Front Panel Operation MN/SDM300L3.IOM
4–17
RX-C QPSK 1/2
256.000 Kbps
RX-D QPSK 1/2
512.000 Kbps
RX-V QPSK 1/2
38.400 Kbps
Upon entry, the current transmitter rate is displayed with the flashing cursor on the first
character of the code rate on line 1. Line 2 displays the data rate. Press [←] or [→] to
make the selection. To select the currently defined variable data rate, select RX-V, and
press [ENTER] twice.
To change the rate using the variable rate selection, press [ENTER] when RX-V is
displayed. A flashing cursor is displayed on the first character of the coding type on line
1. Press [←] or [→] to move the flashing cursor, and [↑] or [↓] to increment or
decrement the digit at the flashing cursor. Press [ENTER] to execute the change.
Notes:
1. When the RX rate has been programmed, the transmitter is automatically turned
off to prevent swamping of other channels. To turn the transmitter on, use the
RX-IF Output function.
2. Code Rate 3/4 not compatible with a combination of a CSC Closed Modulator
Type and Sequential Encoder.
