Fault/Alarm

Possible Problem and Action

BUFFER CLK PLL

Buffer clock phase-locked loop fault. The buffer synthesizer is the
wrong frequency or will not lock.

Ensure the selected buffer clock source is at the proper frequency and
level. If the fault continues, contact the Comtech EF Data Customer
Support Department.

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

Demultiplexer synchronization lock fault. This fault means that the
demultiplexer is unable to maintain valid frame and multiframe
alignment.

The usual cause is invalid or absent receive data. This is a major
(prompt) alarm. The alarm will cause insertion of receive AIS (all 1s)
and the switch-over will be attempted. This fault is to be sent as a
backward alarm to the distant end. This fault will occur when no
carrier is present, but will probably never occur with a correct signal.

RX 2047 LOCK

RX 2047 lock alarm.

Indicates the RX 2047 data test pattern is not being received by the
decoder. The alarm probably indicates the transmitter is not set
correctly.

BUFFER FULL

Buffer full alarm.

Indicates the buffer is < 10% or > 90% full.

CONFIGURATION Configuration

fault.


Indicates the selected, Fault Relay or Fault LED is not functioning.
Check the signal of the selected RX source to verify the signal is
present. The configuration will fall back to the default when this alarm
is active.
