OMACS3000

On the left hand of the screen, above the control panel, is the status panel. The status panel contains four lines of information, three of which are always displayed. The first line announces whether a SmarTrack® model is available or not (No Model or Model Ready). The second line reports the tracking mode (Standby, Step Track, SmarTrack®, NORAD Track, or INTELSAT Track). The third line displays alarm when alarms are present. If any alarm is present, the alarm status is red and flashing, indicating an alarm condition has occurred which the operator has not evaluated yet. (See Figure 4.) The fourth line in the status box will appear when a Hand Held Unit is attached or when the PC is in Monitor Only mode. Control is maintained by the Hand Held Unit or another Java application, an ADU, or M&C port. If line four is displayed, it will report in yellow the status message Hand Held or Monitor Only. (See Figure 5.)

Figure 5 shows the Home Screen when a Hand Held Controller device has been connected to the antenna controller system. Whenever a Hand Held Controller device is directly connected to the antenna, the antenna controller, from the operators PC, displays are strictly monitoring displays. Notice that the Position / Jog screen and the Tracking screen buttons in the control panel are no longer available to the operator. All the information displayed on the screen is still valid and will reflect all actions that are exercised by the Hand Held Unit but the operator will not be able to make any modifications or position moves while the Hand Held Unit is connected. The Hand Held Unit has priority. Movement icons will still be displayed to the right of the Azimuth, Elevation, and Polarization value boxes to show when an axis is in motion.
