dia-
Beam diameter in degrees (10) or in miles (10m) or in kilometers (10k);
eirp-
EIRP value in range of 0-100.
6.4 Interaction with Mobile Antenna Controller
Configuration of the interface between UHP router and the mobile antenna controller is centralized in a special
editor Advanced –> Network –> COTM/AMIP (See Figure 40).

Parameter
Description
Local source
This section defines the method to retrieve actual coordinates by UHP router:
Site setup-
UHP router uses coordinates defined in its Site Setup section;
Network-
UHP router retrieves actual coordinates from the controller of the mobile antenna using
OpenAMIP or SNMP protocols;
Console-
UHP router retrieves actual coordinates using serial console port.
TX control
This section defines management of UHP transmission:
Local-
By setting via its HTTP/telnet/NMS interfaces;
Network-
By commands from the antenna controller using OpenAMIP or SNMP protocols;
RXD pin-
By an electric relay circuit.
AMIP
This section configures OpenAMIP/SNMP protocols:
Enable-
Enables OpenAMIP protocol; When disabled UHP router uses SNMP protocol instead;
Peer IP-
IP-address of the mobile antenna controller;
TCP port-
TCP-port number of the mobile antenna controller;
VLAN-
VLAN number of the mobile antenna controller.
Beam switching
Automatic Beam Switching configuration:
Enable-
Activation of the Beam Switching;
Use AMIP-
Use OpenAMIP commands for switching between satellites;
Timeout-
Max time required by a mobile antenna to repoint to the requested satellite.
When SNMP protocol is used for communication between UHP router and the mobile antenna controller it
requires respective configuration and permissions Advanced –> IP protocols –> SNMP (See Figure 41).
