Figure 3-9: Universal M&C Status Window

3.3.1 Universal M&C Status Window

The Universal M&C Software will initialize and open to the Status Window, the main monitoring display. See Figure 3-9. The Status Window shows the the current conditions (or state) of the Compact Outdoor SSPA. In addition, the status screen allow the user to alter the Mute condition of the carrier and adjust the on-board Attenuator for gain control.

Upon connection with a unit, the M&C application obtains and displays the unit ID, the amplifier’s model number and serial number. The SSPA module’s firmware version number is also displayed here for convenience.

The unit’s network address and serial COM or IP address are also listed, which can be helpful in optimizing serial communications.

3.3.1.1 Signal Indicators

Three rows of indicators show the connection status of the connected amplifier. Top-most is an indicator that displays a green square when Connected, or a red square when Disconnected. Immediately below are two indicators for the TX and RX paths. The third row displays the mute state (Carrier Enable). This is actually a toggle which allows the user to Enable or Mute the amplifier. See Figure 3-9, Item [1].
