Operation
Operation can be performed locally on the built-in front panel control unit or
remotely via the Ethernet – LAN or RS-485 interfaces. Operational
parameters such as setting the frequency, changing the channel spacing or
activating presets can be controlled. In addition, the current status
Information and indicators such as GO, ACTIVE, SQ, CARRIER or VSWR
can be received from the transmitter and displayed.
Maintenance
Maintenance status parameters can be read out over USB, Ethernet – LAN
or RS-485 interfaces, and the built-in front panel control unit. The
transmitter delivers the result of the continuous built-in test (CBIT) and the
event list, which saves all events with the time information of occurrence.
Maintenance activities can be performed and controlled via the built-in front
panel control unit and remotely via Ethernet – LAN or RS-485 interfaces.
The transmitter provides commands for switching over from main to standby
(and vice versa) and for performing a test transmission. In addition, the
device can be reset or the real time clock (RTC) can be initialized locally or
remotely.
Performance values
Performance values can be read out over the built- in front panel control
unit or over the Ethernet – LAN or RS-485 interfaces. Parameters such as
modulation depth, temperatures, voltages, power levels and VSWR can be
measured.
Configuration
Configuration of the transmitter can be performed with the Service and
Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200, which runs on a standard PC or laptop.
Connected via service PC, the radio provides easy and fast configuration of
the radio basic parameters such as IP address, PTT timeout, power audio-
levels and preset pages.
The configuration files can be saved and loaded to the transmitter. The
configuration process is very convenient and allows you to quickly configure
an entire rack. In case of service, the defective radio can be “cloned” and
the parameters loaded to a replacement radio.
Preset loading
Up to 200 preset pages can be loaded via USB, Ethernet – LAN or RS-485
interfaces.
Inventory
All hardware and software components can be read out on all
USB, Ethernet – LAN or RS-485 interfaces and are visible on the
built-in display.
Software update
The R&S DS 4200 software is delivered as a CD ROM and contains all
software components, which are automatically loaded to the radio modules
via the USB interface. The Service and Maintenance Tool R&S ZS 4200
provides a software download manager, crosschecks the hardware and
software and ensures a proper software download.
