Step 2 Complete the "DLP-37 Verify System Software on the LCD" task.

Step 3 Complete the "DLP-38 Install the Alarm Interface Controller (AIC) Card" task, if necessary.

Step 4 Turn to the table of contents, list of procedures, or index to locate any other procedures that you need to perform for your site.


DLP-36 Install the TCC+ XC/XCVT/XC10G Cards

Although the installation procedure is the same for both TCC+ and XC/XCVT/XC10G (cross-connect) cards, you must install the TCC+ card and let it initialize before installing any cross-connect cards. The TCC+ card houses the ONS 15454 software. For a detailed explanation, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Reference Manual. Repeat this procedure to install redundant TCC+ and XC/XCVT/XC10G cards.

Purpose

This task installs the TCC+ and XC/XCVT/XC10G cards.

Tools/Equipment

TCC+ card

XC/XCVT/XC10G (cross-connect) cards

AIC card

Prerequisite Procedures

DLP-35 Measure Voltage

Required/As Needed

Redundant TCC+ cards and redundant cross-connect cards are required.

Onsite/Remote

Onsite



Note This is not the procedure to use when upgrading from XC to XCVT cards or from XCVT to XC10G cards. If you are performing an XC to XCVT upgrade, an XCVT to a XC10G upgrade, or a TCC to TCC+ upgrade, see "Upgrade Cards and Spans."



Step 1 Open the card ejectors.

Step 2 Slide the card along the guide rails into the correct slot (Slot 8 or 10 for the XC/XCVT/XC10G and Slot 7 or 11 for the TCC+).

Step 3 Close the ejectors.

Step 4 Verify the LED activity as described in Table 2-1.

Table 2-1 LED Activity during TCC+ and XC/XCVT/XC10G Card Installation

Card Type
LED Activity

TCC+

1. The red FAIL LED turns on and remains illuminated for 20 to 30 seconds.

2. The red FAIL LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds.

3. The red FAIL LED remains illuminated for 5 to 10 seconds.

4. All LEDs (including the CRIT, MAJ, MIN, REM, SYNC, and ACO LEDs) blink once and turn off for 5 to 10 seconds.

5. The ACT/STBY LED turns on. (On the TCC+ card, the ACT/STBY LED
may take several minutes to illuminate while the DCC processor boots.)

XC/XCVT/XC10G

1. The red LED turns on and remains illuminated for 20 to 30 seconds.

2. The red LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds.

3. The red LED remains illuminated for 5 to 10 seconds.

4. All LEDs blink once and turn on.

5. The ACT/STBY LED turns on.



Note If the FAIL LED is illuminated continuously on the TCC+ card, see the tip below about the TCC+ automatic upload.



Note If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDS turn off.



Note If the red FAIL LED does not illuminate, check the power.


Step 5 Verify that the ACT/STBY LED is the correct color for the card (green for active and amber for standby). The IP address for the node, the temperature of the ONS 15454, and the time of day will be displayed on the LCD. The default time and date is 12:00 AM, January 1, 1970.

Step 6 Repeat this task for each TCC+, XC, XCVT, or XC10G card you need to install.


Tip When a newly installed TCC+ card has a different version of the ONS 15454 software installed than the version running on the active TCC+, the newly-installed TCC+ card automatically copies the software version running on the active TCC+. You do not need to do anything in this situation. However, the loading TCC+ card will not boot up in the normal manner. When the card is first inserted, the red FAIL LED stays on for a short period. The FAIL LED then blinks normally and all LEDs go dark. The FAIL LED and the ACT/STBY LED flash alternately every 30 to 45 seconds as the new software loads onto the new TCC+ card. After loading the new software for approximately 30 minutes, the TCC+ card becomes the standby card and the amber LED is illuminated.
