Airbridge BTS CDMA Base Station Common Alarm Reference

1.1 Alarm Serial Number


This topic describes the alarm serial number. Alarm serial number is an integer ranging from 1 to 999999999. It is used cyclically to identify alarms. In a numbering cycle, an alarm serial number identifies only one alarm. The alarms of the same type but with different report sources or report time have different alarm serial numbers.

1.2 Alarm ID
This topic describes the alarm ID. Alarm ID is an integer ranging from 1 to 32000. An alarm ID identifies only one alarm. The alarms of the same type but with different report sources or report time have the same alarm IDs and handling procedures.

1.3 Alarm Type


This topic describes the alarm types: fault alarm and event alarm. Table 1-1 describes the alarm types. Table 1-1 Description of the alarm types Type Fault alarm Description The fault alarm indicates the status of the equipment. When an alarm is generated, the status is set to a value. When the alarm is cleared, the status is set to another value. The severity of the fault alarm is normally higher than that of the event alarm. All fault alarms must be cleared. The event alarm indicates that an accidental event occurs when the equipment is running. It indicates an instant status. Event alarms need not to be cleared and some event alarms are regularly resent.

Event alarm

1.4 Alarm Severity


This topic describes the alarm severities: critical, major, minor, and warning. Table 1-2 describes the alarm severities. Table 1-2 Description of the alarm severities Severity Critical Description The alarm of this severity affects the system services, and you must take immediate actions. If the equipment or resource cannot be used, you must restore it immediately. Even if the fault occurs during non-working time, you also need to take immediate actions.

1 Alarm Information

Severity Major

Description Alarm of this severity affects the quality of service (QoS) and you must take immediate actions. If the QoS of the equipment or resource decreases, you must restore the equipment or resource to recover its capability. You must take immediate actions during the working time. Alarm of this severity does not affect the QoS. To avoid the fault with higher severity, however, you need to take actions in proper time or observe the fault. Alarm of this severity indicates that errors may exist to affect the service. Based on different errors, you must take different actions to handle the errors.

Minor Warning

1.5 Event Type


This topic describes the event types: power system, environment system, signaling system, trunk system, hardware system, software system, running system, communication system, QoS, and processing error.

2.23 ALM-18143 Reception Power Too Low at Optical Module


Description
The ALM-18143 is reported when the CCPM/CECM/HCPM/HECM detects that the power of the signal received from the receiving port of the optical module is too low. The CCPM/CECM/HCPM/HECM can retrieve the information about the rate of the configured optical port. The information is saved in I2C. The CCPM/CECM/HCPM/HECM determines whether to report the alarm based on the flag bit of the low receiving power received from the optical port. In normal cases, the flag bit is 0. When the power of the optical port is too low, the flag bit is 1 and the CCPM/CECM reports the alarm. Through the alarm, you can check in time whether the optical fiber is damaged or the optical module is faulty.
