1.5 New in this release
The following Firmware versions incorporate a number of additional features and
enhancements. These include:
1.4.5 Release
• Adds GPS Mode to permit a Furuno GP-320B GPS receiver to be connected to a
distant-end modem, and for the local end to query, via the EDMAC channel, the
output from the GPS receiver. See document “CDM-570 GPS Mode” for operation
detail.
1.5.1 Release
• CDM-570: FSK Communications to CSAT-5060 and KST-2000A/B Transceivers.
The Transceivers can be monitored and controlled through multiple interfaces
including Modem Front Panel, Serial Remote Port and Base Modem’s Ethernet
Interfaces (HTTP, SNMP and Telnet).
- New remote command “Outdoor Unit Comms Enable (ODU?, ODU=)” is added
to Enable/Disable ODU communication. 0=Disabled, 1=Enabled.
- Modem’s Serial Remote and Telnet interface use Transceivers’ Remote
Commands directly to M&C the Transceivers.
- Two new SNMP MIB files (FW10874-8-.mib and FW10874-9-.mib) are created
to M&C CSAT and KST transceivers.
• High Rate FAST Option: 9980kbps Max Data Rate. Symbol rate is still limited to
3Msps maximum. Front Panel FAST option menu Option 13 is for used. Remote
command Equipment ID (EID?) response is updated to reflect new data rate option:
3=up to 9980 kbps.
• Front panel lockout: Already, when in remote mode, user access of the front panel of
the modem allows viewing of the configuration parameters, but does not allow
changes to the configuration parameters. To make changes via the front panel, the
user must first configure the modem for Local control via the Remote menu. This
front panel lockout (FPL) feature, when activated, prevents or locks-out that ability to
configure the modem into local mode from the front panel. New remote command
FPL is added to enable/disable this feature.
• Supports small Receive Buffer Size: +/-128 bits, +/-256 bits and +/-512 bits. Remote
command Rx Buffer Size (RBS) is update with new options: 7=+/-128 bits, 8=+/-256
bits, 9=+/-512 bits. Existing buffer sizes are not affected.
• Adds SNMP menus to configure SNMP parameters from Front Panel.
