are currently available from the
factory:
Part number 4011730, 3 m DC power passing cable
Part number 4023718, 2 ft DC power passing cable
CAUTION:
When connecting chassis together for power sharing, use either a factory DC
power-passing cable, part number 4011730 (3 m) or 4023718 (2 ft), or a custom
cable made in accordance with the instructions in this document. Use of other
cables for this purpose is not supported.
WARNING:
Any external power supply must provide proper electrical components to
power the chassis or risk serious equipment damage or personal injury.
ICIM2-XD
The Prisma II Intelligent Communications Interface Module 2 for the XD platform
(ICIM2-XD) provides users with access to application module configuration settings,
status monitoring, and alarm monitoring.
The ICIM2-XD is logically identical to the ICIM2 module designed to fit the Prisma II
Platform chassis. However, the ICIM2-XD is physically smaller than the ICIM2 and
lacks a front-panel keypad or liquid-crystal display. Because of these physical
differences, the ICIM2-XD can only be installed in an XD chassis and an ICIM2 can
only be installed in a Prisma II chassis.
Note: When a Prisma II chassis and a Prisma II XD chassis are part of a daisy-chain
connection of two or more chassis, a single ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD can and must be
used to control both chassis.
4021339 Rev B 37
Chapter 2 Introduction
XD Application Modules
Prisma II XD application modules perform a prescribed set of independent transmit
or receive functions. These modules install from the front of the chassis, are hot-
swappable, and have plug-and-play capability.
All XD application modules share a common half-height, high-density form factor.
Four modules are currently available:
Prisma II 1310 nm High Density Transmitter
Prisma II 1550 nm High Density QAM Transmitter
Prisma II High Density Forward Receiver
Prisma II High Density Dual Reverse Receiver
Additional applications may become available in the future. For further information,
contact Scientific Atlanta using the information provided in Customer Support
Information (on page 297).
Detailed information about each application module is provided in the installation
and operation guide for that module. For document ordering information, see
Related Publications (on page 33).

Prisma II XD Chassis
Prisma II XD Chassis
The XD chassis houses the fan assembly, one or two AC-to-DC bulk power supply
modules, a chassis control board (CCB), two internal DC-to-DC converter
assemblies, the ICIM2-XD, and up to 16 high-density application modules.
Through an internal midplane bus, the chassis provides modules with electrical
power, a shared serial bus, a high-speed ICIM2-XD data bus, and connections to two
back-panel RF connections per application module. The midplane interface is
designed so that application modules can be replaced even when the system is
under power and fully operational.
Ports on the front and back of the chassis support external communication with an
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD via the midplane bus. This communication enables system
management via local craft interface (LCI), command line interface (CLI), hypertext
transfer protocol (HTTP), or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
commands.
A fiber tray built into the chassis provides strain relief and facilitates front-to-back
routing for optical cables connected to the application modules.
Chassis Features
The chassis has several noteworthy operational features, including hot-swap,
resource sharing, and redundancy. These are described in more detail below.
4021339 Rev B 39
Chapter 2 Introduction
CAUTION:
For a chassis under power, field replacement of the fans, AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or DC-to-DC converter assemblies must be completed
in two minutes or less to prevent possible chassis overheating due to
temporary removal of the fan assembly.
CAUTION:
Before removing an AC-to-DC bulk power supply module from the chassis, disable
AC input power to the module by disconnecting the associated AC power cord.
Before removing a DC-to-DC converter assembly from the chassis, disable DC input
power to the converter assembly by disconnecting the associated AC power cord (if
AC operated) or DC power-passing cable (if DC operated).
Do not disable power to both sides of the chassis at the same time when such action
may cause a loss of service.
Resource Sharing
The AC-to-DC bulk power supply modules and the ICIM2-XD control module are
resources that can be shared by multiple chassis.
An AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed in one chassis can provide
operating power for a second chassis by connecting a DC power-passing cable
between the two chassis. Power sharing saves cost and improves polling cycle times
by reducing the number of intelligent modules, and thus the polling overhead,
associated with each chassis.
The ICIM2-XD in one chassis can be used to control modules installed in up to three
additional chassis (four chassis total) through a series "daisy chain" connection from
the ICIM OUT port of the first chassis to the ICIM IN port of the second, and so on.
Redundancy
Terminal blocks on the back panel of the chassis provide ALARM IN and ALARM
OUT control lines for each of the 16 application module slots (32 alarm signal lines
total). The alarm outputs are brought HIGH (+5 VDC) by hardware or software
during module removal or other fault condition. The alarm signal lines allow for
external configuration of redundancy options, including the option to locate master
and slave modules in separate chassis.
Chassis Configuration
The chassis has front slots that support up to 16 Prisma II XD half-height, high-
density application modules. Two slots on the chassis back panel accept up to two
AC-to-DC bulk power supply modules. A third slot on the back holds the ICIM2-XD
control module.

number.
Note: Every chassis daisy-chained to an individual ICIM2 or
ICIM2-XD must have a unique chassis ID number.
4021339 Rev B 43
Chapter 2 Introduction
Part Function
RF Connectors A pair of RF connectors for each application module slot (1-16) support
up to two independent RF ports per module.
Chassis Midplane
The chassis midplane provides bus connections for distribution of power and
communication signals. The midplane also connects two RF ports on the module
back panel to each of the 16 application module slots.
The chassis midplane layout is shown below.
Fan Assembly
The fan assembly is installed in the back of the chassis at the factory. It is held in
place by two screws, one on either side of the assembly. The assembly can be
removed as a unit for periodic maintenance or inspection. Tools are needed to
remove or install the fan assembly.
The fan assembly must be removed to install or remove either of the AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or to gain access to the DC-to-DC converter assemblies
mounted in the chassis just behind the fans.
Important: Do not operate the chassis for more than two minutes without the fan
assembly installed. For safe operation, proper cooling of the chassis must be
maintained over the specified temperature range.
CAUTION:
Before removing an AC-to-DC bulk power supply module from the chassis, disable
AC input power to the module by disconnecting the associated AC power cord.
Before removing a DC-to-DC converter assembly from the chassis, disable DC input
power to the converter assembly by disconnecting the associated AC power cord (if
AC operated) or DC power-passing cable (if DC operated).
Do not disable power to both sides of the chassis at the same time when such action
may cause a loss of service.

