--- The operational parameters
--- The redundancy switching parametersThis page describes the device driver and the device window for the Comtech upconverter series UT4500 with serial interface and support for the internal 1+1 redundancy.
The driver detects the model name and adapts the frequency range.
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type.
--- The operational parameters --- The redundancy switching parametersConfiguration 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 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 |
