Single cable multiswich programmer PC102W
1.
Product description
The PC102W - single cable multiswich programmer (in the text - programmer) is useful instrument while configuring and troubleshooting SAT IF
distribution system built on dSCR multiswitches based on new digital channel stacking components.
The application software “dSCRmaster” for Windows operating system PCs allows simply change parameters of the multiswitch: operating mode
(static or dynamic), frequency plan for static mode, frequency and bandwidth of user bands for dynamic mode, output power level of each user
band carrier and etc.
Service mode of the multiswitch could be switched on for quick finding the problem during installation work. In an internal memory four different
configuration files can be stored (prepared on the PC) and send to the multiswitch by pressing dedicated buttons on the PC102W.
The programmer can feed DC power for the multiswitch using the external AC/DC power adapter and allows parallel connection to a PC over USB
cable. The remote Wi-Fi access allows to modify parameters of dSCR multiswitch from any device (tablet, smartphone, laptop, PC) using web
browser. The PC102W, wirelessly connected to the WiFi access point, can be used for remote control and monitoring of the multiswitch.
The programmer is supplied with an external AC/DC adapter (PS202F). An application SW “dSCRmaster” is available from the Web.

Safety instructions
Installation of the programmer must be done according IEC60728-11 and national safety standards.
Any repairs must be made by qualified personnel.
To avoid the electric shock follow these instructions:
