SFC6400A/SFC1450A Synthesized Frequency Upconverter User Interfaces
TM106 – Rev. 1.1 4-7
PRIME SETUP:
PRIME #:
PRIORITY: {0 - 8}
Sets the switching priority of a Prime Unit. If more than
one unit fails at the same time, the higher priority unit will
be backed up. Also, if one unit is currently backed up
and a second unit with a higher priority fails, the first unit
will be unbacked and the second unit will be backed up
(but only if Backup Mode is Auto-Revertive, see Backup
Mode above). The priority is set as follows:
0 = No priority (the Switch will ignore the Upconverter). If
at any time a Prime’s priority is set to 0, the
Backup will purge any learned parameters of that
Prime.
1 = Highest priority.
8 = Lowest priority.
COMPENSATION: {- 5.0 - +5.0}
Offsets the gain of the Backup Unit to account for
variations in loss through the system. This allows the
user to ensure that the signal path of a particular Prime
Converter maintains the same output power when backed
up.
MONITOR:
BACKUP STATE: {NONE, PRIME1 - 8}
Reports the current Backup State of the Switch. If no
Prime is backed up, then the state is reported as
<NONE>. If a unit is currently backed up, then its
number is reported.
HOTSTBY STATE: {NONE, PRIME1 - 8}
Displays the number of the unit that is currently in Hot
Standby. Hot Standby is only active when the Switch
Mode is set to Auto (Revertive or Nonrevertive). In this
condition, the Prime Converter with the highest assigned
priority is put in Hot Standby.
PRIME #:
SUMMARY FAULT: {PASS, FAIL}
Reports the system fault status. This is the summary of
all the Major, Minor, and Common Alarms currently
present in all the individual Prime Converters.
LEARNED: {YES, NO}
Reports whether the Prime has been learned by the
Backup.
