Table 6: Transmit status (TxCode) messages and corrective actions
5 | The transmitter is not locked to | No action is necessary if this condition occurs from time to time and quickly |
| the network timing | resolves itself. If this issue persists, it is likely due to a |
|
| issue. The condition may also be due to Indoor Transmit Unit failure; in rare |
|
| cases, the Transmit unit may fail and may have to be replaced. |
|
|
|
6 | The transmitter is not available | Check your receive signal. This condition occurs when the Indoor Receive Unit is |
| because the receiver is not | not receiving a good signal. The receiver must be locked to the correct network |
| detecting a signal or is not | in order for the transmitter to operate. If the receiver is not locked (no signal) or is |
| locked to the correct | locked to the wrong network, the transmitter is unable to transmit data. Please |
| network | verify that you have a good signal strength by going to the Receive Statistics |
|
| page. This could also be caused by inclement weather. |
|
|
|
7 | The transmitter is not available | This condition occurs when the transmitter is disabled for safety reasons. If this |
| because the satellite receiver | happens during installation or commissioning, the installer will close the Antenna |

8 | The transmitter is available | This is the normal operational state and indicates that the transmitter is ready to |
|
| transmit data. |

9 | The transmitter is adjusting for | This condition typically occurs when the DW4020 is first commissioned or the |
| optimal network timing | first time it is used for data traffic. This must occur before the Indoor Transmit |
|
| Unit is able to transmit successfully. Typically, this process usually takes less |
|
| than a minute. |
|
|
|
10 | The transmitter is unable to | This condition indicates that the unit has stopped attempting to transmit user |
| communicate with the Network | data because there were a number of failures in sending data to the NOC over |
| Operations Center | the satellite link. This could be the result of weather conditions causing lost |
|
| packets or return channel equipment failures in the NOC. |
|
|
|
11 | The transmitter is not available | This condition indicates that the installed software version is not recent enough |
| because the receiver software | to operate on the network. New software will be required from time to time due to |

|
| efficiency and fix any known problems.The system will automatically update the |
|
| software version to ensure that you can enjoy uninterrupted operation. If you do |
|
| not use the DW4020 for a long period of time and miss the updates, you may |
|
| need to contact Customer Care. |

13 | The transmitter is unable to | Ranging is the process that adjusts the satellite transmitter timing and |
| range because it cannot | power. The satellite transmitter conducts ranging as needed to ensure |
| communicate with the | that it can communicate successfully with the Network Operations |
| Network Operations Center | Center.This condition can indicate any of the following: |
|
| • The NOC is not receiving ranging information from the transmitter. This may |
|
| indicate a transmit problem at the NOC. This should get cleared in a few |
|
| minutes. |
|
| • The transmitter is unable to achieve enough transmit power to send ranging |
|
| information to the NOC. Make sure that the power supply is correct. The power |
|
| supply should be Part |
|
| • The transmitter is sending incorrect timing data because the wrong zip code or |
|
| latitude/longitude information was entered during installation. |
|
| • The outdoor transmitter unit |
|
| properly or is not properly connected to the ITU. Please ensure that the |
|
| transmit cable is securely fastened to the Transmit Unit. |
