ROSS MN/13070
Figure 6: Service Bounds example
The service area drawing figure 6 depicts three separate service bounds. SB-1 is configured with
one satellite, while SB-2, 3 are configured under one satellite which may operate from different
hubs or TDM’s from the same hub. This is only one example out of many combinations.
5.3 Edit Properties (IP Address)
The first step in configuring the SA files is to establish IP communication to the ROSS unit for
editing, if this is not possible at this time, the configuration of service areas can be accomplished
without having connectivity to the ROSS unit. It is possible to configure multiple ROSS
databases without making connections. Setting the IP address is part of the configuration file set
and when recalled (open) later will be used to direct upload files to the correct unit. It is
important to logically name each database configuration with a unique name, as an example the
ROSS IP address could be used as part of the file naming strategy.
