Product Manual, Rev. 1 43
5.4 Control and Communication
The Tra
nsmitter can be controlled and monitored locally (on-site), or remotely from a
Network Management System (NMS).
5.4.1 Control and Communication Interfaces
There are two interfaces port provided for control and co
mmunication:
• Ethernet Port A or B (RJ-45) – used for local control with a laptop PC and remote
access through a LAN. Web GUI, SNMP and CLI (Telnet and HyperTerminal)
protocols are supported.
• USB Port (Type B) – used for local control, initial setup, status information and
troubleshooting with a laptop PC. A Command Line Interface (CLI) telnet session is
the supported protocol.
For a detailed description of the Web-GUI interface refer to Section 6.
For a detai
led description of the CLI interface refer to Section 7.
5.4.2 Local Access
The transmitter can be controlled and monitored locally (on si
te) through Ethernet Port A or
B and/or the USB port with a PC. The modulator front panel LCD and cursor/execute keys
can also be used for local access.
The Ethernet ports provide access to the Web GUI and CLI (through Telnet). The USB
interface provides access to the CLI, which allows the operator to perform initial
setup/troubleshooting when network connectivity is not available or desired.
5.4.3 Remote Access
The Net
work Management System (NMS) operator can control and monitor the transmitter
remotely through Ethernet Port A or B and LAN using the Web GUI and/or SNMP interfaces.
5.5 Modes of Operation
There are two main parameter groups
which determine the operating mode, the Transmitter
Operating Mode parameter group and the Modulator Operating Mode parameter group.
5.5.1 Transmitter Operating Modes
The c
hief transmitter operating modes are Broadcast and Standby.
If the transmitter experiences an AC power interruption under normal, no fault conditions,
the transmitter’s AC power-up algorithm will restore the mode of operation that was active
prior to the AC power interruption, once power is restored.
