EASTAR UHP-1000 SERIES SATELLITE ROUTER

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL, V. 2.3

(SW VERSION 2.2.9)

when antenna is disoriented from the initial satellite. To prevent this, it’s recommended to

define the desired range manually.

2.10.4 Auto tracking signals during normal operations

When earth station antenna is equipped with auto tracking system it might be necessary to

use analog reference signal from the router during normal operations. This feature of

satellite router works in the background and provides analog signal that is proportional to

Eb/No level of the demodulator. The output voltage in this mode is in the range from 0V to

3.3V only in proportion to Eb/No demodulator and aspect ratio can be defined by the user.

demodulator voltage 0-10 - Pointing signal output to USB, dB/V (0-off)

The ratio of dB/V is defined by parameter of the command. If, for example, this parameter

is set as 5 dB/V then at 10 dB Eb/No signal will be represented as 2V. If you the ratio is set

as 1 dB/V, then the output voltage will change from 0V to 3.3V once demodulator is locked.

This mode is deactivated when ratio parameter set 0.

Current status of pointing mode is shown on the «show system» status report:

2.11 Operations

2.11.1 Modes of operations

UHP-1000 Routers support several modes of operations:

 SCPC –SCPC modem

 REMOTE –TDM/TDMA terminal

 HMESH –TDM/TDMA terminal with HALF MESH support*

 HUB –TDM/TDMA Hub*

 OUROUTE – additional Outroute for TDM/TDMA Hub*

 INROUTE – additional Inroute for TDM/TDMA Hub*

 FHUB – master station of FULL MESH network*

 FREM – slave station of FULL MESH network*

The modes of operations marked by (*) require special software activation key.

Detailed information about HUB, OUTROUTE, INROUTE and HMESH modes of operations is

available as a separate manual – ―EASTAR TDM/TDMA HUB‖ [RD.IOMHUB.EN2.3]. ―Full

Mesh EASTAR Networks‖ [RD.IOMFM.EN1.0] manual contains detailed description of FHUB

and FREM modes of operations.

2.11.2 Switching between modes of operations

Selecting the respective mode of operation is performed by the following command:

---------- Router control

This command has to be followed by saving the configuration and router reboot.
