Service friendly
The system configuration is saved in two modules, there is no loss of data at repair.
The large service hatch of the radome gives easy access to the ADU on site. The service
switch in the ADU stops the DC Motor Driver modules. The service tools for replacing
modules are placed on a tool holder inside the radome.
All modules have a service and power LED status indicator. Each module is
encapsulated in a metal box with self-contained mounting bolts.
If necessary, belts and modules can be exchanged through the service hatch on site.
You can do remote diagnostics and service with the ADU. Its built-in test equipment
checks constantly the ADU’s components for proper functioning, it monitors and logs
information for all modules. The ADU performs a POST (Power On Self Test) and you
can request a self test (PAST, Person Activated Self Test) and Continuous Monitoring
(CM). Error codes can be read out in the web interface, the Control Panel and in the
display of the ACU.
ADU software is updated automatically when making a software update of the ACU.
2.1.2 Antenna Control Unit (ACU)
The ACU is the central unit in the system. It manages all communication to the ADU.
The ACU has a display, status LEDs and a keypad for viewing system parameters. Setup
and configuration of satellite profiles is done using a PC or the Control Panel. During
configuration you can configure heading, manage satellite profiles and enter blocking
zones where the ADU can be expected not to receive a TV signal.
The ACU provides DC power to the ADU through a single coaxial cable. You can use the
SAILOR 6080 Power Supply to provide the DC power for the ACU.