Chapter 2 Introduction
LED Control
The chassis control board controls three front-panel LED indicators:
The On LED lights to indicate that the midplane bus has all required DC
operating voltage.
The Alarm LED blinks to indicate a minor alarm, and glows steady to signal a
major alarm.
The ICIM LED lights to indicate that an ICIM2-XD module is installed in the
chassis.
Alarm Signaling
The chassis control board has alarm-out contacts to control an external alarming
device triggered by an event. It can also read an input alarm from an external source.
These two lines are routed to ALARM IN and ALARM OUT connectors on the back
of the chassis.
Fuse Protection
The chassis control board is protected by a fuse to reduce the chance of losing the
entire chassis in the event of a component failure on the board. This fuse is soldered
in place, and is not intended to be replaced in the field.
46 4021339 Rev B
XD Chassis Fan Assembly
Fan Operation
Cooling air is allowed to enter the front of the chassis through perforated panels on
either side of the fiber tray. The fans draw air through these panels, up through the
cooling fins of the application modules, across the inside top of the enclosure, and
out the back of the chassis.
Note: The AC-to-DC bulk power supply modules contain their own smaller fans for
cooling the power supply circuits. These fans work independently of the chassis fan
assembly.
4021339 Rev B 47
Chapter 2 Introduction
Power Sharing
The -48 VDC output from an AC-to-DC bulk power supply module in one XD
chassis can be passed to a second XD chassis. A DC-to-DC converter in the second
chassis then uses the external -48 VDC to provide local working voltages to the
chassis midplane bus. This bulk power-sharing scheme avoids the need to purchase
a new set of bulk power supply modules when adding a chassis.
If two AC-to-DC bulk power supplies are installed in one XD chassis, the DC output
from each bulk supply can be passed to the corresponding DC input of a second
chassis. This scheme provides redundant power for both chassis: if one bulk DC
power supply should fail, the remaining power supply takes the full load for both
chassis.
48 4021339 Rev B
AC-to-DC Bulk Power Supply Modules
Important: Only the power supply configurations identified as valid above are
supported. Other configurations may produce unexpected results, and therefore are
not supported.
4021339 Rev B 49
Chapter 2 Introduction
Power Inlets
Two sets of power inlets are available on the chassis back panel to match the
electrical power source available at different installation sites.
The DC power inlets accept a nominal -48 VDC input (-40 to -72 VDC). When not
used as an input, these connectors can be used to route -48 VDC out for use by
other chassis.
The AC power inlets accept local utility power (100 to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz) via
standard IEC power inlets.
The DC power inlets are provided with locking three-wire terminal blocks, which
come pre-inserted in the DC power inlets.
Important: Use an equipotential bonding conductor to make a connection from the
chassis ground stud to a reliable earthing mechanism at the installation site. For
additional information, refer to EN 50083-1/A1:1977.
Note: The chassis ships with the CCB, fan assembly, and DC-to-DC converter
assemblies and with no AC-to-DC bulk power supplies installed. The chassis can be
ordered with or without an ICIM2-XD installed. See the Prisma II XD Platform Data
Sheet, part number 7012804 for ordering information.
50 4021339 Rev B
AC-to-DC Bulk Power Supply Modules
4021339 Rev B 51
Chapter 2 Introduction
DC-to-DC Converters
All XD chassis ship with two DC-to-DC converter assemblies installed. Both
converters are mounted inside the chassis just behind the fan assembly. Each DC-to-
DC converter uses the -48 VDC output from its corresponding bulk power supply
module to develop +24, +5, and -5 VDC chassis working voltages.
Each DC-to-DC converter has a red LED mounted on its PC board. This LED glows
if a fault occurs in the converter while it is under power.
Inspection of the status LEDs and removal and replacement of the DC-to-DC
converters requires removal of the fan assembly.
CAUTION:
For a chassis under power, field replacement of the fans, AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or DC-to-DC converter assemblies must be completed
in two minutes or less to prevent possible chassis overheating due to
temporary removal of the fan assembly.
Note:
Do not operate the chassis with the fan assembly removed for more than two
minutes. Otherwise, overheating may result.
DC-to-DC converters can be replaced in the field but they are not hot-swappable.
Before replacing a converter, disconnect its -48 VDC power supply, and do not
restore DC power until the converter has been fully installed in the chassis.
The chassis can remain operational during the converter replacement as long as
the second DC-to-DC converter is operating.

Prisma II ICIM2-XD
Prisma II ICIM2-XD
The ICIM2-XD provides an interface to Prisma II High Density application modules.
It supports communication with the application modules via command line interface
(CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), or through a user-friendly
ICIM Web Interface.
The ICIM2-XD can control up to 64 application modules through a daisy-chain
connection of up to four chassis.
Important:
All chassis connected in a daisy-chain must be powered and have their own fan
assembly installed.
All chassis connected in this daisy-chain must have a unique chassis
identification (ID) number.
To ensure communications with all application modules, only one ICIM2-XD
may be installed per daisy-chain configuration.

Site Requirements
Site Requirements
This section describes environmental, physical, and wiring requirements to be met
prior to equipment installation. Before you begin, make certain that your installation
site meets the requirements discussed in this section.
Operating Environment
CAUTION:
Avoid damage to this product! Operating this product outside the specified
operating temperature limits voids the warranty.
Operating temperature at the air inlet must be between 0°C and 50°C (32°F and
122°F).
Keep cooling vents clear and free of obstructions.
Provide ventilation as needed using one or more of the following methods.
- Air-deflecting baffles
- Forced-air ventilation
- Air outlets above enclosures, either alone or in combination
Note: Refer to module data sheets and product guides for product-specific module
temperature specifications.
AC Power Systems
AC power for each AC-to-DC bulk power supply module enters the chassis through
a dedicated back-panel IEC power inlet for each power supply module.
Confirm that the IEC power cord or cords supplied with the chassis have the correct
plug configuration for the country of use.
The voltage input range for AC systems is 100 to 240 VAC, single phase, 50-60 Hz.
AC input current is 14 A maximum. The chassis should be connected to a single
outlet circuit with fuse or circuit breaker overcurrent protection rated 15 A
minimum.
4021339 Rev B 57
Chapter 3 Hardware Installation
Important:
Use only a grounded electrical outlet when connecting the unit to a power
source. If you do not know whether the outlet is grounded, consult with a
qualified electrician.
Maintain reliable earth grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply and ground connections made via power strips or any
method other than direct connection to the branch circuit.
DC Power Systems
External -48 VDC operating power for each DC-to-DC converter (mounted in the
chassis just behind the fan assembly) enters the chassis via a dedicated DC power
inlet mounted on the chassis back panel.
The voltage input range for DC power systems is -40 VDC to -72 VDC.
Use #16 AWG wire for DC field wiring. The #16 AWG wiring from the external -48
VDC supply is attached to a 3-pin nylon connector which, in turn, plugs into the DC
power inlet.
Terminate the chassis side of the cable with a nylon plug of the type supplied with
the chassis. Order additional nylon plugs and connector pins from your preferred
supplier, as follows:
Molex #03-12-1036 nylon 3-pin connector
Molex #18-12-1222 crimp socket contact (3)
Use a Molex Crimp Service Tool #63811-1000 or equivalent to crimp the pins to the
cable.
After terminating the cable, twist the conductors loosely (a full turn every few inches
is sufficient).
As installed in the DC power connector with the locking tab down, the left pin of the
nylon connector is the return, the right pin carries -48 VDC, and the center pin is
chassis ground.
58 4021339 Rev B
Site Requirements
maximum.
The DC field wiring must include a readily accessible disconnect device that is
suitably approved and rated.
Earth-Grounding Conditions
The chassis is designed to permit connection of the earthed conductor of the DC
supply circuit to chassis ground. Before making this connection, confirm that all of
the following conditions are met:
The chassis is connected directly to the DC supply system earthing electrode
conductor or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or bus to which
the DC supply system earthing electrode conductor is connected.
The chassis is located in the same immediate area as other equipment connected
between the earthed conductor of the same DC supply circuit and earthing
conductor, such as in an adjacent cabinet. Also, the point of earthing of the DC
system must not be earthed elsewhere.
The DC power source is located within the same premises as the chassis.
There are no switching or disconnecting devices in the earthed circuit conductor
between the DC source and the point of connection of the earthing electrode
conductor.
DC Power Passing
An XD chassis with at least one AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed can
serve as an external DC power source for a second XD chassis. Passing DC power
from one chassis to another requires a DC power-passing cable made up as
described above, but with both ends of the cable terminated by a nylon DC power
connector. Two assembled DC power-passing cables are also available from the
factory:
Part number 4011730, 3 m DC power-passing cable
Part number 4023718, 2 ft DC power-passing cable
4021339 Rev B 59
Chapter 3 Hardware Installation
Unused Slots
Important: All unused slots in the chassis must be filled with blanking panels.
Application module blanking panels, part number 4023066, are available from the
factory. Replacement AC-to-DC bulk power supply blanking panels (part number
4021618) and ICIM2-XD blanking panels (part number 4021163) are also available, if
needed.

