Tredess CS

Tredess CS (Compact Series) is used to ensure the correct functioning of terrestrial and satellite transmitters. Several modules can be plugged into the device, such as the GPS, UCA N+1, UCA, UCA 1+1, DVB-S2/ASI, and IP/ASI module.

This connector retrieves and sets data via SNMP. If this is enabled on the device, SNMP traps can also be retrieved. The connector exports different connectors based on which modules are plugged in.

Configuration

Connections

SNMP Connection - Main

This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:

SNMP CONNECTION:

• IP address/host: 10.145.1.36
• Device address: Not required.

SNMP Settings:

• Port number: The port of the connected device, by default 161.
• Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device. The default value is public.
• Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device. The default value is private.
• Timeout of a single command (ms): The timeout used when the DMA does not receive a response from the device. The default value is 10000. This timeout configuration is necessary because the device responds relatively slowly.

Usage

Because modules can be plugged into the device or removed from it, the possibility to enable/disable polling is available for each module. When the state is set to disable, no data will be polled for this module. When the state changes to enable, data will immediately be polled from the device for the module in question.

General

This is the default page, which displays general information. This includes the name, description, versions, and admin settings.

The following page buttons are available:

• Servers: Edit web server and NTP server settings.
• SNMP: Edit SNMP settings and general trap information.
• Network: Edit default network settings and routing table.

Polling Control

From version 1.0.0.5 onwards, a Polling Control page is available where you can define the polling intervals for the following groups of parameters:

• General
• Network
• SNMP
• Web Server
• NTP Server
• MUX Fast
• MUX Slow
• GPS Fast
• GPS Slow
• Contacts Fast
• Contacts Slow
• UCA N+1 Fast
• UCA N+1 Slow
• UCA 1+1
• DVB-S2/ASI Fast
• DVB-S2/ASI Slow
• IP/ASI Fast
• IP/ASI Slow
• UCA Fast
• UCA Slow

By default, polling for these groups is enabled, and the polling intervals for these groups are the same as in previous versions of the connector: 10 seconds for fast parameters and 1 hour for slow parameters.

In the Polling Table, you can configure the intervals in the Time column, enable or disable the polling in the State column, and poll a specific group on demand in the Refresh on Demand column.

Note: Enabling MUX Slow or Fast enables both parameters since enabling this also enables the DVEs.

Configuration

This page contains an overview of all the modules for which polling can be enabled/disabled. The enable/disable parameters are also displayed on each of the corresponding pages.

The page also provides the possibility to enable/disable the automatic removal of DVE elements for modules that have been removed.

Multiplexer

This page contains information on the Multiplexer module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page contains a table with all the Transmitter DVE elements. When data is polled and there is a new module available, it will be added to this table.

In this table, the description is a combination of the original description of the module and the original index. In case of a new module, this description will be used as the name for the DVE element. It is possible to edit the name of a DVE element in the table, in which case the connector will execute a check before this change is implemented. If the name you want to implement is already in use, the DVE name will remain the original description.

When a module is removed from the device, this will be indicated in the state column as removed. It is then possible to delete the DVE. If you do not delete the DVE and the module becomes available again, the name of the DVE will stay the same and the state will be updated to available. To delete all DVEs that are marked as removed, you can use the Delete All Removed button.

GPS

This page contains information on the GPS module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor the configuration, measurements, and alarm overview for the GPS module.

The following page buttons are available:

• Trap config: Enable/disable several traps of the GPS module.
• Alarm config: Enable/disable several alarms of the GPS module.
• GPS Splitter: Information concerning the splitter.
• GPS Config: Settings for the GPS module.

Contacts

This page contains information on the Contacts module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor the input/output configuration and general information for the Contacts module.

UCA N+1 State

This page contains information on the UCA N+1 module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor general information, priorities, and state information for the UCA N+1 module.

The following page buttons are available:

• Test: Contains a table with test parameters.
• Commutations: Contains a table with commutation information.
• Priorities: Priority values for the UCA N+1 module.

UCA N+1 Compact

This page is used to edit and monitor the general information, compact relays multiplexer parameters, compact relays priorities, compact alarm overview, and multiplexer mute of the UCA N+1 module.

The page contains several page buttons:

• Mutes: Contains a table that can be used to enable/disable relays.
• Relays Priorities: Contains a table with priority values for each relay.
• Relays: Contains a table with information about the relays.

UCA 1+1

This page contains information on the UCA 1+1 module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor general information, multiplexer commutation, and an alarm overview for the UCA 1+1 module.

UCA

This page contains information on the UCA module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor general information, check the alarms overview, enable alarms, enable traps, and configure the alarm level for the UCA module.

DVB-S2/ASI

This page contains information on the DVB-S2/ASI module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor the redundancy configuration, RF input, ASI output, control configuration, and alarm overview for the DVB-S2/ASI module.

The page contains several page buttons:

• Trap config: Enable/disable several traps of the DVB-S2/ASI module.
• Alarm config: Enable/disable several alarms of the DVB-S2/ASI module.
• Control: General information on the DVB-S2/ASI module.
• Redundancy: Redundancy information for each input.

IP/ASI

This page contains information on the IP/ASI module, for which polling can be enabled/disabled.

The page is used to edit and monitor the general configuration, I/O configuration, and alarm overview for the IP/ASI module.

The following page buttons are available:

• Trap config: Enable/disable several traps of the IP/ASI module.
• Alarm config: Enable/disable several alarms of the IP/ASI module.

Web interface

This page displays the embedded web UI of the device. The address of the host/web UI is the same as the polling IP of the element.

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.
