FUNCTION SELECT: FAULTS/ALARMS: RX INTERFACE
RX INTERFACE
---------------
BUFFER UNDERFLOW Buffer underflow alarm. Indicates that a buffer underflow has occurred.
BUFFER OVERFLOW Buffer overflow alarm. Indicates that a buffer overflow has occurred.
RX DATA/AIS Data or AIS. When data fault is selected in the Configuration Interface
menu the fault indicates a data stable condition. This indicates the data
coming from the satellite is all 1s or 0s (i.e., data is not transitioning).
When AIS is selected, the Alarm indicates the data is all 1s from the
satellite. When None is selected in the Configuration Interface menu, the
RX Data/AIS Fault/Alarm is not activated.
Note: AIS is an alarm, not a switching fault.
FRAME BER Frame BER fault. Indicates that the frame BER exceeds 1-3.
BACKWARD ALARM Backward alarms.
BUFFER CLK PLL Buffer clock phase-locked loop fault. Indicates the buffer clock PLL is not
locked.
BUFFER CLK ACT Activity detector alarm of the selected interface receive clock. The
interface will fall back to the satellite clock when this fault is active.
DEMUX LOCK DEMUX lock fault. Indicates that the DEMUX is not locked.
RX 2047 LOCK RX 2047 lock alarm. Indicates the RX 2047 data pattern is not locked.
Note: This alarm is only active if RX 2047 is ON.
BUFFER FULL Buffer full alarm. Indicates the buffer is less than 10% or greater than 90%
full.
RX INSERT Insert interface hardware fault. Typically indicates the insert interface PLL
is not locked. This fault is only available when D&I is selected for modem
type.
RX AUDIO 1 CLIP IDR RX audio for channel 1 is clipped.
RX AUDIO 2 CLIP IDR RX audio for channel 2 is clipped.
