FUNCTION SELECT: FAULTS/ALARMS: RX INTERFACE
RX INTERFACE
---------------
BUFFER UNDERFLOW Buffer underflow alarm. Indicates that a buffer underflow has occurred.
BUFFER OVERFLOW Buffer overflow alarm. Indicates that a buffer overflow has occurred.
RX DATA/AIS Data or AIS. When data fault is selected in the Configuration Interface menu the fault
indicates a data stable condition. This indicates the data coming from the satellite is
all 1s or 0s (i.e., data is not transitioning). When AIS is selected, the Alarm indicates
the data is all 1s from the satellite. When None is selected in the Configuration
Interface menu, the RX Data/AIS Fault/Alarm is not activated. (Overhead Card only.)
Note: AIS is an alarm, not a switching fault.
FRAME BER
Frame BER fault. Indicates that the frame BER exceeds 1
-3
.
BACKWARD ALARM Backward alarms.
BUFFER CLK PLL Buffer clock phase-locked loop fault. Indicates the buffer clock PLL is not locked.
BUFFER CLK ACT Activity detector alarm of the selected interface receive clock. The interface will fall
back to the satellite clock when this fault is active.
DEMUX LOCK
DEMUX lock fault. Indicates that the DEMUX is not locked. (Overhead Card only.)
RX 2047 LOCK RX 2047 lock alarm. Indicates the RX 2047 data pattern is not locked.
(Overhead Card only.)
Note: This alarm is only active if RX 2047 is ON.
BUFFER FULL Buffer full alarm. Indicates the buffer is less than 10% or greater than 90% full.
RX INSERT Insert interface hardware fault. Typically indicates the insert interface PLL is not
locked. This fault is only available when D&I are selected for modem type.
RX AUDIO 1 CLIP
IDR RX audio for channel 1 is clipped. (Overhead Card only.)
RX AUDIO 2 CLIP
IDR RX audio for channel 2 is clipped. (Overhead Card only.)
