Operation, Rack and Digital HPAs
Overview
The Xicom Digital M&C System, which is incorporated into all
Xicom XTD and XTRD series amplifiers provides a common
user interface for the entire line of Microwave Tubes. The M&C
system can be accessed from the front panel of the rackmount
amplifiers or via a serial remote control interface on either a
rackmount or ODU amplifier. This chapter discusses the user
interface, the Xicom Digital M&C System menu tree, and the
individual menus and screens available from a remote PC
running WRemote.
WRemote
WRemote is a Windows Operating System based program that
simulates the front panel of a rackmount amplifier. This program
controls both rackmount and digital ODU amplifiers. WRemote
is available from Xicom Technology (Xicom part number:
809-0001-001).
Controls and Indicators
The amplifier is controlled by a microprocessor that responds to
commands from the front panel of rackmount amplifiers
(LOCAL) or commands from a digital controller connected to the
serial interface port (COM1 or COM2) of the amplifier
(REMOTE). The menus/screens displayed are generated by the
installed firmware. The menus/screens and the full set of
amplifier commands are discussed in the paragraphs “Menu and
Screen Descriptions” on page 13 and “Menutrees” on page 40.
The communication protocols for the remote control serial
interfaces are described in the Chapter titled
Amplifier
Communication and Protocol .
The LED Display is shown in Figure 1 on page 8.
The LED indicators are summarized in Table 1 on page 8.
