1.237 ETL-Stingray-FO-TX-Serial

This page describes the ETL-Stingray-FO-TX-Serial device driver and its device window. The ETL-Stingray-FO-TX-Serial device driver monitors and controls one fibre transmit card within a Stingray FO chassis.

Please Note: There is also a SNMP based driver for the ETL stingray Chassis and its cards available

Multiple instances of these device may be configured in the sat-nms M&C to handle all cards within the chassis. All devices referring to the same physical device must be configured at the same device thread / interface to ensure that requests to the device do not overlap.

The 'slot' configuration parameter is used to select which of the physical cards in the Stingray chassis this particular sat-nms device shall control.

Device window pages

The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type. Tool-bar functions not mentioned here are described at the general description of device windows .

Configuration parameters

At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the device.

parameter description
address The serial address specification for the device.
setLimits En- or disable the monitoring functions of the card.
fixGain.1 En- or disable fixed gain for channel 1.
fixGain.2 En- or disable fixed gain for channel 2.
rfPowerSet.1 Sets the rf output power (AGC) of channel 1.
rfPowerSet.2 Sets the rf output power (AGC) of channel 2.
lnbVoltage.1 Sets the lnb voltage of the rf input of channel 1.
lnbVoltage.2 Sets the lnb voltage of the rf input of channel 2.
22kHz.1 Sets the 22kHz / tone of the rf input of channel 1.
22kHz.2 Sets the 22kHz / tone of the rf input of channel 2.
limitsLnbCurr.1 En- or disable LNB current monitoring for channel 1. LNB current out of its +/- 20% range will set an alarm.
limitsLnbCurr.2 En- or disable LNB current monitoring for channel 2. LNB current out of its +/- 20% range will set an alarm.
hasLnb Selects if the tx card is equipped with LNB supply.
hasDual Selects if the tx card is dual or single channel and en- or disable parameters accordingly.
slot Selects the slot position where the controlled card is equipped. This is mandatory for proper operation.