All chassis connected in this daisy-chain must be powered and have fans
installed. For correct operation, proper cooling of the chassis must be maintained
over the specified temperature range.
A single chassis equipped with an ICIM2-XD must also have its ICIM OUT port
terminated with an ICIM OUT terminator, part number 4013014. The ICIM OUT
terminator ships with the ICIM2-XD.
4021339 Rev B 65
Chapter 3 Hardware Installation
2 Use the chassis ID switch to set each chassis ID number to a unique value.
Note:
The chassis ID number can be changed while the chassis is under power.
However, the new ID number will not become effective until chassis power is
cycled or the ICIM2-XD is rebooted.
The chassis numbering scheme used is discretionary, except that each
interconnected chassis must have a unique ID number.
It is important to avoid using chassis ID number 00 in some circumstances, as
explained in the following caution.
CAUTION:
Setting the chassis ID to 00 is not recommended as it causes the entity MIB to violate
RFC-2737 by creating an invalid object identifier. This may affect operation with some
management systems that use the entity MIB. In particular, attempts to access the fans
(in virtual slot 0) in chassis 00 will fail if made via serial TNCS (or ROSA-EM) or LCI.
Important: If you change the chassis ID number while the chassis is under power,
you must cycle power to the chassis or reboot the ICIM2-XD in order for the new
number to take effect.
66 4021339 Rev B
Connecting the ICIM to Additional Chassis
The recommended method for forcing a search for new modules is to reboot the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. This can be accomplished either by physically removing and
reinserting the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD module or by issuing a reboot command via the
CLI interface.
To reboot the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD module via CLI, open a console session and type
the following commands at the CLI prompt.
CLI> icim
ICIM> reboot
Each of the additional modules will then be added to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD polling
cycle.
Note: Use of the CLI reboot command is preferred over the updateid command in
this case because a reboot will maintain synchronization with the element
management system.

Master-Slave Operation
All Prisma II modules ship from the factory configured as a “master.” They can be
reconfigured as "slave" or redundant modules through command line interface (CLI)
commands. The chassis allows for local hard-wired redundancy by using the
ALARM IN and ALARM OUT connectors on the connector interface panel. With
these connectors, a master-slave pair of modules can be configured so that if the
master fails, the slave takes over.

Fan Assembly
To Remove the Fan Assembly
The fan assembly is installed at the factory. It can be removed for maintenance or
inspection or to access the DC-to-DC converter assemblies by loosening the two
screws located on either side of the assembly, as shown below.
Important: Do not operate any chassis without the fans installed. For correct
operation, proper cooling of the chassis must be maintained over the specified
temperature range.
CAUTION:
Always use a screwdriver to loosen or tighten the screws holding the
application modules, ICIM2-XD, fan assembly, power supply modules, DC-to-
DC converters, or blanking panels in place. Do not attempt to loosen or
tighten these screws solely by hand.
CAUTION:
For a chassis under power, field replacement of the fans, AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or DC-to-DC converter assemblies must be completed
in two minutes or less to prevent possible chassis overheating due to
temporary removal of the fan assembly.

Power Sharing
Two Prisma II XD Chassis can operate from a single AC-to-DC bulk power supply
module or from a pair of bulk power supply modules. A power-chain connection is
used to route -48 VDC from a chassis with one or both bulk power supply modules
installed to a second chassis whose corresponding bulk power supply module slots
are empty and have blanking panels installed.
The following illustration shows the recommended cabling for power sharing
between an exclusively AC powered chassis (top) and an exclusively DC powered
chassis (bottom).

AC Power Systems
AC power for each AC-to-DC bulk power supply module enters the chassis through
a dedicated back-panel IEC power inlet for each power supply module.
Confirm that the IEC power cord or cords supplied with the chassis have the correct
plug configuration for the country of use.
The voltage input range for AC systems is 100 to 240 VAC, single phase, 50-60 Hz.
AC input current is 14 A maximum. The chassis should be connected to a single
outlet circuit with fuse or circuit breaker overcurrent protection rated 15 A
minimum.
Important:
Use only a grounded electrical outlet when connecting the unit to a power
source. If you do not know whether the outlet is grounded, consult with a
qualified electrician.
Maintain reliable earth grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply and ground connections made via power strips or any
method other than direct connection to the branch circuit.
74 4021339 Rev B
Installing the Power Supply
DC Power Systems
External -48 VDC operating power for each DC-to-DC converter (mounted in the
chassis just behind the fan assembly) enters the chassis via a dedicated DC power
inlet mounted on the chassis back panel.
The voltage input range for DC power systems is -40 VDC to -72 VDC.
Use #16 AWG wire for DC field wiring. The #16 AWG wiring from the external -48
VDC supply is attached to a 3-pin nylon connector which, in turn, plugs into the DC
power inlet.
Terminate the chassis side of the cable with a nylon plug of the type supplied with
the chassis. Order additional nylon plugs and connector pins from your preferred
supplier, as follows:
Molex #03-12-1036 nylon 3-pin connector
Molex #18-12-1222 crimp socket contact (3)
Use a Molex Crimp Service Tool #63811-1000 or equivalent to crimp the pins to the
cable.
After terminating the cable, twist the conductors loosely (a full turn every few inches
is sufficient).
As installed in the DC power connector with the locking tab down, the left pin of the
nylon connector is the return, the right pin carries -48 VDC, and the center pin is
chassis ground.
Earth-Grounding Conditions
The chassis is designed to permit connection of the earthed conductor of the DC
supply circuit to chassis ground. Before making this connection, confirm that all of
the following conditions are met:
4021339 Rev B 75
Chapter 3 Hardware Installation
DC Power Passing
An XD chassis with at least one AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed can
serve as an external DC power source for a second XD chassis. Passing DC power
from one chassis to another requires a DC power-passing cable made up as
described above, but with both ends of the cable terminated by a nylon DC power
connector. Two assembled DC power-passing cables are also available from the
factory:
Part number 4011730, 3 m DC power-passing cable
Part number 4023718, 2 ft DC power-passing cable
DC Power Connectors
The chassis back panel provides a separate DC power connector for each AC-to-DC
bulk power supply slot. The chassis ships with a white nylon plug installed in each
DC power connector. These white nylon plugs have no pins installed, and serve
mainly to guard against potential improper use of the DC power connector.
CAUTION:
A single DC power connector cannot act as in input and an output connector at
the same time. Before applying external DC power, confirm that the AC-to-DC
bulk power supply slot associated with the DC power connector is empty and
covered by a blanking panel.
Each DC power connector on the chassis back panel can serve as either a DC power
inlet or a DC power outlet, but not both, as follows:
With no AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed, the corresponding DC
power connector can serve as an inlet for -48 VDC supplied by a battery room, a
second XD chassis, or another external DC power source. In this configuration,
however, the same DC power connector cannot be used as a -48 VDC output.
With an AC-to-DC bulk power supply module installed, the corresponding DC
power connector can serve as an outlet for -48 VDC to power a second XD

Laser Warning
WARNING:
Avoid personal injury! The laser light source on this equipment (if a
transmitter) or the fiber cables connected to this equipment emit invisible
laser radiation. Avoid direct exposure to the laser light source.
Avoid personal injury! Viewing the laser output (if a transmitter) or fiber
cable with optical instruments (such as eye loupes, magnifiers, or
microscopes) may pose an eye hazard.
Overview
The ICIM2-XD serves as the interface between the user and the application modules
installed in a chassis or daisy chain. It also serves as the interface between each
application module in the chassis or daisy chain and the Transmission Network
Control System (TNCS). The ICIM2-XD supports configuration and status
monitoring for up to 64 modules located in 4 Prisma II XD chassis.
In most respects, ICIM2-XD operation is identical to that of ICIM and ICIM2 control
modules found in other Prisma II chassis. The ICIM2-XD features easy-to-use
software that is navigated remotely via CLI, SNMP, or the ICIM Web Interface.
Unlike the ICIM and ICIM2, however, the ICIM2-XD is mounted in the back of the
chassis and has no LCD display or keypad.
Important:
There can be only one ICIM2-XD per daisy-chain connection of Prisma II XD
chassis.
All chassis connected in a daisy chain must have a unique chassis identification
(ID) number.
The last chassis in a daisy chain must have a terminator installed in the ICIM
OUT connector. Otherwise, faulty communication with the ICIM2-XD may
occur.

