Premier Mounts CDM-600 specifications Config TX Power, Output Power Mode = Manual MANUAL,AUPC

CDM-600 Satellite Modem	Revision 7
Front Panel Operation	MN/CDM600.IOM

Select each digit of the TX frequency to be edited using the [←] [→] arrow keys. Edit the value of the digit using the [↑] [↓] arrow keys. When editing is complete, press ENTER. Note that the range is from 52 to 88 MHz, and 104 to 176 MHz. The resolution is 100Hz.

For units manufacured after February 2005, and which display CDM-600(E)on the opening menu, the range of IF frequencies has been extended to 50 - 90 MHz, and 100 - 180 MHz.

IMPORTANT

SPECTRUM INVERT should normally be in the OFF position. When in the ON position, for all FEC types, except BPSK, the transmit spectrum is inverted (which is the same as reversing the direction of phase rotation in the modulator). In BPSK, the time-order of bits out of the FEC encoder is reversed, to make the modem compatible with certain other manufacturer’s modems.

CONFIG: TX: POWER

OUTPUT POWER: MODE = MANUAL (MANUAL,AUPC)

OUTPUT POWER LEVEL = –20.0 dBm

Select the parameter to edit using the [←] [→] arrow keys. Edit the output level mode, either MANUAL or AUPC, using the [↑] [↓] arrow keys. Select each digit of the TX Power Level using the [←] [→] arrow keys. Edit the value of the digit using the [↑] [↓] arrow keys. When editing is complete, press ENTER.

If AUPC mode is selected, the lower line changes:

(Note that EDMAC, or D&I++, or ESC++ framing must be enabled for AUPC to function.)

OUTPUT POWER: MODE = AUPC (MANUAL,AUPC)

TARGET-EbNo/RANGE ALARM/ACTION

Use the [←] [→] arrow keys to select either TARGET-EbNo/RANGEor ALARM ACTION, then press ENTER

If TARGET-EbNo/RANGEis selected, the following menu will be displayed:

MINIMUM EbNo OF REMOTE MODEM = 5.0dB

MAXIMUM PERMITTED POWER INCREASE = 9dB

Edit the target Eb/No of the remote modem. The default value is 3.0 dB, and upper limit is 9.9 dB. Edit the maximum permitted increase in power level when in AUPC mode. The default value is 1dB, and upper limit is 9 dB. The user should then press ENTER.
