The standard SDM-9000 with all PCB assemblies installed (Chapter 1) is a full-duplex
QPSK satellite modem. The system can also be configured for TX-only or RX-only
operation.

Enter the System Utility menu on the front panel and select Operation mode.

Enter the menu and select TX-only. This will mask the RX faults and stored

faults in the Faults menu.

2. For RX-only system, the modulator PCB (AS/3969) should be removed.

Enter the System Utility menu on the front panel and select Operation mode.

Enter the menu and select RX-only. This will mask the TX faults and stored

faults in the Faults menu.
