Video Test Points
The Video test points are fully programmable from the « CONFIG » window (refer to the MCS User’s Manual and
the TCP/IP Interface Specification, Global Table) for monitoring any baseband signal:

Note 1
: Active (5 V) during FSK or PSK modulation or transmission of an Execute or pseudo-earth pulse.
Note 2
: Set to 5 V at the beginning of the ranging sequence (transmission of first tone). Drops to 0 V at:
The first measurement performed on the first tone (INMARSAT and LMCO standards) or
The first measurement on the major tone (ESA, ESA-like, USB, and ESA code standard).
