Egatel CCU9000
The Egatel CCU9000 is a control unit device that is used to manage other Egatel TV transmission equipment.
About
The Egatel CCU9000 connector will communicate with the device via SNMP, enabling the remote configuration of control parameters of the managed modules (such as digital transmitters and a GPS module).

Installation and configuration
Creation
SNMP Main Connection
This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SNMP CONNECTION:
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
SNMP settings:
- Port number: The IP port of the connected device, by default 161.
- Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device, by default public.
- Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device, by default private.
Usage
General
This page contains general CCU system settings, including the definition of the destination IP addresses and of the Control and Operation modes.
It also allows you to activate or deactivate failure flags and shows the active and inactive CCU system failures.
With the Reset button, you can trigger a reset of the CCU.
Transmitters
This page contains parameters that allow you to configure transmission settings and to monitor the working behavior of the transmitters (time on, etc.).
The page contains several page buttons that open subpages with information related to each of the transmitters. Each of the subpages contains general information for the relevant transmitter, as well as settings such as the channel bandwidth, current output power and power thresholds. There are also toggle buttons available for the transmitter failure flags and the current failure states of the transmitter are indicated.
SDDD
This page displays general power settings, such as the overall Nominal Power value, the Reflected Power and the number of amplifiers being used.
There is also information available regarding the actual power module operation, such as the currently active exciter and the defined Output Power Threshold, and regarding the rack internal temperature and associated turbine info.
The page contains several page buttons:
- The Amplifier page buttons display information on the behavior of each of the power amplifiers, including the power that is produced and transduced, and the internal currents and voltages.
- The Exciters page button displays more information on each exciter (A and B) and the corresponding failure flags and states.
Finally, the page also contains toggle buttons to enable or disable the monitoring of the power module failure states, and the corresponding status values are displayed.
GPS
This page contains the GPS settings and the failure switch and status info.
Notification Table
This page contains a table with the last 100 System Notifications (SNMP traps). The polling of this info can be disabled.
Web Interface
This page displays the web interface of the device. However, note that the client machine has to be able to access the device, as otherwise it will not be possible to open the web interface.
