Comments
This is a summarized state. Up indicates satellite modem is
healthy and able to transmit and receive. Down indicates the
modem is not healthy or is unable to transmit because of its
configuration.
The NOCC may put the satellite modem in a suspended state,
meaning user data traffic is suspended, but management traffic
between modem and NOCC is not affected.
The NOCC may put the modem in these states.
In Service – No restrictions.
Out of Service and Maintenance – User data traffic is blocked;
management traffic between modem and NOCC is restricted
(no unsolicited messages may be sent to the NOCC).
Up – Modem is able to transmit data to the satellite.
Up – Modem is able to receive data from the satellite.
The ECL function ensures that the modem uses a transmit
power that falls within acceptable limits for correct operation
of the terminal.
Disabled – Checks are disabled.
Tx Allowed – Modem is not being restricted by ECL.
Tx Prevented – Modem is being restricted for short periods of
time, in seconds, and is not transmitting to the satellite.
Receive signal strength as measured by the modem.