SNMP Considerations
The following items should be considered when implementing SNMP.
The SNMP connection is made through the Ethernet port on the front of the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. (Use 10baseT cable with an RJ-45 connector.) In order to
meet the requirements of GR1089-CORE, a shielded cable must be used and both
ends must be grounded.
The network management system (NMS) must be installed behind a firewall to
prevent any ill-intentioned persons with an SNMP manager from accessing and
tampering with the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD.
When the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD has to handle excessive SNMP traffic, it will
respond slowly to both SNMP control and front panel input. If this occurs,
reduce the update rate of the SNMP manager.

Introduction ......................................................................................... 138
Replacing the Default Admin Account............................................ 141
Working With User Accounts ........................................................... 144
User Lockout ....................................................................................... 151
Introduction
The ICIM2 and ICIM2-XD support up to 16 user accounts. This chapter describes
user accounts in detail and explains how the system administrator (a user with
Admin level security access) can set up and edit user accounts through the CLI or
ICIM Web Interface. Additionally, this chapter includes a table of access levels and
corresponding resources, which identifies activities available to users with specific
privileges.
User Accounts
Each user account is set up with a username and password. To initiate an account,
the system administrator first chooses the access level and the status. Accounts to be
activated immediately are given the status enable, while those whose activation
should be delayed are given the status disable. The system administrator may also
adjust the inactivity timeout as well as the limit of failed log-in attempts for the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD.
When a user logs onto the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD via the CLI or ICIM Web Interface,
the username and password are checked for authentication. A check is also
performed to ensure that the user account is enabled. Users with disabled accounts
are not permitted access to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD.
Additionally, security levels are compared to ensure that the user is authorized to
access only the options appropriate to their access level. Another check verifies that
the user has not reached the login failure limit as defined by the system
administrator and saved in the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. A trap is sent if a user reaches
the failed login attempts limit, and the user is prevented from making further login
attempts for a designated lockout time period.
Usernames
Usernames, also known as login IDs, can be formed from the alphanumeric
characters A through Z (uppercase), a through z (lowercase), and the numbers 0
through 9. Usernames cannot contain special characters (such as @, %, and &) or
control characters (characters generated by holding down the Ctrl key). Usernames
must have at least 6 characters, cannot exceed 14 characters, and must contain at
least one alphabetic character and at least one numeric character.
The username cannot be changed once it is created. If entered incorrectly, the system
administrator must delete the user account and create a new account using the
correct username, password, status, and access level.
Passwords
Passwords can be formed from the alphanumeric characters A through Z
(uppercase), a through z (lowercase), the numbers 0 through 9, and special
characters (such as @, %, and &). Passwords cannot contain control characters
(characters generated by holding down the Ctrl key). Passwords must have at least 6
characters, cannot exceed 14 characters, and must contain at least one alphabetic
character and at least one numeric character. Additionally, the password may not
include or consist solely of the username (login ID).
For security reasons, passwords are not echoed when adding, changing, or entering
them at login. If you forget your password, contact the system administrator, as only
he or she is able to change it. Users with Admin level privileges can change the
password for any user.
Security Levels
User account security levels define the privileges available to users at that level.
Choices are Read-Only, Read-Write, and Admin. The system administrator must
have Admin privileges in order to add, change, or delete user accounts, or to modify
system settings for the ICIM2 or IC IM2-XD and the modules in its domain.
Users who do not need to modify module alarm thresholds or controls should be
assigned Read-Only privileges. Users who need to regulate module information or
change CLLI codes need Read-Write privileges.
See Features Available via Remote User Interface (on page 319) for details regarding
features available through the remote interface and user access levels required to
view or edit data elements.
Login Thresholds
The login threshold defines the number of failed login attempts that must occur
before a maximum threshold trap is sent. Admin level users may adjust the login
threshold for the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. This threshold is the same for all users on a
particular ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. The default is 5 times, and the range is from 0 to 15.
Login failure threshold checking may be disabled by setting the threshold to 0. A
failed login attempt trap is sent for every failed login attempt.
User Lockout
Beginning with System Release 2.01, User Lockout may be enabled to prevent users
who exceed the maximum failed login attempts threshold from logging in for a
designated lockout interval (60 minutes by default). Locked-out users may try to log
in again after the user lockout period expires or after an administrator removes the
lockout. For further details, see User Lockout (on page 151).
Inactivity Timeout
The inactivity timeout is the number of minutes that a user account must be idle
following login before it is automatically logged out by the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. The
timeout value is the same number of minutes for all users on a particular ICIM2 or
ICIM2-XD. The default is 10 minutes, but this value may be set anywhere from 1 to
60 minutes by a user with Admin privileges. The inactivity timeout cannot be
disabled.
2 Click User Mgmt in the menu in the left pane. The User Management table
appears as shown below.
3 Click the New User button beneath the User Management table. The New User
Information screen appears as shown below.
4 Enter the User ID and Password in the fields provided, and then enter the
password again in the Confirm Password field.
Note: The password information you enter is not displayed.
5 Select the appropriate Security Level and Status from the drop-down menus.
6 Click the Save button to save your settings.
7 Log out of the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD.
8 Log back onto the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD using the new Admin account name and
password. For example:
newAdmin1
enterpassword1
9 Click User Mgmt in the menu in the left pane.
10 When the User Management Table appears, move the mouse to the delete button
next to the row with the default Admin account username Administrat0r.
3 Click the Delete button next to the row with the username for the account to
remove.
4 In the confirmation box, verify that you are deleting the account that you intend
to remove.
5 Verify that the account is not listed on the User Management Table.
Note: After an account is deleted, there is no more information concerning it except
what has already been logged in the event log file.
User Lockout
The User Lockout feature imposes a temporary lockout on ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD users
who reach the maximum number of failed login attempts. Users who are locked out
will not be able to log in to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD until the lockout interval expires,
even if they try to log in using the correct login information.
By default, User Lockout is enabled with a lockout interval of 60 minutes. Admin
users can select any lockout interval from 1 to 60 minutes, or can set the interval to 0
to disable User Lockout. All changes made to the lockout interval are recorded in the
event log.
Admin users have commands available for checking the lockout time remaining by
user and for unlocking a locked user account before the lockout interval expires.
Admin users and users with unknown user names are not subject to lockouts.
Lockout data is stored in volatile memory, so if the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD reboots, this
data is lost and all users are unlocked.
This section describes the following User Lockout actions available to Admin users:
View the current lockout interval
Specify a new lockout interval
View locked-out users
View lockout time remaining by user
Unlock a locked-out user
Admin users can perform all of these actions through CLI commands, and can view
the current lockout interval, specify a new interval, and view locked-out users
through the ICIM Web Interface.
The number following LOCKOUT is the current length of the lockout interval in
minutes. An interval of 0 means that user lockout is disabled.
Note: You can use info lockout instead of show lockout; the two commands
have identical functions.
3 Note the value in the Lockout Interval field. This number indicates the current
length of the lockout interval in minutes. A value of 0 means that User Lockout is
disabled.
3 When the System Settings table appears, click in the Lockout Interval field and
type the desired lockout value in the space provided.
2 Click User Mgmt in the menu in the left pane. The User Management table
appears as shown in the example below.
3 Note the value in the LOCKED column. Any users with YES in this column, such
as firstUser2 in the example above, are currently locked out.
Note: If no users are currently locked out, the word (none) will appear in the list.
The user account is now unlocked, and the user will be able to attempt to log in
again.
Alternative Methods
There are two other ways to unlock a user account that has been locked out:
Cycle power to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD off and then on again. Because lockout
information is stored in volatile memory, cycling power to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-
XD returns all users to default unlocked status.
In the Web Interface, use the Unlock User feature in the Edit User window under
User Management. For details, see To Change User Account Status in Working
with User Accounts (on page 144).
Note: Never change the User Lockout interval while a user is locked, as this may
result in an unexpected actual lockout interval for the user.

