Operation
CG-1220 DTR
4-9
Status frames contain signal for the front panel and M&C interface.
Spectrum frames contain data for the SPECTRAL DISPLAY.
Monopulse frames, either on time or late, contain signal and error vector
data for monopulse mode. Monopulse used is the number of frames
transmitted out via the M&C monopulse interface. The other ones that
are not needed are discarded. "Late monopulse" increments each time
monopulse data is requested by or due to be sent to the ACU but a new
reading is not yet available. This may increment regularly in a high-
performance ACU and a narrow digital filter in the DTR, or when the ACU
requests each transmission (RATE = -1). On-time monopulse frames are
those that arrive before they are needed.
Bad footers are when a frame header is intact but the footer (or
intervening data) has been corrupted.
Unknown frames are when frames are out of synchronization or a frame
header has been corrupted.
MESSAGE LOG displays the most recent events recorded in the system
message buffer. Pressing [PAGE] and [SHIFT]+[PAGE] or spinning the knob
scrolls the list; [PREV] exits.
DISPLAY VERSION displays the current firmware version and configuration
information for the DTR.
CPU TASKS displays current CPU tasks, including task number, name, shell
type and activity
TROUBLESHOOT is a diagnostic tool to provide online assistance on the
current faults.
