Unequipped Payload Mapping
If you choose Bulk Fill No Mapping (Unequipped) payload mapping,
the CTS 710 receiver expects to find the unequipped code in
byte C2. The received payload is ignored except for parity checks.
Checking Received Optical Power or Received Peak Voltage
To check the optical power or the peak voltage of the received
SONET signal:

NOTE. The CTS 710 may take several seconds to respond when a
signal is connected to the input.
If Receive Rate, on the RECEIVE SETTINGS page, is set to an
optical rate, the SIGNAL STATUS page displays the received optical
power. If Receive Rate is set to an electrical rate, the SIGNAL
STATUS page displays the received peak voltage.
The optical power of the received signal is displayed in dBm (see
Figure 3–40). The peak voltage of the received signal is displayed in
volts. The SIGNAL STATUS page does not display results for
tributary signals.
