frequency is used with the Local Oscillator
frequency to calculate the L-Band frequency. The
Downlink and Local Oscillator frequencies can be
used to determine if spectrum inversion occurs
using the following rules. If the Downlink
frequency is less than the Local Oscillator
frequency, then spectrum inversion does occur.
If the Downlink frequency is greater than the
Local Oscillator frequency, then spectrum
inversion does not occur.
Local
The Local Oscillator (L.O.) control specifies the
Oscillator
frequency of the LNB local oscillator. The
standard L.O. frequencies for "C" and "Ku" bands
are 5150MHz and 10750MHz respectfully
although, some other variants are included. If
the desired L.O. frequency is not listed, select
either C: Manual or Ku: Manual and enter the
L.O. frequency in the Manual L.O. field.
Manual LO
Allows manual entry of the LNB Local Oscillator
frequency provided that either C: Manual or Ku:
Manual is selected from the Local Oscillator
pulldown menu.
L-Band
Allows the operator to enter the L-Band
frequency within the range from 950MHz to
2.15GHz. The value entered in this field is used
with the Local Oscillator frequency to calculate
the Downlink frequency using the following rules.
If Downlink < Local Oscillator, then Downlink -
Local Oscillator = │L-Band│. If Downlink > Local
Oscillator, then Downlink - Local Oscillator = L-
Band
Acquisition
Acquisition Range is defined as the range of
Range
frequencies that the tuner will scan in order to
achieve carrier synchronization. Allows the
operator to select the range of frequencies that
the RF tuner will sweep through to acquire the
carrier. e.g. If the desired carrier is at 1.080GHz
and the Acquisition Range is set to 5MHz, the RF
tuner will sweep through 1.080GHz ± 2.5MHz to
acquire the carrier.
LNB Polarity
This control is primarily used in "Universal" LNB
applications. The LNB Polarity control allows for
LNB polarization selection; the 13VDC source will
select the Vertical polarity and the 18VDC source
will select the horizontal polarity. For typical "C"
and "Ku" band applications, the 18 VDC option is
recommended.
LNB Tone
This control is used only for Universal LNB
applications. A universal LNB can route the high
