Configuration
Connections
Serial main connection
This connector uses a serial connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SERIAL CONNECTION:
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device, e.g. 172.32.65.38.
- IP port: The IP port of the device, e.g. 4001.
- Bus address: Range 64 to 255.
How to use
General Page (Main View - v1.1.1.x)
This page displays general information, such as the Model Number, Firmware Versions, and Control, Operating and Configuration Mode
In all connector ranges except v1.1.1x, a page button allows you to set up the communication settings and amplifier addresses:
Port Baudrate, Parity, Stop Bits, Data Bits
Amplifier 1 (A) Address, Amplifier 2 (B) Address, Amplifier 3 (C) Address Note that these addresses must be filled in to enable the controller to poll generic individual HPA settings (see "HPA 1-3 Alarms Pages").
The amplifier addresses range from 64 to 255 where 64 = @, 65 = A, 66 = B, etc. Each character is referred to by the DEC value. For more information, refer to http://www.asciitable.com/.
In range v1.1.1.x, the page also contains the HPA-A Status, HPA-B Status, Waveguide Switch Status, PSU 1 Status, PSU 2 Status and Reset Faults button.
Control Page (not in v1.1.1.x)
This page displays control parameters for up to 4 switches, 2 attenuators and the RF for up to 3 HPAs connected to the controller.
Status Page (not in v1.1.1.x)
This page displays the general Status of all 3 HPAs, the current Waveguide Switch Status and PSU 1 and 2 Status.
HPA 1 -3 Alarms Pages (not in v1.1.1.x)
These are 3 pages that each represent the main faults and alarms for their respective HPA.
Polling for these 3 pages is disabled by default. Polling will only occur if you toggle the Poll HPA X Alarms parameter to Enabled AND you have provided the amplifier addresses (see "General Page").
If you need more detailed status information or settings for the individual HPAs, use the XTU-400K connector for individual HPA elements.
Display (only in v1.1.1.x)
This page displays the Screen Display and its respective Screen Lines.
