About the Manual
GMS User Manuals focus on providing the end user an easy to understand operational instructions to
quickly setup and deploy the equipment. The GMS Technical Operation Manuals focus on the technical
details and setup of the equipment. The Technical Manuals also provide a more in depth explanation of
the settings and specifications of the equipment that technicians can use to verify the operational
status.
This manual provides information on how to operate the MVRD (Messenger VETA Receiver Decoder) as
well as pertinent technical information related to the overall system.
The manual is divided into three main sections:
Getting started and basic operation
This section describes to users how to deploy and use a MVRD unit.
Advanced operation
This section describes the operation of the system in more detail, concentrating particularly on
advanced use of Local Control Panel and the GUI.
Technical reference
This section provides technical specification and control protocol data and will be of interest to those
integrating the MVRD into larger systems or using unusual configurations.
The MVRD is pre-configured by GMS prior to shipment (based on customer requirements), thus is ready
to work “right out of the box”.
MVRD is supplied with the following cables:
780-C0484
Power Cable w/AC/DC Power Supply
780-C0456
MVRD USB Control Cable
Additional cables and antennas may be delivered by GMS based on customer application. Contact
GMS for further information.
