Abstract: In an optical transmission device, firmware that operates within a CPU of a first LIU and firmware that operates within a CPU of a second LIU periodically measure a load status of a CPU via an OS, respectively. Switchover control of a master CPU is performed according to a load status of a CPU measured by the firmware of each LIU. For example, when a load status of the CPU of the second LIU is lower than that of the CPU of the first LIU, a master CPU that performs switchover control of a predetermined port is switched to a slave CPU in the first LIU, and a slave CPU related to the predetermined port is switched to a master CPU in the second LIU, thereby dynamically changing the setting.

Abstract: An optical transmission apparatus includes redundant line cards each having a plurality of ports, a hardware unit and a CPU. The hardware unit obtains failure information on redundant lines for each port. The CPU determines switching control of the redundant lines based on the failure information. Then, the hardware unit switches the redundant lines based on the switching control determined by the CPU, so as to transmit an SDH/SONET optical signal in a ring network. The CPU of one of the line cards is set as a master CPU on the corresponding line card to control switching of the redundant lines. Further, the CPU of the other line card is set as a slave CPU.

Abstract: An advantage of the invention is in providing a device a device capable of accurately determining a position to which a pellet has been fired and instantaneously sending points to a display unit. Namely, because the target surface is such that inside and outside of boundary lines are at different heights, in the event of an impact making contact with a boundary line, a pellet will always impact with and apply pressure to the inside part of the target for which the points are higher. A terminal of a circuit substrate corresponding to this higher points side then makes contact so as to provide excitation, and the points can be accurately displayed. The bull's eye target device of this invention is such that a target section is provided with a target surface section provided with a central section and a plurality of ring sections, and a circuit substrate provided so as to be spaced from the rear surface of the target surface section.
