Disaster Recovery

Uplink Profile Settings

Once the receiver detects a failure after the configured signal loss timeout (defined
by the uplink), it will initiate a disaster recovery using the PNC uplink Disaster
Recovery Profile settings. If the PNC uplink is set to allow local disaster recovery,
the disaster recovery profile setting on the unit determines the disaster recovery
setting to use (local or uplink). If the PNC uplink does not allow local disaster
recovery, the uplink disaster recovery profile is used, even if the disaster recovery
profile setting on the unit is set to local. If the unit is not connected to the PNC
uplink, an error message is triggered and it will use the local disaster recovery
settings, if enabled.
During a disaster recovery, the PNC sends the Disaster Recovery Table (DRT) to the
receiver, along with the backup locations. The DRT is a table of data structures sent
from the PNC to the unit through the satellite uplink. For more information on the
uplink disaster recovery, contact your PNC uplink administrator.
By default, the disaster recovery is enabled. To set up and view the disaster recovery
parameters using the front panel, see Setup Menu: DR and Status Menu - DR. To set
up and view the disaster recovery parameters using the web GUI, see Configuring
the Disaster Recovery Settings (on page 170) and Viewing the Disaster Recovery
Status (on page 174).
