The eighth and ninth characters, 0 8, set the channel number.
The last two keystrokes of the command are ! <Enter>.
Setting the secondary frequency
This command sets one of 17 channels A01 through A17 or B01 through B17
as the secondary frequency. A system with an A variant ODU will not accept
a B channel assignment command, and a B variant ODU will not accept A
variant channels.
The default secondary channel setting on factory shipped ODUs is channel
15. “A” variants will be shipped on A15. “B” variants will be shipped on B15.
The following example sets the secondary channel to B13.
@ S F 0 S B 0 1 3 ! <Enter>
The first three characters @ S F begins the command string for Set
Frequency.
The fourth character, 0, defines the unit number, which is always zero.
The fifth character, S, indicates that the secondary channel is being
programmed
The sixth character, B, indicates that a B variant ODU is being
provisioned.
The seventh character, 0, is has no function.
The eighth and ninth characters, 1 3, set the channel number.
The last two keystrokes of the command are ! <Enter>.
Channel center frequencies
Table 13 provide the channel center frequencies. Note that channels are
overlapping. Center frequency of each channel is 5 MHz from the next
channel. Occupied bandwidth is about 17 MHz and a 5 MHz guard band
between occupied spectrum is recommended. Systems on parallel paths
should use channels with center frequencies separated by 25 MHz. Using
opposite polarization and angular (azimuth) differences allows use of closer
spacing.
