Delete Mode - Dawn CONTROL-1500A Manual

CONTROL-1500A Single Axis Antenna Controller
JAMMED
Indicates that the antenna was commanded to move about the axis and no movement
was detected by the controller. This indicates either that the antenna did not move
when commanded to do so, or the sensor failed and the controller was not able to
detect any movement (antenna or polarization).
RUNAWAY
The drive was deactivated because the processor sensed movement when the antenna
was not commanded to move. Runaway sensing is not implemented for the polarization
axis. This error is rarely caused by an actual runaway condition (the antenna moving on
its own). This error is usually caused by a faulty sensor or noise pickup due to the
sensor shield not being connected properly. See Chapter 3 for shield connection
instructions.
DRIVE
The axis was deactivated due to an overcurrent condition (antenna and RC2KHPP
polarization option).
SENSOR
This error will occur if the antenna commands a polarization movement, and movement
is detected in the wrong direction. Note that a polarization jammed condition will
occasionally register as a sensor error. Polarization movement in the wrong direction
should only occur during setup (polarization axis only).
Note that the antenna and high power polarization (RC2KHPP only - not the RC2KPOL option)
axis are also protected from over-currents by a circuit breaker located on the back panel of the
controller. If the circuit breaker opens, the controller will report a JAMMED condition.

DELETE Mode

POS
SELECT SATELLITE
GALAXY 6
This mode is used to delete a satellite entry. This mode can only be activated if the Expert
Access flag is set. Refer to section 2.5 for more information on the Expert Access system. To
delete a satellite from the controller's non-volatile memory:
1. Proceed to DELETE mode.
2. Scroll through the ASSIGNED satellite names.
3. When the desired satellite name is shown, press ENTER. The system will display the
following message for a few seconds and return to the active Delete mode screen.
