DTE-3114 – Networked Quad QAM Modulator 

 

 

USER 

MANUAL

 

 

20 

Variable 

Description 

Web 

SNMP 

TS rate change 

counter 

Counter that keeps the number of bitrate changes 

detected 

NA 

RO 

IP jitter error counter 

Counter that keeps the number of times that the jitter of 

an IP packet exceeds the IP jitter tolerance for this channel 

NA 

Lock error counter 

Counter that keeps the number of channel restarts. A 

channel restart may occur in the following cases: 

The bitrate of the incoming IP stream changes. 

The jitter on the incoming IP packets exceeds the IP jitter 

tolerance for this channel. 

The bitrate of the incoming IP stream exceeds the 

maximum input bitrate, resulting in an overflow of the 

internal buffers. 

RO 

RO 

Delay factor 

The delay factor in µs. The delay factor is the maximum 

difference, observed at the network input of the DTE-

3114, between the actual arrival time of a UDP/RTP 

packet and the ideal (jitterless) arrival time of the packet. 

The DTE-3114 measures the delay factor once every 

second. 

RO 

RO 

Clear counters 

Clears the Lost-before-FEC, Lost-after-FEC and Lock-error 

counters in the web interface 

WO 

NA 

3.2.6 SNMP alarms 

Variable 

Description 

Web 

SNMP 

Temp alarm enable 

Enable or disable the temperature alarm 

NA 

R/W 

Temp alarm value 

Threshold value for the temperature alarm (in degrees 

Celsius). If the internal device temperature exceeds this 

value, an alarm is generated  

NA 

R/W 

RF alarm enable 

Enable or disable the RF alarm 

NA 

R/W 

RF alarm value 

Maximum difference in dB between the device's target 

and measured RF level (in tenths of dB) 

NA 

R/W 

3.3 Web GUI 

The  web  interface  can  be  accessed  straightforwardly  with  a  web  browser.  The  following  browsers 

have been tested: Internet Explorer 7 and 8, Firefox 3.5, Safari 4, Chrome 3 and Opera 10. After 

entering the URL of the device in the address bar of the browser, the Device Status webpage of the 

DTE-3114 web interface will be displayed by default. 

3.3.1 Web GUI – Information box 

The lower-left corner of each page contains an “information box”. It provides  device information: 

serial  number,  hardware  and  firmware  version  number,  IP  and  MAC  address,  connection  speed, 

power source and internal device temperature.
