Front Panel Operation MN/CDM600.IOM
6–27
CONFIG: REMOTE CONTROL: CHAR FORMAT
Edit the I/O character format using the [] [] arrow keys. The options are:
N81 No parity 8 Data bits 1 Stop bit
E72 Even parity 7 Data bits 2 Stop bits
O72 Odd parity 7 Data bits 2 Stop bits
6.3.1.10 CONFIG: MASK
These sub-menus permit the user to selectively mask, or make active, various alarms and
traffic conditions that are monitored in the unit.
Use the [] [] arrow keys to select the parameter to edit, then press ENTER.
One of the following sub-menus will be displayed:
CONFIG: MASK: AIS
Use the [] [] arrow keys to select the parameter to edit: Select either ACTIVE or
MASKED, using the [] [] arrow keys, then press ENTER.
If TX-TERR-AIS is set to ACTIVE, a fault will be generated whenever the
modulator senses that the ‘all ones’ condition is present in the terrestrial data.
If RX-SAT-AIS is set to ACTIVE, a fault will be generated whenever the
demodulator senses that the ‘all ones’ condition is present in the receive data.
If an alarm is MASKED, no alarm will be generated.

PARITY:DATA-BITS:STOP-BITS = N81
