  • Page 109: Appendix B Laser Safety Guidelines

    Laser Safety Guidelines Laser WARNING Safety Use of controls, adjustments, and procedures other than those specified in this document may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure. Optical fiber telecommunication systems use semiconductor laser transmitters that emit infrared light that is normally not visible to the human eye. Although a conventional laser produces a small beam of light, the power density is very high, and it can cause damage to your eyes.
  • Page 110: Precautions For Unenclosed Systems

    Appendix B Laser Safety Guidelines Ensure technicians have satisfactorily completed an approved training course before performing installation or maintenance. Ensure there are appropriate warning labels near the optical ports of the modules. Precautions During service, maintenance, or restoration, an optical fiber telecommunication system is considered unenclosed.

    Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips Software Communication Problems Problem The frame is powered up, but the module does not communicate with CCS Navigator or the web GUI interface. Solutions Ensure you have specified the proper module slot.  See your 6800+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about slot identification.
  • Page 112 Appendix C Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips Problem The IP address of the frame has been forgotten. Solution Follow this procedure: Remove the ETH6800+ module from the frame. Select DIP switch 2 on the ETH6800+ module and slide the tab to the forward position. This sets the ETH6800+ module to its default IP address of 192.168.100.250.
