1.392 Miteq-LCL

This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Miteq-LCL LNA/LNB redundancy controller.

Tested with Miteq-LCL-RAU2 1:2 LNA Control unit

Device window pages

The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type.

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 controller.

parameter description
address The device address (ascii code) as set at the device's front panel. Default address is @.
Serial Remember to set the line parameters for the serial interface
readBackDelay Defines the delay the driver uses when it reads back parameters recently commanded. The delay is initialized at a proved preset value which should not be changed under normal circumstances.
model Define the model/redundancy mode of the controller to be controlled by the device.
iLowLimit.1 Set the low current threshold for the 1st LNA.
iHighLimit.1 Set the high current threshold for the 1st LNA.
iLowLimit.1 Set the low current threshold for the 2nd LNA.
iHighLimit.1 Set the high current threshold for the 2nd LNA.
iLowLimit.1 Set the low current threshold for the 3rd LNA.
iHighLimit.1 Set the high current threshold for the 3rd LNA.