Introduction
The ICIM2 and ICIM2-XD maintain a log of significant events that occur in the
Prisma II system due to non-EMS user activity. The log can be viewed by Admin
level users through the CLI or ICIM Web Interface. It can also be downloaded to an
FTP server for offline viewing.
Certain types of events can be selected for exclusion from the log. Additionally,
changes made through the MIB, usually by the EMS, are not part of the event log.
The event log holds up to 5,000 events. If a new event is logged when the log is
already full, the oldest event is removed and the new event is added. To minimize
log wrapping, several traps are sent to indicate that the log is nearing capacity, and
one trap is sent to indicate that the log is full.
The EMS user or administrator must empty the log each time it nears capacity. To
empty the event log, the EMS user or administrator will typically first upload the log
file from the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD to an FTP server, and then clear the log file for new
events.
Event Category
This field records the category of the event. Possible values of this field will be:
Security
Administration
System
Hardware
Provision
Event Action ID
This field records the action ID of the event. Possible values are detailed later.
Event Description
This field contains text describing the event in more detail. For example, if a module
is inserted, the description would list the chassis and slot numbers for the insertion.
Note: As indicated in the example above, no user name is shown for module
insertion events.
As this example shows, the full view of the event log provides more detail, but may
be more difficult to read because the log entries typically do not fit on a single line.
To shorten the entries and help improve readability, abbreviated values are used in
the User Access Rights and Event Category columns. The User Access Rights column
will contain one of the following abbreviated values:
AD (Admin)
RW (ReadWrite)
RO (Read-Only)
Note: If the user name is blank (as in the Module Insert event), the User Access
Rights field will also be blank.
Similarly, the Event Category column will contain one of the following values:
SE (Security)
AD (Administration)
SY (System)
HW (Hardware)
PR (Provisioning)
The event log is displayed one page at a time, with up to 25 logs per page. To scroll
through any additional pages, use the Previous and Next links located above the
Event Log table.
Click OK to continue.
The example below turns off logging of hardware events, and then shows the filter
parameters settings.
CLI> icim eventlogfilter hardware off
SUCCESS!
CLI> icim show eventlogfilter
Event Log Settings:
Provisioning Events: on
Hardware Events: off
System Events: on
(a value of "on" means to log events of that category)
SUCCESS!
CLI>
Check the box beside each event category to be included in the log, and clear the box
beside each category to be excluded. When finished, click the Apply button to save
your changes, or click Cancel to abort.
A sample portion of the event log file as downloaded from the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD
to an FTP server is shown below.
In this example:
The date-time format is yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss, and seconds are shown
without leading zeros.
Event categories are abbreviated, with Security shown as SE and Provisioning
shown as P.

Introduction
Simple network management protocol (SNMP) is an ISO standard communication
protocol commonly used by network and element management systems to monitor
network devices for alarms and other significant conditions.
SNMP accesses information about network devices through management
information base (MIB) objects. MIBs are hierarchical tree-structured descriptions
used to define database elements. SNMP is used to manage individual data elements
and the values assigned to MIB objects.
SNMP addresses a single MIB object using a numeric string called an object
identifier (OID). The OID defines a branching path through the hierarchy to the
location of the object. In addition to the OID, a MIB object is known by its object
descriptor, a text string intended to be more meaningful to a human operator. The
OID and object descriptor are unique to each MIB object.
Also defined for each MIB object is the access that SNMP can afford to the object
data value. For example, if a MIB object has read-write access, SNMP can be used to
both get (retrieve) and set (define or change) the value of the object. If an object is
read-only, SNMP can be used to get the object value, but not to change it.
ICIM MIB
MIB objects for the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD fall into several categories. Information
includes the state of the ICIM in reference to network settings, FTP, download
control, and manufacturing data. Each of the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD object identifiers
appears below with a description and other pertinent information concerning the
element.
p2icimChassisID
The number that appears in the chassis ID switch on the front panel of the chassis in
which the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD is installed indicates the value for the chassis ID (see
figure below). Valid chassis ID values are 00 to 99 inclusive. However, the use of 00
as the chassis ID value is not recommended in some circumstances, as the following
caution explains.
CAUTION:
Setting the chassis ID to 00 is not recommended as it causes the entity MIB to violate
RFC-2737 by creating an invalid object identifier. This may affect operation with some
management systems that use the entity MIB. In particular, attempts to access the fans
(in virtual slot 0) in chassis 00 will fail if made via serial TNCS (or ROSA-EM) or LCI.

p2icimSelfTest
Use this object to display the results of the basic functional self-test that the ICIM2 or
ICIM2-XD performs at boot-up. If the self-test runs with no failures, performing a
get on this object returns the message “ICIM Self-Test Passed.” If any failures occur,
a get on this object returns the message "ICIM Self-Test failed - Error Code” followed
by a decimal representation of the hexadecimal code of the failure(s).
If the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD encounters more than one failure, the error code returned
is the sum of the individual error codes. For example:
If the Real Time Clock Battery failed the self-test, the error code would be
16777248 decimal or 1000020 hex.
If the Real Time Clock Battery and the Real Time Clock both failed the self-test,
the error code would be ((16 + 32) + 16777216 =) 16777264 decimal or ((10 + 20) +
1000000 =) 1000030 hex.

p2icimNotify
This object tracks the number of times that an ICIM or module MIB object is set
through the CLI or ICIM Web Interface. The value in this object is an integer that
starts at 1 when the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD boots up, and increments each time an ICIM
or module MIB object is set through the CLI or ICIM Web Interface.
If p2icimNotify reaches its maximum value of 2,147,483,647 (hexadecimal
7FFFFFFF), any further changes cause the value to return to 1 and increment again
from that point. Thus, once incremented, the value of p2icimNotify only returns to 0
if the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD is reset.

Trap Handling
The Prisma II Trap Handling Group (prismaIItrap) is a subset of ICIM MIB objects
that allows users to configure trap receiver properties. These objects also let users
review the history of traps generated by the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD.
The prismaIItrap object identifier (OID) is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.200. This is the
dot version of the full path that expands to:
iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).private(4).enterprise(1).scientificatlanta(1429).saTerr(1
).saTerrOptical(6).saTerrOpticalPrismaII(2).saPrismaIIrev2(2).saPrismaIIicim(13).Pris
maIItrap(200).
To Receive Traps
Complete the following steps to receive traps.
1 Set p2TrapRecvEnable to enabled (2).
2 Set the IP address, in the format 172.18.2.24, of the remote entity to receive traps.
3 Set p2TrapRecvTelcoAlarm to enabled (2).
Note: All trap settings are documented for completeness. Information contained in
this trap is expanded upon in the Enhanced trap. Where practical, we recommend
using the Enhanced trap as it is more useful. Enabling this trap and the Enhanced
trap together will cause two traps to be sent for each triggering event. For more
information, see Prisma II Traps (on page 226).

establishing the actual origin of fan tray and power supply alarms for
troubleshooting purposes.
The fan tray manages alarms for the fan tray as well as for the power supply
modules in slot 1 and slot 3. The ICIM2 with Release 1.00 firmware associates fan
tray, power supply 1, and power supply 3 alarms with a single logical chassis slot
location (slot 3). The NMS must then remap the alarms to physical chassis slot
locations in order to indicate the actual origin of the alarm.
In a chassis with an ICIM2 at Release 2.00 or later and a fan tray at Release 1.01 or
later firmware, these alarms are reported as originating from their respective
physical chassis slot locations. This makes it unnecessary for the NMS to remap fan
tray and power supply alarms to chassis slot locations.
However, due to the potential mix of 1.00 and 1.01 fan trays in the field, the NMS
must be told when to remap alarms to physical slot locations for a particular chassis.
The p2FantrayPSsplit element performs this function. It has three possible values:
Value Meaning
Yes (1) This module is a newer fan tray (devtype 5012) or power supply
(devtype 5013) with split data. Therefore, the data is only for the
particular module (fan tray or power supply) you are viewing. The
NMS does not need to perform slot remapping.
No (2) This module is an older fan tray-power supply combination
(devtype 5010) with unsplit data. Therefore, the data needs to be
separated into fan tray, power supply 1, and power supply 3. The
NMS needs to perform slot remapping.
Not Applicable (3) This module is neither a power supply nor a fan tray module.
The default value of 3 (not applicable) tells the NMS that the module in alarm is
neither the fan tray nor a power supply, making the issue moot. A value of 1 (Yes)
means that the alarms are split by module, so alarm remapping is not needed. A
value of 2 (No) means that the alarms are not split, so remapping is required.

