Level of encoding the router can accept based on the current signal
quality. Lower Modcod numbers are used if signal impairments such
as rain are present. Adaptive coding and modulation (Modcod) is
a Hughes-developed technique that maximizes over-the-air
bandwidth utilization.
You can check the Receive Status parameter to find out if the receive data path is operational
or if there is a problem. Normal receive status is indicated by the message Receiver operational.
(RxCode 5).
The following two illustrations show how you can view a list of all RxCodes or see an explanation
of the currently displayed RxCode. Each RxCode—except RxCode 5—indicates a specific
problem in the receive path.
