Important Observe all warnings in the text or on equipment labels regarding high-voltage or high- temperature conditions. The following warnings and figures apply to most Fujitsu products. Plug-In Unit Warnings Many plug-in units are stamped with anti-electrostatic markings (see figures at left) and require special handling and storage. The following precautions should be strictly observed to avoid damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Fujitsu also recommends that operations and maintenance personnel keep records of all alarm and status indications and the steps taken to clear them. A sample of the type of document that can be used with the FLM 150 ADM is contained in Appendix A, Trouble Analysis Log.

Have all alarm conditions in the system cleared? If Yes: If No: Go to Step 12. Call Fujitsu at 1-800-USE-FTAC (1-800-873-3822). Compare the current alarms to those listed in the trouble log. List the time in the Step 12 Time Cleared column next to any conditions that have cleared, and add any additional alarm/status conditions to the list.
1.2.1 Interpreting Messages Autonomous messages are reported by the FLM 150 ADM to the craft terminal and/or the OSS computer display. They are embedded in the equipment firmware and have the REPT prefix. The REPT messages are automatically displayed when an event is triggered, provided the condition is not provisioned as NR (no report) or its message category is not currently inhibited.

1.3: Maintenance Philosophy FJTU-320-515-480 Maintenance Philosophy The FLM 150 ADM multiplexes a maximum of 84 DS1 or three DS3 electrical signals into a SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) OC-3 optical signal. During normal operation, the system should require no maintenance on the part of the technician.
AO buffer if there is no logon to the craft or OSS interfaces. With Release 10 and later for the FLM 150 ADM, all autonomous messages are stored in the AO buffer, regardless of the logon status of the craft and OSS interfaces.
• Only one failure exists for the indication. The local FLM 150 ADM displays the equipment number of any remote alarm source on a 7-segment indicator on the front panel of the MP1A unit. The local AW1A unit provides critical (CR), major (MJ), minor (MN), and abnormal (ABN) alarm indications on the front panel for both the local and the remote site.
1.6: Repairing Defective Units FJTU-320-515-480 Repairing Defective Units Fujitsu does not recommend field repair of defective units. Equipment failures should be corrected by replacing the defective unit with a working spare. Return defective units to a Fujitsu field service office.

Introduction This section lists the condition types shown by the LEDs on the plug-in units. Tables 2-1 through 2-19 show the LED indications for the FLM 150 ADM shelf (with the exception of LEDs relating to FASTLANE ™plug-in units). For simplicity, the LED colors caused by the lamp test function are not presented in the table.

Condition Code Responses 3.1.1 Summary Use this section to respond to conditions reported by the FLM 150 ADM system (with the exception of FASTLANE ™applications). When the condition code indicates an alarm event, this section provides trouble-clearing information. Transient and standing conditions are also indicated by condition codes and in some cases are associated with an alarm condition.
Page 44
3.1: Condition Code Responses FJTU-320-515-480 3.1.2 Condition Code Types There are three types of conditions that are reported by the FLM 150 ADM— alarm conditions, transient conditions, and standing conditions. These conditions are defined as follows: • Alarm conditions trigger autonomous messages to notify maintenance and operational personnel of failure or fault conditions that require immediate response.