The table below shows sample entries for each element of the Module Alarm table.
The elements themselves are described in this section.
p2almIndex
This object holds one of the indices into the alarm table. Indices include chassis and
slot, as well as p2almIndex per alarm type for the module, which form the unique
instance into the Module Alarm table.
Access: read-only
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.300.5.1.1
p2almLabel
This object holds a string of eight characters or less that describes an alarm
characteristic of a module type.
Access: read-only
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.300.5.1.2
p2almValue
This object holds the alarm value, which may be a Boolean or Non-Boolean value as
appropriate to the alarm type. The table below shows how the meanings of different
alarm values vary depending on their class or enumeration (Non-Boolean vs.
Boolean).
Class/Enumeration 0 1 2 3 4
Non-Boolean (p2almType 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 - see Major Minor OK Minor Major
table under palmType) low low high high
Boolean (p2almType 5 or 6) OK Fault na na na
Important: Certain alarm values can have very different meanings depending on the
type of alarm. For example, for Boolean alarm types (p2almType = 5 or 6),
p2almValue = 0 indicates that there is no fault (OK). However, for Non-Boolean
alarm types (p2almType = 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, or 8), p2almValue = 0 indicates a major low
alarm. See also p2almType below for more on alarm types.
Access: read-only
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.300.5.1.3
p2almType
This object holds the alarm type. The alarm type is a number from 1 to 8 that
identifies three key characteristics of the alarm:
Class - whether the alarm value is Boolean or Non-Boolean. This affects the way
that the alarm values are interpreted.
Impact - whether the alarm thresholds are fixed by the module or can be
changed by the user. A module alarm is controlled by the module. If a monitored
value violates an alarm threshold set by a module, the module may shut down.
User alarm thresholds may be configured by the user. However, these alarms
will not cause modules to shut down.
Threshold Implementation - whether the threshold for the alarm is an absolute
value, or is relative to one or more other control parameters.
The table below identifies the class, impact, and threshold implementation for each
possible value of p2almType. Alarm types with user-adjustable thresholds are
indicated with an asterisk (*) in the table and paragraphs below.
8 The Module alarm with complete inhibit. Same as type 7 except that the limits
are not user-adjustable. Unlike other module alarms it will not set anything to
the safe set when an alarm is triggered. The alarm thresholds are not user-
adjustable.
Important: The alarm type and alarm value are inseparably linked, in that the value
may only be understood with respect to the type of alarm. (See also p2almValue
above.)

p2almNominal
This object holds the alarm nominal value. To view the current value for a particular
module and element, see the Module Monitor table.
Access: read-only
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.300.5.1.5
p2almHysteresis
This object defines the hysteresis value for the alarm. The hysteresis value
determines how far from the alarm threshold a parameter must change before an
alarm condition will clear. The purpose of hysteresis is to prevent the rapid setting
and clearing of alarms that otherwise would occur when a parameter makes small
fluctuations about the alarm threshold value.
For example, assume that the Minor High limit for chassis temperature is set to 45°C,
and the hysteresis value for this alarm parameter is 1°C. When the chassis
temperature rises above 45°C, the Minor High alarm occurs. In order for the alarm to
clear, the temperature must fall below 44°C, which is the alarm threshold value of 45
minus the hysteresis value of 1.
Likewise, if the chassis temperature had a Minor Low alarm threshold of -20°C and a
hysteresis value of 1°C, a Minor Low alarm would occur if the temperature fell
below -20°C, but would not clear until the temperature rose above -19°C.

Access: read-only
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.2.2.13.300.5.1.15
Note: Alarm thresholds can only be adjusted for type 1, 2 and 7 alarms. The type of
alarm is shown in the p2almType field. The p2almLimitAdjust field will be set to
"enabled" if the limits can be adjusted, or to "disabled" if they cannot be adjusted.
The ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD treats all modules the same in that the alarm thresholds will
be shown as read-writable for all alarm types, whether they can be adjusted or not.
An error will result if the user attempts to change an alarm threshold with non-
adjustable limits.
Alarm Severity
All Prisma II XD Chassis alarms presently report to Major or Minor severity levels.

Prisma II Traps
This section describes trap destination configuration and provides details on trap
types, conditions causing traps, and trap logging.
About Traps
The Prisma II system can be configured to provide various alarm and warning
conditions, called traps, to an element management system or system monitor
application. Up to eight different traps can be enabled independently to provide
information on events occurring in a system:
IP Change
Module Insertion
Module Removal
Alarm Event
Download Complete
Self-Test
Reboot
Enhanced Alarm
These traps can be sent to up to ten different IP addresses, or "users." Trap filtering
can be configured independently for each user.
Each trap is accompanied by one or more bindings, which are parameters
representing the physical or logical objects associated with the trap.
The following table briefly describes each of the traps listed above and identifies its
associated bindings.
Note: All trap types (module insertion, alarm events, etc.) are reported through the
Enhanced Alarm trap. By default, only the Enhanced Alarm traps are enabled.
Both the Standard traps and the Enhanced trap are disabled by default. You enable
and configure the desired trap(s) using SNMP commands, as described in the
following sections. You can also enable and configure these traps using the ICIM
Web Interface, as described in the Prisma II Platform Remote User Interface Guide, part
number 4012441.
Note: Enable either the Standard traps or the Enhanced trap, but not both. Enabling
both traps will result in duplicate traps being sent for each triggering event.
As shown in the table, the traps can be filtered for each of the 10 trap receiving
addresses. It is important to note that if p2TrapRecvEnable is set to "disabled," no
enterprise specific traps will be sent to that IP address even if the individual filters
are enabled.
The recommended (and default) trap configuration is to only enable
p2TrapRecvTelcoAlarm traps. The other traps are also reported through this trap
type. Enabling p2TrapRecvTelcoAlarms along with other trap types will result in
duplicate traps for a single alarm event. The trap type filtering remains in place in
order to support legacy systems.
Note: All trap settings are documented for completeness only. Information
contained in other proprietary traps is expanded upon in the Enhanced traps. We do
not recommend using the older (legacy) traps, as the new Enhanced Trap is more
useful. Enabling other traps together with the Enhanced Trap will cause two traps to
be sent for each event. For more information, see Trap Recv Table (on page 188).
Trap Types
As indicated in the p2TrapRecvTable, there are several types of proprietary traps.
All proprietary traps are documented for completeness only. Information contained
in other traps is expanded upon in the Enhanced trap. We do not recommend using
older traps as the new Enhanced trap is more useful. Enabling other traps together
with the Enhanced trap will cause two traps to be sent for each of these events. For
more information, see Trap Recv Table (on page 188).
In general, traps have two sections: the header and the bindings. The headers are
essentially the same from one trap to another. The table shown below describes each
data element contained in the trap header. The first field, indicated by the label
“Specific:” is important as it identifies which trap has been received.
Trap Header
The table below explains and provides an example of each trap header label.
The number following the word Specific indicates the type of trap sent. The possible
values and meanings of this number are as follows:
Unit Meaning
2 Insert Module
3 Remove Module
4 Alarm (Major or Minor, Alarm or Clear)
5 IP Change Event
6 Download Complete
7 Reboot Command
8 SelfTest Failure
9 Telco Alarm
At least one binding follows the header. The Telco traps include 15 bindings carrying
information regarding the entity that caused the trap to be sent. For more
information on Enhanced traps, see Enhanced Trap Binding Information (on page
239).
Other proprietary traps send very basic data, such as the chassis and slot number of
an ICIM2, ICIM2-XD, or application module.
If an alarm is Minor, the module in alarm sends a trap to the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD
after the next polling interval. Minor alarm handling is integral to the polling
process, and does not disrupt the normal polling cycle.
If an alarm is Major, the module in alarm brings the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD
Attention line low to request immediate service. In response, the ICIM2 or
ICIM2-XD first identifies the module requesting attention, and then polls the
module to obtain the alarm information. After handling the Major alarm, the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD resets the polling process, so that it resumes at the beginning
of the cycle, rather than at the point in the cycle at which it was interrupted.
To configure alarm traps in the p2TrapRecvTable, select values for
p2TrapRecvMajorAlarm or p2TrapRecvMinorAlarm. If traps are to be sent when
monitored values exceed their Major Low or Major High threshold values, configure
p2TrapRecvMajorAlarm. If traps are to be sent when monitored values exceed their
Minor Low or Minor High threshold values, set values in p2TrapRecvMinorAlarm.
Note: A monitor value stated in a trap binding is a snapshot in time, and may not
indicate a value consistent with an alarm condition. If in doubt, verify the actual
monitor value using the appropriate equipment interfaces.
The user may configure alarm trap behavior by selecting one of four options:
Never (1), meaning that traps of this type should never be sent
Clear (2), meaning that traps should be sent only when alarms are cleared
Set (3), meaning that traps should be sent only when alarms are set
Always (4), meaning that traps should be sent when alarms are set or cleared
Note: Documentation on this trap is included for completeness. All information in
this trap is contained in and expanded upon in the Enhanced trap. We recommend
using the Enhanced trap instead of this trap, as the Enhanced trap is more useful.
Enabling this trap together with the Enhanced trap will cause two traps to be sent for
each triggering event.
Specific: 4 appears in the heading to indicate an Alarm trap. (Specific: 4 as a value
indicates a major alarm or clear, or a minor alarm or clear condition.) The table
below describes the bindings.
The example below shows the bindings for a broadcast RebootCommand Trap.
Chassis 99 and slot 99 indicate that the reboot command was broadcast to all
modules.

