5 Operation
The sat-nms ACU outdoor module is designed to be controlled over a network link using a
standard web browser. This means in practice, that the user interface to the ACU appears in your
browser window after you type in the ACU's IP address in the address field of the browser
program.
Operating the ACU is mostly self-explanatory.
5.1 The Web-based User Interface
After having connected the ACU to a power supply and set the ACU's IP address, you can access
the ACU's user interface. To do this, start your favorite web browser program (Internet Explorer,
Netscape Navigator, Opera or what else program you prefer). At the address field, where you
normally enter the URL of a web page you want to see, type in the IP address of the sat-nms
ACU you want to control.
The ACU shows a web page consisting of a navigation bar at the left side of the browser window
and the actual antenna pointing in the main part of the window. The readings automatically
refresh once a second. The refresh-rate may be adjusted on the setup-page from software
version 2.1.007 or higher.
The navigation bar at the left contains a couple buttons which build the ACU's main menu:
see when you connect to the ACU. This page displays the actual antenna pointing together
with some status information. You also use this page to move the antenna to a certain
pointing given as azimuth / elevation
