ODU Communication
Failure
Check that cable to
ODU is connected
and that the VSAT
is configured for the
correct ODU (type
CLI command odu
show)
The VSAT is not able to establish DiSEqC
communication with the ODU. Possible
causes may be:
- Cable to ODU not connected
- IDU not configured for correct ODU
- The ODU is defect and must be
repaired
The VSAT will restart automatically.
ODU Temperature
High Warning
Check outside
temperature. Check
TX cable
connecting IDU to
ODU.
The temperature in the ODU has become
too high. If this happens several times
without extreme weather conditions please
check that there is no problem with the
cable connecting the IDU and ODU.
Please check if there are errors on the
DiSEqC communication between the IDU
and ODU by using CLI command odu
show –diseqc. If DiSEqC errors are
reported, the likely source of the problem
is a bad TX cable connecting the IDU to
the ODU, or poor connection of the cable
to the connectors. Please always ensure
that there is a good connection of the
shield of the cable (GND) to connectors in
both ends of the cable.

The VSAT might stop transmitting (if the
Forward Link is reacquired).
Restart VSAT. If
the failure occurs
again the ODU
must be sent for
repair.
The ODU has powered itself down – most
likely because it has detected a failure. If
this happens more than once the ODU
must be sent for repair.
