Vipersat Configuration

The menu shown in figure 3-20 is used to define and make modifications to the

Remotes that belong to the STDMA group for the Hub burst controller, as well

as to display each Remote’s burstmap status information.

Adding a Remote to the STDMA Group

Entering the item number for the Remote modem/router brings up the dialog

shown in figure 3-21. A prompt to enter the Name for the Remote unit appears,

followed by a prompt to enter the IP Address.

Figure 3-21 Adding a Remote to the STDMA group

Once a Remote has been added to the group, its Status in the group is displayed

by the use of the following letters:

• U = Used – This Remote is being used in the burstmap.

Once a remote has been added to the STDMA group, this status will

always be displayed.

• B = Burstmap – This Remote is currently in the burstmap.

This status will be displayed unless the remote has been removed (R),

disabled (D), or switched (S) out of the STDMA burstmap.

• R = Removed – This Remote is currently removed from the burstmap.

When displayed, this status indicates that the Hub has removed this remote

from the burstmap due to a communications fault.

• D = Disabled – This Remote is currently disabled and is not in the

burstmap.

This status will be displayed when a remote is manually disabled by the

operator or administrator.

• S = Switched – This Remote is currently switched into SCPC mode.

When displayed, this status indicates that the VMS has automatically

switched the remote out of the burstmap and into SCPC operation.

• H = Home State Revert – This Remote is not currently receiving burst

maps. When a remote, stuck in SCPC mode by failure to receive a VMS

revert command, sees the burst map with this flag set, it will automatically

revert to its home state and STDMA mode.
