  • Page 4: Description

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 1 Description The DF-Control System converts the serial data from the DF-Channels into Ethernet data for the transmission via LAN. For the RT-1000 Multichannel direction finder system a special configured MOXA NPort 8/16 channel device is in use, to make it possible, to access the Direction Finder Channels anywhere over a local LAN or the Internet.
  • Page 5: Initial Ip Address Configuration

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 2 Initial IP Address Configuration To access the Direction Finder Control System (MOXA NPort) from remote, it is common to use static IP & Port addresses. For this the MOXA device itself can be configured to a static IP address or, which is normally the better solution, to configure the router in the local network with a DHCP reservation to allocate the Direction Finder Control System identified by its MAC address to a fixed/static IP address.
  • Page 6: Web Console Configuration

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 3 Web Console Configuration A standard Web Browser/Console is the most user-friendly method available to configure and check the actual MOXA NPort device settings and test the RT-1000 network connectivity. You can use as example Google Chrome or the Microsoft Internet Explorer. With the exception of custom specific IP address, the MOXA NPort 5600 device is already correctly pre-configured by RHOTHETA for the use with the RT-1000 Multichannel direction finder.

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 3.3 Serial Settings • Baud rate = 1200 • Data bits • Stop bits • Parity = Odd • Flow control = None • FIFO = Disable The settings above are valid and mandatory for all connected DF-Channels. Remark: Serial Port 1 is internally connected to DF-Channel No.

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 3.4 Operating Settings and TCP Port No. • Operation Mode = TCP Server Mode • TCP alive check time = 1 (min) If the connected PC software application crashes or the LAN connection is interrupted, then the TCP is closed after 1 min automatically and so on no more “blocking”...
  • Page 10 RT-1000 MC DF Control System • Packing length • Delimiter 1 = “a” and each DF-Channel data message ends with …[LF] = 0x0a • Delimiter 2 = Off • Delimiter process = Do Nothing • Force transmit With the settings above, each RT-1000 DF-Channel serial output data message is packed within one TCPIP data package.
  • Page 11: Additional Information For Service & Maintenance / Troubleshooting

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 3.5 Additional Information for Service & Maintenance / Troubleshooting 3.5.1 Monitor Line Function The Monitor Line page shows all actually connected remote control sites for each channel. Please remember, that different sites can be connected to different DF-Channels. In the example below, one remote control site PC is connected to all 4 existing DF-Channels simultaneously and one other PC is connected to only one DF-Channel.
  • Page 12: Monitor Async Function

    RT-1000 MC DF Control System 3.5.2 Monitor Async Function When a DF-Channel is connected to a remote control site (active TCPIP connection), then the incoming DF-Channel data are shown. RxCnt counts only incoming DF channel data, if the connected TCPIP port is active, which means if a remote control site is connected to this port / DF-Channel.
