9.2.1 Antenna and ODU Parameter Configuration
The VSAT is normally pre-configured to be used together with the SatLink 403x Transceiver. The CLI
command odu show will show the ODU configuration with the two parameters, ODU transmitter type
and ODU receiver type, both set to SatLink 403x.
It is possible to configure the VSAT to operate together with transmitters and receivers other than SatLink
403x. The valid ODU transmitters (BUC) are listed in Table 9 and the valid ODU receivers (LNB) are
listed in Table 11 (the list is also available using the CLI help command ? odu txtype). Choosing the
ODU transmitter to be SatLink 403x will automatically lock the ODU receiver type to SatLink 403x.
Please make sure that the correct ODU transmitter (BUC) type is selected according to the table below, as
the Return Link communication will not work otherwise.
Table 9: Overview of supported ODU transmitters (BUCs)
To configure use of an ODU transmitter (BUC) listed in the table above, please enter the CLI command
odu txtype <type> where type is the number from the first column in the table above.
Example:
# odu txtype 45
This selects the JRC NJT5017F transmitter. Use the command odu show to view the ODU configuration
parameters.
