Chapter 5. MODEM AND

OPTIMIZER CONFIGURATION

5.1

Modem Configuration

Tune the modem to the desired operating frequency within the 50-90 MHz or 100-180 MHz
range. Refer to the modem manufacturer’s documentation if necessary.

5.1.1

Verify Link without Carrier-in-Carrier®

Prior to installing the CLO-10, it is suggested that the tuning changes from the previous step be
verified on the link. This will require coordination from both the transmit and receive stations.

The link should be verified using your standard link setup and verification process. This step
ensures that the modem, up converter and downconverter are correctly configured. Once this step
is completed and the link established, the CLO-10 can then be inserted in the signal path.
