Overview of This Chapter

Module Description

This chapter provides the following information: Functional description Hardware features Required components to install the module Installing the module Removing the module

Functional Description
The Alarm module provides two connectors that allow for connections with external facility sensor inputs (doors, temperature, and so on), chassis alarm outputs (visible and audible), external device controls (cooling, heating, doors, and so on), and audible alarm cutoff controls (see Figure 2-1). In addition, the CPUn module generates trap messages that reflect state changes of the Alarm modules sensor inputs, control outputs, and alarm cutoff control. The Alarm module is functionally identical to the PSAX 4500 Alarm module (model 45N79) for the PSAX 4500 system, but the module is designed to be mounted only in the front panel (slot 14) of the PSAX 1250, PSAX 2300, or PSAX 4500 chassis. Like all of the other PSAX modules, the Alarm module is monitored and controlled through the console or EMS-PSAX.

Functional Description

Generating Central Office Alarms

COs and remote switch rooms have alarm panels with bells and lights that report on the status of the equipment in the facility. The Alarm module provides an interface with these alarm panels by generating alarms that indicate the chassis has failed in some fashion. Alarms are generated from several sources from within the chassis and reported to the CPUn module. Upon receipt of an alarm, the CPUn module sends a status message to the Alarm module, which generates the appropriate alarm, depending on the severity of the alarm (see Alarm Outputs on page 2-3). The module then alerts the technician of the problem through the alarm panels and sends a trap message to the NOC (see PacketStar PSAX Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Trap Reference Guide). Figure 2-2 provides an example of a sequence of events that would cause the Alarm module to generate an alarm: 1. The Stratum 34 module fails and a minor alarm message is sent to the Alarm module. 2. The Alarm module MINOR alarm LED and CO Minor alarm lamp light, and the Minor alarm bell rings. 3. The technician locates the malfunctioning system and presses the modules ACO switch or remote CO ACO device to silence the audible alarm. 4. The technician replaces the Stratum 34 module and resets the audible alarm by pressing the module ACO switch or the CO ACO device.

Functional Description

Alarm Outputs
Alarm Severity Levels The Alarm module provides three severity levels of alarmsCritical, Major, and Minoras reported by the following devices: LEDs on the module faceplate Relay contact closures that activate external audible and visible alarms in the CO or NOC The Alarm module provides three severity levels of alarmsCritical, Major, and Minoras reported by the LEDs on the module faceplate and through relay contact closures to activate external audible and visible devices in the CO or NOC. Visible alarms assist in identifying and locating the particular chassis that is in an alarm condition by activating the equipment bay alarm lights and chassis alarm indicators. Audible alarms also occur when an alarm condition exists in the CO or switch room. Alarms reported at each of the three severity levelsCritical, Major, and Minorare interdependent. If a higher severity alarm condition occurs (such as Criticalduring the presence of a lower severity alarm (such as Minor), the Critical alarms (LEDs, visible, and audible) are activated and the Minor alarms are temporarily deactivated. Once the condition causing the higher severity alarm is cleared, the Critical alarms are deactivated, or cleared, and the Minor alarms are reactivated (if applicable).

Output Generation Criteria

The generated alarms described in Table 2-1 occur under the following conditions:

Table 2-1. Module Alarm Generation Criteria

This Alarm occurs Under the following conditions

CRITICAL

Loss of input power to the chassisall module LEDs do not illuminate but a Critical alarm is generated when the alarm relay becomes unpowered and causes the relay contacts to change position Failure of both CPUn modules Loss or Failure of both Stratum 34 modules Loss of both BITS clocks Loss of both Composite clocks Loss of both primary and secondary I/O timing references (if provisioned) Failure of one -48 V dc Power Supply module (including fan) Loss of one BITS or Composite clock timing reference source Failure of one Stratum 34 module in a redundant configuration Failure of one CPUn module in a redundant configuration Failure of one configured module Loss of signal or frame from a primary or secondary timing source when line timing is configured on the Stratum 34 module

Note:

Output contact closures are not supported for a non-redundant Stratum 34 module configuration as this results in a permanent Minor alarm.

