docsPnmCmDsOfdmRxMerFileEnable

Module: DOCS-PNM-MIB

OID (symbolic): DOCS-PNM-MIB::docsPnmCmDsOfdmRxMerFileEnable

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4491.2.1.27.1.2.5.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute causes the CM to begin the RxMer measurement for the purpose of creating a file of RxMer data. When the measurement is complete the FileEnable attribute is set internally to 'false' by the CM.

Interaction with other table rows:

- This object is subject to the rules specified by the 'docsPnmCmCtlStatus' object. Therefore this object returns 'inconsistentValue' if set to 'true' while the value of 'docsPnmCmCtlStatus' is any value other than 'ready'.

- Setting this value to 'true' will change the value of the 'docsPnmCmDsOfdmRxMerMeasStatus' to 'busy' while the test is in progress.

- This object returns 'inconsistentValue' if set to 'true' while the CM is in DOCSIS Light Sleep (DLS) mode or the CM is in battery-backup mode.

- A default value for 'docsPnmCmDsOfdmRxMerFileName' is defined; thus, this object may be set to 'true' without explicitly setting this this value.

- Setting this object to a value of 'false' instructs the CM to stop the measurement.

- This object returns 'true' if the CM is actively taking a measurement. Otherwise it returns 'false'.

What is docsPnmCmDsOfdmRxMerFileEnable?

Setting this 'true' starts the downstream RxMER-per-subcarrier measurement and file generation; the CM clears it back to 'false' automatically when the measurement completes. This is the primary trigger admins use to capture a per-subcarrier MER snapshot for spotting narrowband ingress or suck-outs in the downstream channel.
