SETUP - INITIAL CONFIGURATION MENU

When delivered, or if the non-volatile memory should ever be cleared, the unit must be completely
configured using the

SETUP, INITIAL CONFIG

option. This takes the operator through all the sections of the

CHANGE

procedure described below to ensure all parameters are set. Only when '

SETUP, INITIAL-CONFIG

'

has been performed once can

STATUS

be selected from the main menu. This ensures operation is not

selected until all critical parameters are specified.

Other options on the

SETUP

menu are:

CHECK

:

Which allow the setup to be checked, and looks for unusual combinations of
configuration parameters (eg IBS with rate

f

FEC coding, multiple scramblers

selected). Check does not prevent operation with any configuration, it is simply a
convenience for the operator if there are configuration difficulties. The Setup
Check takes several seconds to run and displays a message when the process
is complete.

MEMORIES:

STORE, RECALL

, and

ERASE

which allows access to the configuration memories

of the Modem. The current configuration can be stored, another recalled, or an
old stored configuration deleted. This provides a fast method of switching
between multiple configurations when required.
