V-SEC (Vario-Satellite Equipment Control)

V-SEC provides unidirectional communication between satellite receivers and peripheral components in a satellite receiving system and serves to control intelligent multiswitches with several inputs, coaxial relays or rotation systems.

V-SEC uses 8-bit data transfer by pulse width modulation of the 22 kHz carrier frequency. There is 8-bit data transfer from the test receiver to the peripheral equipment through the existing coaxial cable. The V-SEC control signals are assigned to the components by destination addresses. After output of the V-SEC data, standard signals of 14 V/18 V and 0/60 Hz/22 kHz are still available. Input of the code word is in hexadecimal code..
