SNM-1001L Satellite Modem

Revision 1

Remote Control Operation MN/SNM1001L.IOM

B–12

Local
Modem
AUPC
Mode

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/LMA_xxx'cr''lf']
>add/LMA_xxx'cr''lf']

Where: xxx = ON or OFF.
This command configures the modem for the LOCAL
MODEM AUPC mode. When 'ON' is selected, the AUPC
configuration can be entered.

RTS TX-IF
Control
Mode

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/RTSM_xxx'cr''lf']
>add/RTSM_xxx'cr''lf']

Where: xxx = ON or OFF.
This command configures the modem for the RTS TX-IF
control mode. If 'ON' is selected, the TX-IF output will only
be turned on if the incoming RTS signal is asserted (also
the TX-IF output has to be programmed ON and no major
modulator faults are present). If 'OFF' is selected, the TX-
IF output will operate normal ignoring the RTS signal.

RF Mode
Control

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/RFMD_xxxx'cr''lf']
>add/RFMD_xxxx'cr''lf']

Where: xxxx = NRM (Normal Mode), PWR (Turn RF off
on power up), COMM (Turn RF off on power up and loss
of remote communications after 10 seconds), CD (Turn
RF ON when carrier is detected, turn RF OFF when no
carrier is detected. For the RF ON condition, the TX-IF
must be programmed ON. Note: RTS TX-IF, when
enabled over-rides CD).

This command allows for the RF output to be enabled or
disabled depending on the following described conditions.
One application for this command will be in demand
network systems.

Receive
Mode
Selection

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/RXM_xxxxx'cr''lf']
>add/RXM_xxxxx'cr''lf']

This command configures the modem receive side to
operate in burst mode or continous mode.

Xxxxx = BURST or CONT (Continuous)

Transmit
Mode
Selection

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/TXM_xxxxx'cr''lf']
>add/TXM_xxxxx'cr''lf']

This command configures the modem receive side to
operate in burst mode or continous mode.

Xxxxx = BURST or CONT (Continuous)

Max Packet
Size

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/BPS_xxxxxxx'cr''lf']
>add/BPs_xxxxxxx'cr''lf']

This command sets the maximum packet size.

Xxxxxxx = 0 to 1048576 bits.

B.3.5 Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC)

AUPC Local
Enable

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/LPC_xxx'cr''lf']
>add/LPC_xxx'cr''lf']

Where: xxx = ON or OFF.

Notes:

1. When programmed ON, the MOP (Modulator

Output Power) command is not allowed, only MOP
status is allowed.

1.

ASYNC or AUPC Overhead only.

AUPC
Nominal
Power Level

Command:
Response:
Status:
Response:

>add/NOMP_snn.n'cr''lf']
>add/NOMP_snn.n'cr''lf']

Where: snn.n = -30.0 to -5.0, in 0.1 steps (nominal range
in dBm).

Notes:

1. The nominal power range is modified relative to

the value specified by the modulator power offset
(MPO_).

2. ASYNC or AUPC Overhead only.
