If the VOA Mode is Constant Attenuation, you can manually change the threshold. The value must be within the optical power range that is specified for the card. (See Appendix B, "Hardware Specifications.")
If VOA Mode is Constant Power, you cannot change the threshold manually because it is based on the Power setpoint (Optics Thresholds tab). To change the threshold, you must change the VOA Power Calib value. This adjusts the Power setpoint. The threshold is automatically set to a value that is 5 dB higher than the Power setpoint.
Numeric, double-click the paramenter, enter a value, and press Enter.
Power Degrade High (dBm)
Shows the power degrade high threshold. This power value applies to the corresponding port and is automatically calculated when ANS is run.
This threshold applies to a port that is associated to a VOA (OSC-VOA). In Constant Power mode, the port is always active and the threshold is automatically linked to the Power Setpoint (VOA Power Ref + VOA Power Calib). To change the threshold, change the Power Setpoint. The threshold will always be 2 dB higher than the Power Setpoint.

You can manually change the threshold. The value must be within the optical power range that is specified for the card. (See Appendix B, "Hardware Specifications.")
Numeric, double-click the paramenter, enter a value, and press Enter.
Power Degrade High (dBm)
Shows the power degrade high threshold. This power value applies to the corresponding port and is automatically calculated when ANS is run.
This threshold applies to a port associated to a VOA (OSC-VOA) always active in Constant Power mode.
The threshold is automatically linked to the Power Setpoint (VOA Power Ref + VOA Power Calib) provisioned: changing the setpoint will result in changing the threshold (always 3 dB higher).
This threshold does not apply to the 32DMX card.

This threshold applies to a port associated to a VOA (OSC-VOA) always active in Constant Power mode.
The threshold is automatically linked to the Power Setpoint (VOA Power Ref + VOA Power Calib) provisioned: changing the setpoint will result in changing the threshold (always 2 dB lower).
