output frequency.
Power
Allows the operator to configure the
output power of the main RF output port.
The monitor output power level for the
EN-XX IF and L-Band is fixed at -45dBm.
Power is defined as the composite power
referenced to an un-modulated (Pure
Carrier) carrier.
7039: -50 to -7dBm LBAND
7139: -35 to +5dBm LBAND
-30 to +5dBm IF
Spectrum
Inversion
The Spectrum Inversion options are either
Normal or Invert. If Normal is selected,
then spectrum inversion does not occur.
Spectral inversion can occur when either
the baseband signal is up-converted to an
IF frequency or when the IF is
upconverted to the desired RF output
frequency.
Invert
Normal
FEC Frame
When operating in DVB-S2, the Frame
Type options are either Normal or Short.
The Normal 64,800-bit FEC frame
provides better protection but introduces
more latency compared to the Short
16,200-bit FEC frame. Therefore, the
Short FEC frame type should be selected
in applications where latency is critical and
the longer frame type should be used to
optimize protection.
Short
Normal
Rolloff
The Rolloff selection will determine the
shape of the output filter. The occupied
bandwidth of the modulated signal is the
symbol rate multiplied by (1+α) where
alpha (α) is the rolloff factor. By using a
lower alpha, carriers can be spaced closer
together on a given transponder or an
increased symbol rate can be realized for
a given bandwidth.

Pilot
When operating in DVB-S2, the Pilot
options are either ON or OFF. When pilots
are enabled, the total data throughput is
reduced by approximately 3.0%.

Priority
The Rate Priority control allows the
operator to designate which rate will be
kept constant. When the Symbol Rate is
entered and Rate Priority is Symbol, the
symbol rate is held constant and the
Interface rate is calculated. When the
