• Auto Switching – This is a Vipersat feature that is enabled in the CDM-
570/570L Features menu. If Auto Switching is not enabled, Load
Switching will be ignored. There is no automatic switching enable button
in the SLM-5650A modem configuration menus; the operator enables
each switching function individually.
• Load Switching – This is a type of Automatic Switching that is based on
the amount of traffic at the Remote. If this feature is not enabled, then this
Remote will not be switched based on load.
• SCPC Step Up Threshold – This is a window threshold that initiates a
load switch to a higher data rate when the amount of traffic as measured
within the transmit queue exceeds this setting. The value is specified as a
percentage of the current data rate.
