F.2 CDM-840 Carrier ID Operation
Carrier ID operation requires that you first enable Carrier ID feature operation, and then create
a MetaCarrier Custom Message. All other parameters (center frequency, symbol rate, and the
CDM-840’s MAC address) are set automatically.
The CDM-840 provides several means for configuring Carrier ID operation via Remote Product
Control with a user-supplied PC:
• CDM-840 HTTP (Web Server) Interface using a compatible Web browser.
• Ethernet-based Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) using a Network
Management System (NMS) and Management Information Base (MIB) File Browser.
• Serial-based Remote Control Interface using a terminal emulation program or Windows
Command-line.
COMTECH EF DATA RECOMMENDS USE OF THE SERIAL-BASED REMOTE CONTROL
INTERFACE AND THE ETHERNET-BASED SNMP INTERFACE ONLY FOR ADVANCED
USERS. COMTECH EF DATA STRONGLY ENCOURAGES USE OF THE CDM-840 HTTP
INTERFACE FOR MONITOR AND CONTROL (M&C) OF THE CDM-840.
THE SERIAL AND HTTP INTERFACE FIGURES AS FEATURED THROUGHOUT THIS
CHAPTER ARE INTENDED FOR USER REFERENCE ONLY AND ARE SUBJECT TO
CHANGE. THE FIRMWARE INFORMATION (I.E., REVISION LETTERS, VERSION
NUMBERS, ETC.) AS DISPLAYED MAY DIFFER FROM YOUR SETUP.
