Revision 9

5.2.1 Alarm Faults

5.2.1.1 Major Tx Alarms

Alarm

Possible Cause

FPGA CFG

Shows a transmit FPGA hardware failure.

DSP CFG

Shows a transmit FPGA failure.

SCT Clock PLL

Shows that the Tx SCT Clock PLL is not locked. This alarm flashes during certain

parameter changes. A steady display shows a problem in the modem configuration.

SYM Clock PLL

Shows that the Tx Symbol Clock PLL is not locked. This alarm flashes during certain

parameter changes. A steady display shows a problem with the incoming clock to the

modem (SCTE).

LB Synth PLL

Shows that the Tx L-Band Synthesizer is not locked. This alarm flashes during certain

parameter changes. A steady display shows a configuration problem in the modem.

Ethernet WAN

Shows that the WAN Port is down.

5.2.1.2 Major Rx Alarms

Alarm

Possible Cause

FPGA CFG

Shows a receive FPGA hardware failure.

DSP CFG

Shows a receive DSP failure.

SIGNAL LOCK

Shows that the demod is unable to lock to a signal.

FRAME LOCK

Shows that the Framing Unit is unable to find the expected framing pattern.

MULTIFRAME LOCK

Shows that the Framing Unit is unable to find the expected framing pattern.

LB SYNTH PLL

Shows that the Rx L-Band Synthesizer is not locked. This alarm flashes during certain

parameter changes. A steady display shows a problem in the modem configuration.

Ethernet WAN

Shows that the WAN Port is down.

5.2.1.3 Minor Tx Alarms

Alarm

Possible Cause

TERR CLK ACT

Shows no Terrestrial Clock activity.

TERR DATA ACT

Shows no Tx Data activity.

TX TERR AIS

Shows that AIS has been detected in the Tx Data Stream.

TX DVB FRAME LOCK Shows that the Tx Input Data Stream Framing does not match the selected Tx Terr

Framing. Incorrect Tx Terr Framing is selected. Incorrectly framed Tx Input Data

Stream exists.
