OPU-1
UNIVERSAL POWER-LINE CARRIER SYSTEM TYPE OPU-1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION - Rev 7 (May 2019)
41/67
The only manual adjustment required is that of the line and reception filters. The
Management System contains a help menu in which the operations for the adjustment
of these filters are indicated for each channel.
❖
Modulation levels and percentages (analog channel).
The system allows the signal-level percentages assigned to each signal as well as their
input and output levels to be defined. This section also defines the power boosting used
to send the teleprotection signal, as well as the signals of the analog channel that must
be excluded when it is sent.
❖
Signal-level percentages (digital channel).
The system allows the signal-level percentages assigned to the pilot and QAM/OFDM
signals to be defined.
❖
Blocking.
The audio-frequency outputs can be blocked because of pilot loss or excessive noise.
The user can define the signal-to-noise ratio for each output for which blocking must be
effected as well as the value of excess noise which causes the external alarm to be
activated.
❖
Alarms.
The terminal has three alarm signalling relays, with a simple contact, to which an alarm
or combination of alarms can be assigned from the Management System.
❖
Analog optional modules.
From the Management System it is possible to program all the parameters of the
analog optional modules, such as the transmission speed and central frequency of the
modem and speech characteristics, and teleprotection parameters.
❖
Multiplexer
Allows the operative parameters of the data ports of the MQPU module to be
programmed, as well as those of the data and speech ports of the modules of the
optional internal multiplexer. It also makes it possible to de-activate the service
associated to a port, activating it again when necessary.
