Operation

Several user- or network-programmable objects control the Automated Recovery. In addition to the contents of the Preset Table, these objects include the Services Recovery Timeout, the Network Recovery Timeout, the Recovery Iteration Time, and the Local Control Re-enable Timeout. The first two timeouts control how long the unit will wait after loss of services or network control, respectively, before entering Automated Recovery. The Recovery Iteration Time sets the maximum time the unit will spend attempting recovery at each preset. The last is a special timeout for disaster recovery, such as loss of a satellite, where units whose local control was previously disabled by the network are re-enabled so that local users may implement more complex recovery plans.

Monitoring Most routine Unity 4600 operations can be performed over Wegener’s COMPELNetwork

and control Control System. Control is "broadcast" to individual units through a "ghost-PID" data component of the incoming transport stream. The Unity 4600 is considered disconnected from the network at any time this special stream is not being received.

In addition to the remote COMPEL network control, three methods are provided for "local" monitoring and control of the Unity 4600: a web browser interface (later release), a terminal interface (direct serial or via telnet over TCP/IP), and a front-panel interface.

Note: Local control may be limited by COMPEL command.

The remainder of this chapter details these local monitor and control interfaces.
