IRD Operation and Management
Both IRD-2600 and IRD-2800 Integrated Receiver Decoders can be manually managed
from the IRD Front Control Panel, locally by a PC Terminal or remotely, from the Uplink
through the incoming Bit Stream.
Manual management of the IRD is provided from the IRD Front Control Panel by the
keypad on the panel, or by using an optional Infrared Remote Control. The LCD on the
panel displays the menus and options of the IRD embedded software.
The Infrared Remote Control can be ordered through a local SCOPUS Network
Technologies Ltd. product supplier.
Management from the Uplink is achieved with the CODICO
®
NMS-4000 Network
Management System. Management from the PC Terminal requires a serial line (RS-232)
communication cable to be connected between the IRD and a communication port on the
PC. The Terminal Control software is a command line prompt accessible via any PC with
Terminal Software installed. For details, refer to Chapter 2 above.
