9.447 Newtec-AZ410

This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Newtec Azimuth AZ410 DVB Modem. The driver accesses the device via SNMP.

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 .

• --- The IF parameters (frequency, level, etc.) and some global settings.
• --- The modulator settings.
• --- The DVB-S2 specific parameters
• --- The demodulator settings.
• --- The TX interface settings.
• --- The network routes.
• --- The meter readings.
• --- The faults page.
• --- The device info page.
• --- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.

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 AZ410.

• parameter --- description

• address --- The SNMP address specification for the device. The full address specification consists of the following fields:aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:pppp read-community write-community

  • aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd --- The IP address of the device in 'dotted quad' notation. This field is mandatory.
  • pppp --- The IP port number where the device accepts SNMP requests. The port number may be omitted, the driver uses the standard port 161 in this case.
  • read-community --- The SNMP read community name. This must match the read community expected by the device.
  • write-community --- The SNMP write community name. This must match the write community expected by the device. The write community name may be omitted, the driver uses the read community name for both, read and write in this case. If both community names are missing, the driver uses 'public' as a default for read and write community.

• rx.1.lnbPower --- Switches the LNB power for input 1 ON or OFF

• rx.1.lnbVoltage --- Selects the LNB voltage and 22kHz tone for input 1

• rx.1.lnbTone -- Switches the LNB tone (22kHz) for input 1 ON or OFF

• rx.1.spectrInv --- Selects if to invert the lo frequency calculation for input 1. Select NORM if the signal frequency is above the LO, INVERT if the signal frequency is below the LO.

• rx.2.lnbPower --- Switches the LNB power for input 2 ON or OFF

• rx.2.lnbVoltage --- Selects the LNB voltage and 22kHz tone for input 2

• rx.2.lnbTone -- Switches the LNB tone (22kHz) for input 2 ON or OFF

• rx.2.spectrInv --- Selects if to invert the lo frequency calculation for input 2. Select NORM if the signal frequency is above the LO, INVERT if the signal frequency is below the LO.

• rx.loFreqHigh --- Defines the high band receive lo frequency, applicable for both inputs.

• rx.loFreqLow --- Defines the low band receive lo frequency, applicable for both inputs.

• rx.bandEdge --- Defines the band edge frequency.

• tx.loFreq --- Defines the transmit (BUC) lo frequency.

• tx.loPolarity --- Selects if to invert the transmit lo frequency calculation. Select NORM if the signal frequency is above the LO, INVERT if the signal frequency is below the LO.
