Table 3.3: Command Directory for U4600 Terminal Commands

SET parameter value

SET TO destination [time]

SET FROM source

parameter: One of format, feed, freq [for “carrier freq”], rate [for “data rate”], FEC, tag [for “tag site”], prog [for “program”], margin [for “Eb/No margin warning zone”], aud1, or aud2 [for “descriptors assigned to audio ports 1 and 2”]. See PERM and ADDE commands for definitions and limits.

value: Value of the parameter as in any settings command ( PERM, TEMP, ADDS, etc.)

destination: PERM, TEMP, number or label of a Preset table entry.

time: Length of insert in either HH:MM:SS format (valid range is 0:00:00 to 18:00:00, leading zeros OK to omit on hours) OR in number of seconds. (A one-hourTEMP could have a parameters: of 1:00:00 or 3600.)

source: PERM, CURR, number or label of a Preset table entry.

SET sets the value of individual parameters in a ‘scratch pad’ settings group. SET TO will store the scratch pad settings to a search table entry or to the permanent or temporary settings (requires an insert time as a second parameter). SET FROM loads the scratch pad settings from a search table entry or from the current or permanent settings.

SETAUDIO port route [program] [atten]

port:

Value of 1 to 6 indicating an audio port

 

 

route:

S - Stereo (Left and Right components routed as connected at original MPEG encoder)

 

1 - Original Left component to both L and R outputs

 

2 - Original Right component to both L and R outputs

 

M - Sum of Left and Right components to both L and R outputs

 

R - Reverse of “Stereo” above (if allowed by hardware)

 

 

program:

Can be a three character name or an ‘*’. If the 3-character name is specified, the unit will

 

route the audio PES stream with the specified name to the port. If ‘‘*’ is specified, the unit

 

will default to the first audio program in the PMT that is not routed to another port.

 

 

atten:

Must be a numeric value for attenuation in dB. Legal values are given in Table 1.1 on

 

page 3. This programs the net audio attenuation, where ‘0’ gives 0dB attenuation

 

(maximum level). If field omitted, attenuation remains unchanged on that audio port.

The audio PES stream, with the language descriptor program, is decompressed in the port audio port, and then its components are routed to the Left and Right outputs according to route. That ports attenuation is changed to atten, if supplied.

SETLABEL label

label: Unit label. Field entry is truncated at 10 characters.

Sets Unit Label displayed on IRD home LCD screen (and Terminal Welcome Banners), if supported in this IRD.