Trap Generation
Proprietary traps are generated as described above for edge triggered alarms or clear
alarms (meaning a change in state of an alarm), as well as for any of the following
events:
Changing the IP address of an ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD
Inserting or removing a module
Successful completion of a download
Reboot of an ICIM2, ICIM2-XD, or module
Failure of an ICIM2, ICIM2-XD, or module self-test
Additionally, the Enhanced traps are generated if an alarm condition exists in one of
the modules upon startup or module insertion.
Trap Logging
When an Enhanced trap is sent, a copy is also kept in the Trap Logging table of the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. Each trap has a unique sequence number which may be used as
the index into the Trap Logging table. All bindings captured in the Enhanced traps
are also logged, and may be accessed in the event of network failures between the
SNMP manager and the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. The log retains up to 1,000 most recent
Enhanced traps.
The figure below shows how the Trap Logging table might appear when displayed
in a MIB browser.
Note: At least one row in the p2TrapRecvTable needs to be configured and enabled,
with p2TrapRecvTelcoAlarm enabled (2) for logging of traps will occur
automatically. For details, see To Configure Trap Destination (on page 229).
In the heading of a trap, the type of trap is indicated after the first word Specific.
Values following the Specific stand for:
2 Insert Module
3 Remove Module
4 Alarm (Major or Minor, Alarm or Clear)
5 Ip Change Event
6 Download Complete (reserved for future use)
7 Reboot Command
8 SelfTest Failure
9 Enhanced Alarm
Important: The default and recommended configuration is to enable only the
Enhanced trap type. Enabling Enhanced alarm traps and other trap types at the same
time may result in duplicate traps being sent to the element management system.
These other trap types remain to allow backward compatibility with previously
deployed systems.

2 Next, moving to the Module Alarm table, we change the minor low limit from
18.4 to 24.9, as shown below.
3 Because the actual value (24.0095) of the +24 V rail converter B is less than the
Minor Low limit of 24.9, an Enhanced trap for a Minor alarm is sent. A copy of
the trap is kept in the Trap Logging table, as shown below.
4 Now, we change the minor low limit back to 18.4 in the Module Alarm table, as
shown below.
When we do this, an Enhanced trap for a Minor clear is generated, and a copy of
the trap is kept in the Trap Logging table.
5 Finally, returning to the Module Alarm table, we note that the alarm value has
changed from 1 (Minor Low) to 2 (OK).
System Behavior
ICIM as Proxy for Module Information
The user gains access to information about modules in the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD
domain through the ICIM via SNMP and the MIBs. A virtual database in the ICIM2
or ICIM2-XD keeps track of data supplied by each module. The ICIM periodically
refreshes this database to ensure that the information it provides is up-to-date.
In this way, all module information obtained via SNMP is proxied through the
ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD. Because the modules never interface directly with SNMP, this
proxy behavior differs from that of SNMP Proxy Agents, and the two methods
should not be confused with each other.
When do traps associated with module insertion, removal, and alarms occur?
If modules are in a state of alarm, traps are generated at module insertion, module
startup, chassis startup, or ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD startup. If p2TrapRecvTable is not
configured with IP addresses, rows enabled, and Enhanced traps enabled, no traps
are sent for alarms detected at startup.
If a module is inserted after a steady-state condition is reached, a trap is generated
when the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD recognizes the insertion event. This fact is recorded in
p2InsertModuleTable. Also, if the module is in a state of alarm, this will be indicated
with startup traps. For additional information, see System Behavior (on page 266).
Upon removal of a module, and once the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD detects the change, a
trap is generated. Module removal is detected by continued lack of response to
internal ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD polling of the module, so it may take several polling
cycles to discover that the module was removed. However, no traps will be sent to
clear the alarms.
After a module is removed, the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD keeps no further information on
the module except what appears in p2RemoveModuleTable.
After the modules are discovered by the ICIM2 or ICIM2-XD and initial alarms are
acknowledged by traps, subsequent alarm traps are edge-triggered. Thus, alarm
traps are generated upon module startup, and if there is a change in the state of an
alarm following initial discovery.
Tip: Enable the row, set the IP address, and enable Enhanced traps, or startup alarm
traps will not be sent or logged.
For additional information, see Prisma II Traps (on page 226), Trap Logging Table
(on page 193), and Enhanced Trap Binding Information (on page 239).

Maintenance
The following maintenance is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
Record data.
Maintenance Record
It may be helpful to establish a maintenance record or log for this equipment. You
may want to record laser power level, laser temperature readings, laser bias current,
or power supply voltages, as well as the filter change dates.
Large variations in any of the parameters above should be investigated prior to
failure.
Troubleshooting
This section provides general information on servicing and troubleshooting this
equipment. The troubleshooting information describes the most common alarms and
gives typical symptoms, causes, and items to check before contacting Customer
Service.
Chassis Troubleshooting
The main function of the chassis is to distribute power and establish communication
links for the application modules installed in the chassis. Most troubleshooting
involves the modules installed in the chassis, but in some instances, you will need to
troubleshoot the chassis itself.
The table below describes the most common problems and gives typical symptoms,
possible causes, and items to check before contacting Customer Service.
WARNING:
Avoid electric shock and damage to this product! Do not open the enclosure of
this product. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
ICIM indicator is off ICIM not installed or not fully Confirm that chassis is part of
seated an ICIM daisy chain (no need
for separate ICIM).
If not, check that the ICIM is
fully seated in back of chassis.
Alarm Troubleshooting
The Prisma II XD Platform generates certain alarms that are specific to the chassis, its
fan assembly, and its power supply components.

