6) Alignment Confirmation
To check the receiver has locked to the correct carrier type in
tcmp
and confirm the following.
Also ensure that you have a minimum of 0.0001 QPSKBER reading. If not, please adjust your
dish until you reach at least this figure. Note that the more zeros after the decimal point, the
better your rx and tx signals will be.
Troubleshooting:
If the CarrierPhase is reading (!) LOCKED and the RSVIT is (!) LOCKED, then check your dish
pointing, and also your boot parameter configuration using the pconf command mentioned
above. Ensure also you have the correct polarity set, which is Horizontal RX.
If you are sure that the dish is pointed correctly, then check your cables are securely connected
at both ends, and no water etc has got into the cables.
7. CW Test
This procedure is for enabling the RCST to transmit a CW carrier from the remote site.
Before starting this test, the PWR and ODU lights should be on, and the SAT light should
be flashing. If not, then consult the troubleshooting steps above.
1. The CW carrier is measured in the InternetVSAT / Hub office.
For this measurement, the RCST must transmit a CW signal over the satellite. The
Transmit frequency is specified on the CW commands.
DO NOT TRANSMIT A CW CARRIER UNLESS TRANSMIT
