MAIN FUNCTIONS AND PARAMETERS DESCRIPTION
5.1.
Overview
Four interfaces are available to set the transmitter:
The front panel menus for local configuration – see chapter 6
The serial/Telnet commands for local or remote configuration – see chapter 7
The Engi PC application for local or remote configuration – see chapter 8
The embedded web site for remote configuration – see chapter 9
In all cases, the parameters are the same and they are described below.
Remote configuration can only be done if the transmitter is fitted with a TCP/IP board.
5.2.
Local mode
The local mode is used for maintenance operations. It allows the technician to make sure nobody nor any system will
control the transmitter during the operation.
Enable/Disable the local mode
With the front panel local button. The lit yellow LED indicates the unit is in local mode; it is in remote mode
when the LED is off.
With a serial command:
o
for a module: CONF.MODE= LOCAL or REMOTE,
o
for a transmitter: TX.MODE=LOCAL or REMOTE.
Modification of the configuration with local interfaces
In local mode, the transmitter can be modified using the front panel application (see chapter 6), with serial commands
(see chapter 7) or with the PC application (see chapter 8).
Disabling remote control interfaces
If the module is equipped with the GPIO option, in local mode, inputs and outputs are disabled until the transmitter is
no longer in local mode (see chapter 10).
If the module is equipped with the Communication Pack option, in local mode, updates with the web site are not
accessible.
If the module is an amplifier or a exciter included in a redundant system (non CCU for a exciter) such as a DD, 1+1 or
N+1 system, any command from the management unit will not be taken into account by the module.
Signal suppression mode
If the module is equipped with the Communication Pack option, the SNMP includes a “signal suppression” function
which works in local mode and makes it possible to not transmit traps associated with maintenance operations (see
section 9.7.8 for more details).
