Table 6: Individual Fault-Based Muting
ATOMControl shows all of the values relevant to fault-based muting in the top-right
groupbox in the Mute tab in the Controls section of the User Interface. The value of the
Mute On Faults parameter is displayed along with a button that allows the Mute On
Faults value to be toggled between 0 and 1.
Controls are also provided for each of the individual Mute On Fault parameters (Mute On
Power Fault, Mute On PLL Fault, Mute On Over Temperature Fault) though the controls
are automatically disabled if the device does not support the individual parameters.
The groupbox additionally contains three read-only checkboxes that indicate whether
each of the three mute-inducing faults has been detected. Figure 7 below shows the
hardware-based muting controls:
