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 upconverter.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | The device address (decimal) as set at the device's front panel. |
| Serial | Remember to set the line parameters for the serial interface. |
| powerDisplayMode | Defines the display of gain or attenuation in the parameter section. |
| extMuteInput | Defines to disable or enable the input for Hardware Mute (RF-Inhibit). |
| extRef | Defines the reference source. |
| autoSave | Store current parameters automatically in the instrument startup configuration. |
| bandSelect | Defines the used frequency band. |
| accessMode | Full Control: Enables changes on all rx parameters Blocked by RSCM: Disables changes on all rx parameters (readonly). |
| hasEqualizer | Defines if the unit is equipped with an equalizer. |
Remote Control
Default TCP Port= 50505
