Modulator

Refer to Figure 4-15.

UTILITY

Displays single code/data rate modems only.

If CR/DR is blank, [ENTER] CR: ____ code and data rate one time.

If CR/DR is displayed, DR: _____ KB, then fixed code/data rate is
shown.

ASSIGN TRANSMIT
FILTERS

Transmit filter display/assignment utility. Used to make filter rate
re-assignments. The modulator has five symbol rate filter presets
designated as A, B, C, D, and V.

Code Rate

Data Rate Range

BPSK 1/2

2.4 to 1250 kbit/s

QPSK 1/2

4.8 to 2500 kbit/s

QPSK 3/4

7.2 to 3750 kbit/s

QPSK 7/8

8.4 to 4375 kbit/s

Notes:

1. Maximum Symbol Rate: 2500 kbit/s
2. Maximum Data Rate for Low Var. Rate: 512 kbit/s
3. Switching between modem type resets the filter presets to

their factory defined values. Refer to Figure 4-15 for other
code rates assigned to the modem.

To change a preset assignment, press [ENTER] when the data for
that preset is displayed. Press [

"] or [#] until the flashing cursor is
