    (see SL Command Mode). 6.1 SATEL Configuration Manager software SATEL Configuration Manager is a PC software for the configuration of SATELLINE-M3-R/TR, SATEL-R/TR –module based radio models, covering most of the SATEL radio products. Minimum requirements: SATEL Configuration Manager PC-program COM port with baud rate min.

  • Page 29: Changing Parameters Using Sl Commands

    CR/LF characters are added to end the response messages (unless they are already present) in order to make parsing easier. Settings can be toggled, SL Commands ON/OFF, CR/LF ON/OFF. See Appendix B and C for SL commands. For information of the latest and/or special SL commands please contact SATEL.

  • Page 30: Command Mode

    The SL commands can be disabled or enabled by using SL commands or toggling the “SL Command mode” parameter via the SATEL Configuration Manager, version v1.3.15 or newer. By default the SL Command mode is set to ON. If the SL Command mode is set to OFF then the SL commands can be enabled or disabled by using the below described procedure.

  • Page 31: Serial Interface

    SATEL-TR49 Integration Guide, V 1.7 7 SERIAL INTERFACE The radio modem is referred to as DCE (Data Communication Equipment) whereas the device connected to it, typically a PLC or a PC, is referred to as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment). In order to transfer data, the physical interface between DCE and DTE must be compatible and properly configured.

  • Page 32: Data Buffering

    SATEL-TR49 Integration Guide, V 1.7 7.2 Data buffering Whenever the radio modem is in Data Transfer Mode it monitors both the radio channel and the serial interface. When the terminal device starts data transmission the radio modem switches to transmission mode. At the beginning of each transmission a synchronisation signal is transmitted and this signal is detected by another radio modem, which then switches into receive mode.

  • Page 35: Radio State

    It is not possible to update/change the models NOT supporting the encryption to support this feature in the field. This task can be executed is SATEL factory premises and will be charged according to the service price list. The factory default value for the encryption feature is OFF state.

  • Page 36: Priority Rx/Tx

    SATEL-TR49 Integration Guide, V 1.7 8.5 Priority RX/TX Priority setting selects the priority between reception and transmission. The setting can be changed either with Configuration Manager SW or via SL commands. By default, transmission has higher priority than reception i.e. the default value is Priority TX.

  • Page 37: Tx Delay

    SATEL-TR49 Integration Guide, V 1.7 CRC8 Partial verifies the data in small blocks and they are delivered to DTE as sub messages after validating. Once an error is detected, the rest of the message is ignored. In practice, if the error appears in the middle of the message, the first part is forwarded to DTE and the data in erroneous sub-message and after that will be lost.

  • Page 38: Call Sign

    When TX frequency of the active channel is set to 0, the radio modem operates as receive-only device (in case the value of Rx frequency is valid). Channel lists can be created and utilized by using either SATEL Configuration Manager Software or SL commands. SATEL Configuration Manager software provide a channel list editor (snapshot below) for creating and saving a channel list in the radio modem, or in a file for later usage.

The module will be automatically woken up after the CPU senses a state change in the TD1 pin. Example: The module is in Sleep1- mode. The module is woken up by sending a character or characters into the TD1 pin after which the module responses “OK”.
