Edit Field
Description
Description
A meaningful name or description for the carrier can be entered
in this field. Up to 31 characters can be entered. This name will
appear on the DVB Carrier page where the carrier status is
provided. If a description is not specified, the word Empty will
be displayed on the DVB Carrier page.
Frequency
Is the L-Band receive frequency of the carrier in Hz, in the
numeric range 950000000 - 2150000000 Hz.
Symbol Rate
Is the symbol rate of the carrier in symbols per second, in the
numeric range
1000000
-
45000000
S/s for earlier models of
receivers, and
256000
-
45000000
S/s for later models.
NOTE:
The carrier
symbol rate
includes all
applied FEC
and must be
an exact
value.
NOTE:
If only one carrier
is being used in
the network, both
Carrier A and B
should be set to
that carrier. This
will reduce the
lock time because
the receiver does
not have to check
for two different
carriers.
