Remote Operation Dual Antenna Arbitrator (MXP)
3-1
3. Remote Operation
Below are commands that are most commonly used for communicating with the ACU(s) or the Dual Antenna Arbitrator.
3.1. Automatic Beam Switching (ABS)
Listed below are the basic commands and their responses:

Notes:
1) Target NID is set using tnnnn but never read using mA commands.
2) Target NIDs of 54 and 55 are used to switch AUX on/off, effectively toggling CoPol/XPol in legacy mode.
3) Target NIDs of 48 and 49 are used to switch Reflector A or B in dual-Reflector pedestals in legacy mode.
3.2. Open Antenna-Modem Interface Protocol (OpenAMIP™) Specification:
3.2.1. Overview:
OpenAMIP
TM
, an ASCII message based protocol invented and Trademarked by iDirect is a specification
for the interchange of information between an antenna controller and a satellite modem. This protocol
allows the satellite modem to command the ACU (via TCP port 2002) to seek a particular satellite as well
as allowing exchange of information necessary to permit the modem to initiate and maintain
communication via the antenna and the satellite. In general, OpenAMIP
TM
is not intended for any
purpose except to permit a modem and the ACU to perform synchronized automatic beam switching. It
is NOT a status logging system or a diagnostic system. In addition, OpenAMIP
TM
is intended for a typical
installation whereby a specific satellite modem and Antenna system are properly configured to work
together. The protocol does not make specific provisions for auto-discovery or parameter negotiation.
It is still the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the parameters of both the satellite modem
(proper option files) and the ACU/PCU (setup parameters) are actually compatible for the intended
satellite(s).
