ANTENNA CONTROL SOFTWARE
· Use Modem Lock: selects whether or not to use external lock
signal from the modem. “Use Modem Lock” will only be activated
when the modem protocol is set as I/O Console.
· TX Mute: TX Mute is a transmit inhibit output from the ACU to dis
able /mute the modem transmit through a 5 V (HIGH) or 0 V (LOW)
current whenever the antenna is blocked, searching, or is mis-
pointed 0.5 degrees from peak satellite position. TX Mute will only
be activated when modem protocol is set as I/O console.
· Modem Lock: is the modem lock output from the modem. It pro
vides a logic input through a 5V (HIGH) or 0 V (LOW) current to the
ACU to identify when the system is on the correct satellite.
“Modem Lock” will only be activated when modem protocol is set
as I/O Console.
7. Antenna UI
This view shows a graphical representation of the current antenna position which
allows you to easily identify whether or not the antenna is aligned properly to the
target satellite or is in a blockage zone. In addition, this view shows the current
satellite that the antenna is pointed towards and the satellites that are located at a
180° arc on the horizon, according to the current position.
NOTE: Based on the satellite EIRP footprint and the size of the antenna,
you may not be able to track all the satellites visible in 180° arc.
