Section 3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 INTRODUCTION
This section contains operating
instructions for the VR-Link, including:
•
ECMP Controls and Indicators (see
3.2)
•
Vector GUI Settings (see 3.3)
•
Netburner Controls and Settings (see
3.4)
•
Netburner Software Upgrade (see 3.5)
3.2 ECMP CONTROLS AND
INDICATORS
Nautel recommends that the operator/
maintainer be familiar with the controls and
indicators of the extended control/monitor
panel before operating or attempting to
perform fault diagnostics.
ECMPs for the VR-Link are optional
components. The VR-Link has provision to
connect to three external ECMPs and one
internal ECMP. See the ECMP Technical
Instruction Manual for details on ECMP
operation. Information that is exclusive to
VR-Link operation is included in this
section.
3.2.1 Front Panel
See the ECMP manual. The ECMP front
panel, if installed, is the primary local user
interface.
Switches and LED indicators can be
reconfigured to suit the user’s needs via
the Netburner web page. Nautel
configures the VR-Link for the most
common controls and indications. See
section 3.4 for more information on
reconfiguring the ECMP.
3.2.1.1 ECMP Control Switches
RF ON – This switch gives the user the
capability of turning the Vector series
transmitter on or off from a remote
location. As with all control switches the
Vector must be set in remote operation for
the control switch to function.
Also, if there is more than one ECMP
connected to the VR-Link, then all ECMPs
must have the
RF ON switch set to the
ON position before the transmitter can
turn on. This only applies while the
transmitter is in remote operation. It
prevents someone from turning the
transmitter on if someone else has turned
it off at another location.
AUD ALARM (not used with ECMP3s) –
This switch allows the user to mute the
speaker. The speaker can be tied to any
number of alarms or channels using the
Netburner web page. The audible alarm is
preconfigured to sound when a
SHUTDOWN has occurred.
TIMER – The TIMER switch allows the
user to turn off the output power of the
transmitter after a given amount of time.
The timer settings are set within the
Vectors GUI (see Vector Technical
Instruction Manual, sections 3.3 and 3.4).
For proper operation all ECMPs must be
set to
RF ON . When the TIMER switch is
set to the ON state on any ECMP, the
transmitter will count down from the set
time and then turn off. In order to turn the
transmitter back on,
RF POWER must be
toggled OFF (wait a second or two) and
then ON again. This can be done on any
ECMP, Netburner web page or locally at
