6.4 SETUP - INITIAL CONFIGURATION MENU
When delivered, or if the non-volatile memory should ever be cleared, the unit must be completely
configured using the SETUP, INITIAL CONFIG option. This takes the operator through all the sections of the
CHANGE procedure described below to ensure all parameters are set. Only when 'SETUP, INITIAL-CONFIG'
has been performed once can STATUS be selected from the main menu. This ensures operation is not
selected until all critical parameters are specified.
Other options on the SETUP menu are:
CHECK: Which allow the setup to be checked, and looks for unusual combinations of
configuration parameters (eg IBS with rate
FEC coding, multiple scramblers
selected). Check does not prevent operation with any configuration, it is simply a
convenience for the operator if there are configuration difficulties. The Setup
Check takes several seconds to run and displays a message when the process
is complete.
MEMORIES: STORE, RECALL, and ERASE which allows access to the configuration memories
of the Modem. The current configuration can be stored, another recalled, or an
old stored configuration deleted. This provides a fast method of switching
between multiple configurations when required.
6.5 CHANGE MENU
It is under the Change menu that individual parameters may be varied after an initial SETUP, INITIAL-
CONFIG has been performed. If the unit is operating under Remote M&C, the options on the change
screen are limited to only the remote M&C configuration & the time/date:
Normal Change Screen (local control):
(Option 7: BUC/LNB only on P310 L-Band modems).
Change Screen (Remote M&C):
Each of these options will be described in the following sections:
