Wegener Communications Unity Satellite Receiver Model Unity Synchronous Data Option - Manual (Page 2)

UTY4000-007 2
1. INTRODUCTION
The Unity Sync Data option card provides an IRD with a synchronous data channel output. This
data stream is carried in transport packets whose PID may be assigned in the Wegener UMX4025
at the uplink. This data appears bit-serial on either an RS422 or LVDS output port. The RS422
and LVDS can be activated one at a time or simultaneously.
