How to use

The General page displays device name and software version information.

On the Switching Control page, it is possible to change/configure the Control and Operation modes of the device. Note that setting the Operation mode to Automatic will not work in some cases (if both sites are transmitting, if there is a specific (configurable) pattern of switches, or if at least one polarization is not in maintenance mode). On this page, before you try to switch to site 1 or 2, make sure to select the Polarization and Chains that need to be switched.
