6.3.1 CONFIG
The sub-branches available are:
ALL
Permits the user to completely configure the unit, being prompted, step
by step, to make choices, or edit data. This is highly recommended for
new users, as it will clearly lead the user through all the configuration
parameters.
MODE
Permits the user to select Frame Type and Data Format for TX and RX.
TX
(Transmit)
Permits the user to define, on a parameter-by-parameter basis, the TX
configuration of the unit. These menu sub-branches would be used if the
user wished to change, for example, just the TX Frequency.
RX
(Receive)
Permits the user to define, on a parameter-by-parameter basis, the RX
configuration of the unit. These menu sub-branches would be used if the
user wished to change, for example, just the RX data rate.
CLOCKS
Permits the user to select TX-Clocking, RX-Buffer/Clock, or External
Reference.
D&I
Permits the user to select Drop or Insert options.
EDMAC
Permits the user to select EDMAC options.
MISC
Permits the user to select, view, or change various other parameters.
REMOTE
(Remote Control)
Permits the user to define whether the unit is being controlled locally, or
remotely, and to configure the Remote Control parameters: baud rate,
I/O format, address.
MASK
Permits the user to activate or MASK an alarm condition.
IMPED
(Impedance)
Permits the user to select the impedance at the IF connectors,
either 50 or 75 Ω.
STATS
(Statistics)
Permits the user to enable and configure the logging of various statistics,
including Eb/No and AUPC parameters
IMPORTANT
The modem may be monitored over the remote control bus at any
time. When in Local mode, however, configuration parameters may
only be changed through the front panel. Conversely, when in
Remote mode, the unit may be monitored from the front panel, but
configuration parameters may only be changed via the remote
control bus.
