iCCU-Specific Menus

The iCCU tabs include menus for uplinking the iCCU to a computer and

displaying status information for the iCCU. Figure 19 shows the iCCU uplink

menu that is accessed by selecting the Uplink tab, and Figure 20 shows the iCCU

status menu that is accessed by selecting the Status tab.

iCCU Uplink Menu

The iCCU uplink menu, shown in Figure 19 below, uplinks the iCCU to a

computer which downloads a data set. The Uplink Mode has two options -

Modem, which is the default, and Direct. In Modem mode, the iCCU uplinks to a

satellite which uses the Phone # to dial up the computer. To use the Direct

mode, the iCCU must be hardware-configured to connect directly to the serial

port of a computer using a special cable.

Before beginning an uplink, verify that the current battery charge is above the

preset Uplink Threshold. To begin an uplink, choose the Uplink Mode, enter the

Phone # for the computer, and hit the Set Parameters button. Once the

software accepts the parameters, hit the Uplink NOW! button to send the most

recent data points for each device uplinked to the iCCU.
