Abstract

A system and method for controlling optical receiver operation in response to a received optic signal power level that includes providing an optic signal receiver having operation determined by one or more system settings. During operation, the optic signal is received and converted to an electrical signal. The electrical signal is evaluated to determine a power level of the electrical signal. Responsive to the power level of the electrical signal exceeding a first predetermined threshold, adjusting a first system setting and responsive to the power level of the received electrical signal decreasing below a second predetermined threshold, adjusting the first system setting. Then, responsive to the power level of the received electrical signal exceeding a third predetermined threshold, adjusting a second system setting and responsive to the power level of the received electrical signal decreasing below a fourth predetermined threshold, adjusting the second system setting.
