UHP-1000 SATELLITE ROUTER
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL, V. 2.5
(SW VERSION 2.5.X)

In some router operation modes, certain modulator settings are missing. This is due to the fact that settings are
received from the network central station and are applied automatically.
Modulator frequencies are specified in KHz. You can recalculate them to satellite frequencies if you know BUC LO
frequency (See Figure 14).
Modulator control commands:
---------- Modulator parameters
modulator frequency 950000-1700000 - Central frequency (KHz)
Modulator central carrier frequency in kilohertz. The recommended maximum frequency should not
exceed 1550 MHz. Working with higher frequency is possible, but not guaranteed and should be
tested before use.
modulator symrate 1-34000 - Symbol rate (KSps)
Carrier symbol rate. Bit rate can be calculated based on the current FEC value. Modulator shows it in
its statistics data.
modulator fec uncoded|1/2|2/3|3/4|5/6|7/8 - FEC mode
Viterbi coder error correction mode in the modulator.
modulator mode s1|s2 - Modulator mode
Modulator transmission mode – DVB-S1 or DVB-S2. For proper functioning in DVB-S1 mode DVB1 or
DVB2 software should be loaded, for DVB-S2 mode DVB2 software should be loaded and unit mode
must be SCPC or Outroute.
ALWAYS SET FEC AFTER CHANGING THE MODE OF OPERATION CANNOT BE GUARANTEED.
Mode DVB-S.
---------- DVB-S modulator parameters
modulator fec uncoded|1/2|2/3|3/4|5/6|7/8 - FEC mode

Mode DVB-S2.

Three modes of operation are currently supported: CCM, ACM-Long, ACM-Short.
ССМ – basic mode that compatible with previous generations of UHP hardware, supports QPSK and 8PSk
modulations.
ACM-Long and ACM-Short – advanced mode of operation that compatible with new generation of UHP hardware
(SN > 3501) and supporting the following modulations: QPSK, 8PSK and 16APSK. Actual software release does not
support Adaptive Code and Modulation (ACM).
The key difference of ACM-long and ACM-short modes is length of DVB frame, which is 64800 and 16200 bit
respectively.
