Note: The following descriptions will refer to the CDM-570/570L as either modulator or demodulator for simplicity and understanding.

Before enabling DPC, the operator should verify that a demodulator at another terminal is receiving from this modulator, and that there is a working communi- cations channel from that receiving station back to the modulator terminal (inband communications). Additionally, since DPC controls potentially the full power range of the modulator’s output power, it is recommended that the termi- nal be commissioned and calibrated before usage.

DPC Enabled

The DPC Enabled command (enter E) is a toggle that allows the DPC feature to be either Enabled or Disabled. The CDM-570/570L is shipped with the DPC Enabled menu item turned off (Disabled) to allow entrance link levels calibra- tion during terminal setup.
