(SELECT:) Config (Configuration) Menu Branch

The Config (Configuration) Menu Branch provides submenus for configuring the
following Interface, Transmit, and Receive operations:
• Remote (Remote Control) Submenu – The selections here configure
whether the unit is being controlled locally or remotely.
The modem may be monitored over the remote control bus
at any time. When in Local mode, however, configuration
parameters may only be changed through the front panel.
Conversely, when in Remote mode, the unit may be
monitored from the front panel, but configuration
parameters may only be changed via the remote control bus.
• Tx (Transmit) Submenu – The selections here configure, on a parameter-
by-parameter basis, the Tx operation of the unit. For example, use these
submenus if you wish to change only the Tx Frequency.
• Rx (Receive) Submenu – The selections here configure, on a parameter-
by-parameter basis, the Rx operation of the unit. For example, use these
submenus if you wish to change only the Rx Frequency.
• Int (Interface) Submenus – The selections here configure the optional
Data Interface Modules plugged into rear panel Slots 1 or 2. The
submenus change depending on the installed interface – as of this
manual revision, the following interfaces are available:
o Int1 CDI-40 ASI Data Interface.
o Int1 CDI-60 HSSI Data Interface.
o Int2 CDI-70 10/100/1000 Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Data Interface
