Attenuation

Both the Receiver attenuation and the Transmitter attenuation are user
configurable. The receiver attenuation can be selected between 00.00 and 25.00
dB in 0.25 dB increments. The transmitter attenuation can be selected between
00.00 and 25.00 dB in 0.25 dB increments.

Gain Offset

Both the Receiver and the Transmitter Gain Offsets is user configurable. The
Gain Offsets are only used in redundant configurations. The user can use these
parameters to adjust for gain difference between two CSAT Transceivers used
in a 1:1 redundant configuration. The offset can be selected between 0.00 and –
4.00 dB in 0.25 dB increments.

Mute Mode

The CSAT offers two operating modes with regards to frequency changes and
unit muting. The two modes are; 'muted after frequency change' and 'unmuted
after frequency change'.

Associated Remote Command(s):
Example(s):
If the Mute Mode is set to '1', the firmware will leave the IF or RF
muted following a change to either the Downconverter Frequency or
Upconverter Frequency respectively. The operator can then 'unmute'
the unit using the commands in the next section.
If the Mute Mode is set to '0', the firmware will automatically
'unmute' the IF or RF following a change to the Downconverter
Frequency or Upconverter Frequency respectively. This assumes that
the unit was 'unmuted' prior to the frequency change and that there are
no faults following the change. The factory default for this mode is '1'.
