Calibrated Data Rate

This menu item is for information only and displays the Calibrated Data Rate
in kbps for the target CDM-570/570L. This value is pulled from the Home
State, and is the base value data rate from initial configuration and commission-
ing.
There is a proportional relationship between data rate and power level; as the
data rate increases, there is a corresponding increase in transmit power level,
and vice versa.

Nominal Power Level

This menu item is for information only and displays the Nominal Power Level
in dB for the modulator. This value is pulled from the Home State and will vary
as the data rate varies.

DPC Margin

The DPC Margin setting governs the upper power limit for all combinations of
waveforms given.
Enter M at the command prompt to set the DPC Margin.

Max Data Rate

The Max Data Rate setting corresponds to the highest achievable data rate that
was determined by the site link budget calculation.
Enter D at the command prompt to set this value.

Max Code Rate

The Max Code Rate setting corresponds to the highest achievable code rate
that was determined by the site link budget calculation.
Enter C at the command prompt to set this value.

Max Modulation

The Max Modulation setting corresponds to the highest achievable modulation
that was determined by the site link budget calculation.
Enter O at the command prompt to set this value.

Max FEC Type

The Max FEC Type setting corresponds to the highest achievable FEC type
that was determined by the site link budget calculation. Only the Turbo setting