Alarm Relay Operation

The activation of the external alarms in the CO is controlled through six relays (three for visible alarms and three for audible alarms) with Form 1-C contacts (see Figure 2-3). The contactsnormally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and common (COM)are accessible through the ALARM connector.

Functional Description

The Critical alarm relays are normally energized when no alarms are reported. When a Critical alarm is reported or power fails, the relays are de-energized, causing contacts to change positions and in turn causing the CO alarms to be activated.

Audible Alarm Cutoff (ACO)

The alarm cutoff (ACO) function provides a method of silencing the audible alarms caused by an alarm condition being reported by the chassis; it has no effect on the visible alarms activated by the module. The alarm cutoff is controlled through the ACO switch on the module and from a remote ACO device (connected through the ALARM connector as shown in Figure 2-3). A remote ACO device could be a switch, relay contacts, or software command.

This change in state (on to off, off to on) is also shown in the Audible Alarm Status panel of the console Alarm Configuration window.

Monitoring and Reporting on External Events

A CO, remote switch room, or hut contains a number of sensors that monitor environmental conditions, power availability, moisture, and so on. The Alarm module has 15 input sensors that monitor the activity or state change of these external sensors (through relay contact open or close conditions), and report the status of them to the NOC through trap messages and the Alarm Module Configuration window. An example of a remote sensor would be a door sensor that indicates whether the door is open or closed as shown in Figure 2-5.

Chapter 2 Module Description

Functional Description

In situations where a remote sensor input to the Alarm module indicates a condition that requires external intervention, such as when the temperature in the CO exceeds a predefined limit and supplemental air conditioning is required, the Alarm module provides four relays that can be connected to supplemental devices to allow the NOC operator to activate them by sending activation commands by way of the Alarm module.

Control Outputs
The Alarm module can control up to four remotely controlled devices, such as air conditioning, heating, lighting, and so on, through four relays. The relays are controlled through the Control Outputs panel on the Alarm Module Configuration window. The Control Output relays have Form 1-C contacts (normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and common (COM)) that are accessible through the STATUS/CONTROL connector (see Figure 2-6). The contact configuration allows flexibility in connecting the module to remotely controlled devices. Control Output relays 1, 2, and 3 are normally in an off state (COM and NC contacts closed) when no command is sent. They are energized (changed from a normal off state to an on state) only when a control command is sent. Control Output relay 4 is normally energized (COM and NO contacts closed) when no command is sent. When a control command is sent, the relay is not energized causing the COM and NC contacts to close and in turn causing the external device to be activated or deactivated.

A dry contact is a relay contact that does not cause a spark that damages the contacts when they open and close. This is usually done by placing a resistive component, like another relay, between the relay contacts and the voltage source.

Installing the Module

Perform the following procedure to install the Alarm module (model 20N79). Read the PacketStarPSAX Multiservice Media Gateway Safety Guidelines, which accompanies this product, before proceeding. ! CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the Alarm module (model 20N79) and PSAX 4500 Alarm module (model 45N79) in the same PSAX 4500 chassis. ! WARNING: When inserting modules into the chassis, slide them gently, not forcefully. Excessive force may cause the modules to be seated improperly in the chassis, and result in possible damage to the module or the chassis. Install or remove modules one at a time. Doing this aids in preventing the PSAX system from indicating any erroneous failure messages, and allows the PSAX system time to reinitialize and display the accurate configuration of the module that is inserted.

Begin

1 Remove the module from its box and ESD packaging only when you are ready to install it. Be sure to save the box and the ESD packaging to ship the module in the future if needed. 2 Open the ejector handle at the top of the module faceplate, and slide the module into the appropriate slot: Slot 11 of the 19-inch PSAX 1250 system Slot 14 of the 23-inch PSAX 1250 system
