• Specify the method of connecting to the I/O-62, for example:
splConfig.Io62[0].sExtPanel = "DIRECT"
The options are:
Connection Type softplane Descriptor
Direct connect to I/O-62 via 62 pin connector DIRECT
I/O-62 Connector Panel (used for RVP8 and RCP8) IO62CP
WSR88D connector panel, RVP8 portion RVP88D
WSR88D connector panel, RCP8 portion RCP88D
• The assignments for each connector and each pin are then made.
For convenience, these are usually grouped together by connector.
For example if, Pin 1 of connector J1 on the I/O-62 connector panel is assigned to be the
LSB of the input azimuth angle, then:
# TTL/CMOS on J1
#
splConfig.Io62[0].Opt.Cp.J1.pin01 = "sPedAZ[0]"
...
• The notation "" indicates that no assignment is made.
# BNC testpoint
monitors#splConfig.Io62[0].Opt.Cp.J13_BNC = ""
In the example above, the pin name is J13_BNC.
• Put a ~ in front of a logic variable to invert the variable.
splConfig.Io62[0].Opt.Cp.J1.pin03 = "~sPedAZ[2]"
Check the /usr/sigmet/config_template/init directory for other examples of
softplane configurations.

Testing, Backup, and Calibration
After software installation and before calibration, check system performance and check for
installation errors.
If DSP calibrations are
o, radar data may be unavailable.
