Placing PES 5000 version 3 in AUTO COM mode
The PES 5000 version 3 does not have an AUTO COM push-button as prior PES 5000 products do. To place the unit in
AUTO COM mode, simultaneously press the left-arrow, up-arrow, and SELECT keys. The effect of AUTO-COM mode
depends on whether the network for this remote is set for disaster recovery or not.
If the network is set for disaster recovery, placing the indoor unit in AUTO COM mode causes it to display an antenna
pointing voltage. If the primary satellite has been lost, on-site personnel can (if they so elect) take steps to establish
communications on an alternate satellite. They will need to be informed of the name and location of the alternate satellite.
They will also need to be informed of the antenna pointing angles to the alternate satellite. In a disaster recovery
situation, HNS plans on posting delta azimuth, elevation, and polarization values on the internet website:

On-site personnel could then adjust the antenna to the alternate satellite. Then a two person team could refine the antenna
aiming with one person observing the antenna pointing voltage on the indoor unit and communicating with the other
person at the antenna. This communication could be by talking out the window, via walkie-talkies, or via cellular phone.
After the antenna pointing voltage has been minimized below 5.0 volts, the on-site personnel would simultaneously press
the left-arrow, up-arrow, and SELECT keys again. This action will cause the remote to begin ranging at the next
opportunity (could be a significant delay as many remotes will be attempting to range). The PC display will be
3/something dot during ranging. After ranging successfully completes, the remote automatically switches to normal
mode. For more information regarding disaster recovery, refer to ISBN Network Disaster Recovery Operations Guide
Release 1.0 (Phase 1), HNS document number 1027021-0001 Revision 1, November 5, 1998.
If the network is not set for disaster recovery, the remote reboots and goes into autocommissioning and starts ranging if
the Hub is set for AC Remote Ranging on the INRTDEF screen. Simultaneously pressing those keys a second time
causes the remote to reboot and return to normal mode.

PES 5000 version 3 Replaceable Parts
Usually the PES 5000 version 3 is replaced as an entire unit. However, the power supply and the PLC are replaceable
parts. The PLC part numbers are listed in table 3 on page 5. The power supply part number is 1027114-0001. Normally,
the PES 5000 version 3 should be replaced with a PES 5000 version 3.