Additional Assistance
If you need additional assistance, telephone one of our Technical Service Centers or
your local sales subsidiary. The chapter Customer Support Information (on page
297) contains a list of telephone numbers.
Fan Ok Alarms
The Fan Ok alarms (Fan 1_Ok, Fan 2_Ok, Fan 3_Ok) indicate a problem with the
function of the three fans in the fan assembly. Each alarm triggers when its
corresponding fan is inoperative, whether due to failure of the fan itself or to a
disconnected or broken wiring harness.
Suggested Actions
1 Check for obstruction causing lack of rotation on fan in alarm. If present, rectify
condition.
2 If no obstruction, remove fan assembly and check for breaks in fan wiring or
loose connectors.
3 If all fan wiring is intact and one or more fans do not rotate, replace fan
assembly.
CAUTION:
For a chassis under power, field replacement of the fans, AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or DC-to-DC converter assemblies must be completed
in two minutes or less to prevent possible chassis overheating due to
temporary removal of the fan assembly.
4 If these steps do not clear the alarm, contact Customer Service for assistance.
ChasTemp Alarm
This alarm indicates a problem with fan temperature. It triggers when the chassis
internal temperature is outside the threshold levels.
The factory default range for ChasTemp is -40°C to 65°C. While these values can be
user-adjustable, they must be left at the default values. Failure to do so may result in
improper operation or alarming, or may lead to equipment damage.
Suggested Actions
1 Verify that the conditioned ambient airflow is within chassis temperature alarm
threshold set-points. If not, rectify the condition.
2 Look for and remove any air flow obstructions at the chassis air intake and
exhaust areas. Momentary fan assembly removal may be needed for this
inspection.
CAUTION:
For a chassis under power, field replacement of the fans, AC-to-DC bulk
power supply modules, or DC-to-DC converter assemblies must be completed
in two minutes or less to prevent possible chassis overheating due to
temporary removal of the fan assembly.
3 If these steps do not clear the alarm, contact Customer Service for assistance.
ConvAIn Alarm
This alarm indicates one or more of the following conditions:
Absence of AC input power to the AC-to-DC bulk power supply module in slot
A, if present
Absence of DC input power to the DC-to-DC converter module for power supply
slot A
Absence of DC-to-DC converter module for power supply slot A
Note: This alarm can be temporarily disabled for servicing by setting the AlmMuteA
control parameter to 1 (ON) via the CLI or ICIM Web Interface. See the Prisma II
Platform Remote User Interface Guide, part number 4012441 for details.
Suggested Actions
1 Check the chassis power cord and confirm that the alarming AC-to-DC bulk
power supply module is fully seated.
2 If the line voltage is feeding only the alarming power supply, check the line for
both proper voltage and polarity. If the line voltage and polarity are acceptable,
replace the power supply module.
3 If the line voltage is feeding more than one chassis with no indication of alarm on
any other power supply, replace the alarming power supply module.
4 If these steps do not clear the alarm, contact Customer Service for assistance.
ConvA+24 Alarm
This alarm indicates the status of the +24 VDC output voltage from the DC-to-DC
converter in slot A of the chassis. It triggers when this output voltage is outside the
threshold levels.
While the threshold values can be user-adjustable, they must be left at the default
values. Failure to do so may result in improper operation or alarming, or may lead to
equipment damage.
Suggested Actions
1 Access the DC-to-DC converter in alarm as described below, and confirm that it
is fully seated. If necessary, reseat the converter.
2 Check that the status LED of the converter in alarm is unlit. If the LED is lit,
replace the converter.
3 Confirm that the alarm is caused by the voltage exceeding or falling below
factory-set threshold values. If so, replace the converter.
4 If these steps do not clear the alarm, contact Customer Service for assistance.

Recommended Equipment
The following equipment is recommended to clean the ends of fiber-optic
connectors.
CLETOP or OPTIPOP ferrule cleaner (CLETOP Type A for SC, Type B for LC)
Compressed air (also called “canned air”)
Lint-free wipes moistened with optical-grade (99%) isopropyl alcohol
Bulkhead swabs for LC or SC type connectors (choose appropriate type)
Optical connector scope
Avoid personal injury! The laser light source on this equipment emits
invisible laser radiation. Avoid direct exposure to the laser light source.
Avoid personal injury! Viewing the laser output with optical instruments
(such as eye loupes, magnifiers, or microscopes) may pose an eye hazard.
WARNING:
Avoid damage to your eyes! Do not look into any optical connector while the
system is active. Even if the unit is off, there may still be hazardous optical
levels present.
Cleaning Connectors
Important:
All external jumper connectors must be cleaned before inserting them into the
optical module.
Before you begin, remove optical power from the module or ensure that optical
power has been removed.
Complete the following steps to clean fiber-optic connectors that will be connected to
the optical module.
1 Inspect the connector through an optical connector scope. If the connector is
damaged, e.g., scratched, burned, etc., replace the jumper.
2 If the connector is dirty but otherwise undamaged, clean the connector as
follows:
a Make several swipes across the face of the connector with the appropriate
ferrule cleaner. This will remove dust and some films.
b Listen for a slight "squeak" typically generated during this process, indicating
a clean connector.
c Inspect the connector again through the scope to confirm that it is clean.
3 If a second inspection indicates that further cleaning is needed:
a Use 99% isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free wipe to clean the connector.
b Use the appropriate ferrule cleaner again to remove any film left over from
the alcohol.
c Inspect the connector again through the scope and confirm that it is clean.
4 If necessary, repeat steps 3a-3c until the connector is clean.
Cleaning Bulkheads
Important:
Do not detach the bulkhead from the module front panel for cleaning under any
circumstances. There is little or no slack in the fiber attached to the bulkhead,
and any attempt to remove the bulkhead will risk damage to the fiber.
It is generally more difficult to clean bulkhead connectors and verify their
condition due to the inaccessibility of the fiber end face. For this reason, you
should only attempt to clean a bulkhead connector when a dirty connector is
indicated.
Avoid personal injury! The laser light source on this equipment emits
invisible laser radiation. Avoid direct exposure to the laser light source.
Avoid personal injury! Viewing the laser output with optical instruments
(such as eye loupes, magnifiers, or microscopes) may pose an eye hazard.
1 Insert a dry bulkhead swab into the bulkhead and rotate the swab several times.
2 Remove the swab and discard.
Important: Swabs may be used only once.
3 Check the bulkhead optical surface with a fiber connector scope to confirm that it
is clean. If further cleaning is needed:
a Moisten a new bulkhead swab using a lint-free wipe moistened with optical-
grade (99%) isopropyl alcohol.
b With the connector removed, fully insert the bulkhead swab into the
bulkhead and rotate the swab several times.
c Remove the swab and discard. Swabs may be used only once.
d Repeat steps 1 and 2 with a new dry bulkhead swab to remove any excess
alcohol or residue.
e Check with a fiber connector scope again to confirm that there is no dirt or
alcohol residue on the optical surface.
f If any alcohol residue remains, repeat steps 3d-3f.
4 Mate all connectors to bulkheads and proceed to Verifying Equipment
Operation below.
5 It is also recommended that all connectors be visually inspected after cleaning to
verify the connector is clean and undamaged.
Complete the following steps for each optical cable connection to be made and on
every module to be installed.
1 Clean the end of the fiber to be connected as described in Cleaning Optical
Connectors (on page 292).
2 Connect the optical cable to the module connector.
3 Route the cable to the appropriate destination.
4 Clean the remaining cable end, and then connect the cable to the mating module
connector.
Note: Remember to observe minimum bend radius and other accepted handling
practices when working with fiber-optic cables.
5 After cable installation is complete, return the module control settings to their
original states.

in-lb
inch-pound. A measure of torque defined by the application of one pound of force on a lever
at a point on the lever that is one inch from the pivot point.
IP
Internet protocol. A standard that was originally developed by the United States Department
of Defense to support the internetworking of dissimilar computers across a network. IP is
perhaps the most important of the protocols on which the Internet is based. It is the standard
that describes software that keeps track of the internetwork addresses for different nodes,
routes, and outgoing/incoming messages on a network. Some examples of IP applications
include email, chat, and Web browsers.
L

network and records the information in a management information base. The MIB
information includes device features, data throughput statistics, traffic overloads, and errors.
MSO
multiple system operator. A cable company that operates more than one cable system.
nm
nanometer. One billionth of a meter.
Nm
Newton meter. A measure of torque defined by the application of one Newton of force on a
lever at a point on the lever that is one meter from the pivot point. (1 Nm = 0.737561 ft-lb)
NMS
