N:M redundancy (protected) configurations. The message interval can be speci-

Enter
P
at the command prompt in the
Vipersat Configuration
screen
(figure 3-5) to toggle this feature between
Enabled
and
Disabled
.
Home State Revert
This menu item appears for the Remote modem only.
The
Home State Revert
feature allows automatic resource recovery to be
performed on SCPC connections when a communications failure occurs
between the VMS and a Remote, such as a rain fade condition, a Remote unit
power down, or a hardware failure. The period of time (in minutes) for a failure
is configured in the VMS for each Remote in the network. Should communica-
tions be lost for more than the specified time period, the Remote will automati-
cally revert to its Home State settings and the VMS will remove all allocated
resources (bandwidth, demod(s)), freeing them for use by any other Remote in
the network.
Because this feature is configured in the VMS, the status (Enabled or Disabled)
appears as an information-only display in the
Vipersat Configuration
menu
(figure 3-5).
Dynamic Power Control Configuration
Dynamic Power Control
(DPC) is a Vipersat feature that acts to regulate the
transmit power of the Vipersat satellite modem, such that the specified receive
signal level (Eb/No) is met for the receiving Vipersat units in the group. DPC is
driven by the receiver demod, which notifies the transmitting modem of the
current Eb/No value.
Refer to
Appendix C, Dynamic Power Control
, in this document for additional
information on the DPC feature.
The Dynamic Power Control Configuration screen (enter
C
in the
Vipersat
Configuration
menu) allows for setting the parameters for the CDM-570/570L
power levels. The information and commands in the menu will vary depending
on the function that the target CDM-570/570L performs in the network. The
screen shown in figure 3-51 is for a Hub or Remote operating in STDMA mode.
For comparison, the DPC Config screen for a unit operating as a Hub or Remote
with Expansion (SCPC mode) is shown in figure 3-52. Note that only the appli-
cable settings appear in this screen.
