cannot be set because it exceeds the port parameter range. For example, this condition is raised when APC
attempts to set the OPT-BST gain higher than 20 dBm (the card maximum setpoint) or to set the attenuation
on the express VOA lower than 0 dBm (its minimum setpoint).
A common cause of an amplifier trying to attain a value higher than the maximum setpoint or an attenuator
trying to attain a value lower than the minimum setpoint is the low input power.

SUMMARY STEPS
1. There are various root causes for the APC-OUT-OF-RANGE condition. To determine the correct root
cause, complete the network-level troubleshooting procedures and node level problems located in Node
Level (Intranode) Problems, on page 80 of Chapter, General Troubleshooting, on page 1.

APC-WRONG-GAIN
Default Severity: Not Alarmed (NA), Non-Service-Affecting (NSA)
Logical Object: AOTS
The APC-WRONG-GAIN condition is raised on the amplifier card (OMP-AMP-17-C), when the actual gain
of the card (17dB) does not match the expected gain calculated by APC. There is a margin of +1 or -1 dB
before the condition is raised.
The APC-WRONG-GAIN condition indicates a system issue and not the card problem.

The condition can be cleared by recovering the power at the input port:
