Setting
Use the  arrow keys to select On or Off. Press [ENT] when done.
To edit the Power Level from –40 dBm to +10 dBm in 0.1 dB steps:
1. Key in the desired number using the keypad –or–
2. Select the digit to be edited using thearrow keys, and then change the value of that
digit by using the  arrow keys.
3. Press [ENT] when done.
Use the  arrow keys to select Normal, RTS, or VSAT. Press [ENT] when done. Note the
following:
• RTS (Request to Send) is an interface signaling control. If enabled, RTS can be used to
control the output state of the modulator. Only available when using either the EIA-530 or
HSSI interface.
• When VSAT is selected, the output state of the modulator is controlled by the demodulator
carrier detect status. Modulator output will be enabled when the demodulator is detected,
and disabled otherwise.

Setting
Use the  arrow keys to select SCT or Tx-Terr. Press [ENT] when done. Note the following:
• SCT (Send Clock Timing) – Selected as an output to provide a clock reference for the user.
• Tx-Terr – Provides transmit clock input on the selected data interface.
Use the  arrow keys to select Reference, DataSrcSync, or LoopTiming. Press [ENT]
when done. Note the following:
• Reference – SCT will be generated from the modem's 10 MHz reference (this could be
derived from and external reference if selected).
• DataSRCSync (Data Source Synchronization) – No clock is provided on the interface and a
clock is generated such that it is phase locked to the incoming data stream.
• LoopTiming – The clock generated from the received carrier is used as a reference for
generating SCT.
