For L-Band: Valid range is 950
–
2000 MHz (in 100 Hz steps).
When entering an IF frequency, the M&C will check the occupied bandwidth
calculated from the data rate, modulation type, code rate and overhead and will
not allow an IF frequency to be entered if the occupied bandwidth falls outside of
the minimum or maximum IF frequencies.
Select Spectrum to counteract frequency converters that invert the spectrum. Use the arrow
keys to select Normal or Invert, and then press [ENT] when done.
