ROSS

4.14 Unit Status Page

The status page shows the communication state of the modem, ACU, last reported position,
transmit condition and ROSS unit up time. All displayed value requires manual Refresh to query
the latest information or you can select Automatic where the values are updated every 5 seconds.
The top status bar is automatically updated with the current service area/service bound and
modem transmit statue. There is also a Reset that will clear the ACU and Modem Status resetting
to zero state, starting both polls at 1/1.

4.15 Transmit Status

On the top menu bar right side indicates 'enable' or 'disable' of the set value in the TEK
message sent to the modem. The enable indication may not be the true state of modulator
transmission because of external controls, e.g. ACU hardware control signal or modem internal
logic that can override ROSS. This value 'enabled' represents that ROSS is in a valid service
area and communication poll status of modem an ACU are successful. If disabled the modulator
transmit carrier is muted regardless of any other controls.

4.16 Last Position

This position retrieved from the most recent ACU poll. This value is expressed in longitude and
latitude in decimal degrees. If the reported position is within a coordinated area, the coordinated
area ID will be displayed adjacent to the coordinates. ROSS polls the ACU for position on a 5
second interval. This value is updated by the Refresh command.
