6.- CONTROLLING THE DEVICE
This version of the QPSK-PAL allows you to
configure it and monitor it via a PC, and can
be either locally or remote controlled.
a.- Local Control
You need the "Headend Management"
program and a special cable (provided with
the said program) that connects a serial port
fo the PC to the "PRGM" connector of the
QPSK-PAL.
Using the program, it is possible to configu-
re and read all of the operating parameters,
as well as check that the device is working
properly. Here you can see a configuration
screen of the QPSK-PAL.
Please note that the configurable parame-
ters are those which can be modified using
59
QPSK-PAL
the remote control. Another advantage is
that you can select the program that you
want by its name.
b.- Remote Control
As well as the program already mentioned,
you also need a Headend Control module
(ref. 5052) and the corresponding modem
that is to be connected to the phone line.
Once you have set up the connection with
the headend control, you can access all the
controlable devices that have been
lled in the headend.
In this case, every element must be
programmed with a different device address
(RS465 address) between 1 and 254.
