This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Satellite Systems (SSC) L-Band beacon tracking receiver of series 3430 BTR-L . It uses the Terminal-CR-CR protocol.
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type.
--- The control parameters
--- 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 controller.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | Device address for serial communication |
| Serial | Remember to set the line parameters for the serial interface (only if connected to serial port of beacon receiver and not to Ethernet) |
| 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. |
