Parameter Description

COOL/HEAT TEC:
For example, in “HEAT TEC: 0.4a”, when the ambient temperature of the laser is less than 25℃, the built-in semi-conductor HEAT pipe starts to work, and the current flowing through it is the heating current. When the ambient temperature is more than 25℃, the built-in semiconductor refrigeration tube starts to work, and the current flowing through it is the refrigeration current, and the heating or cooling current 0 ~ 2A is normal.

LASER POWER:
For example, “LASER POWER: 10.1DBM”, this parameter is the actual optical POWER corresponding to the PD tube of the built-in LASER and the MCU control circuit. The error between the displayed value and the output POWER is normal.

LASER CURR:
For example, “LASER CURR: 85.0mA” is the working current value of the LASER, and 60-100mA is normal.

LASER TEMP:
For example, the “LASER TEMP: 25.1 C”, this parameter is the working temperature inside the LASER module. It can be quickly controlled at 20-30 ℃ when starting up and within 25℃±1 minute later.

POWER1/2 5V -5V:
For example, in “POWER1 5V: 4.9V”, this parameter is that the operating voltage of the local power supply 1.5V is 4.9V online, and the difference between it and the nominal voltage ±0.5V is normal.

FAN STATE:
For example, “FAN STATE: AUTO” indicates that the FAN works in the STATE of AUTO. AUTO is set at >35 ° c when the chassis temperature is lower than 35 ° c, it will automatically turn on the FAN, and automatically turn off the FAN when the chassis temperature is lower than 35 ° c. “OFF” means OFF, and “ON” means ON.

EQU TEMP:
For example, the “EQU TEMP: 29.8C”, this parameter represents the online temperature of the whole machine.

OMI CONTROL:

AGC:
This parameter is used to indicate that the machine is on in AGC. INPUT RF: For example, “INPUT RF: 82.0 dBuv”, this parameter represents the online level value of the local RF INPUT, which is related to the set value of channels. When the number of channels corresponds to the actual level error of ±2dB, it is normal.

RF CHANNELS:
If “RF CHANNELS: 60”, this parameter represents the number of CHANNELS after the machine is set.

LASER WAVE:
For example, the “LASER WAVE:1550.52nm”, this parameter represents the wavelength value of light after the machine is set, which has been set when the product is released from the company.

Directions for use
This machine electricity before you should check whether the mains power supply voltage is within the scope of 90 ~ 255 V (DC power supply – 48 V), the grounding resistance of the grounding line should be less than 4 Ω, the RF input signal level is in the 75 ~ 85 dbuv, and shielding network for voltage is close to zero volts. When meeting the above conditions can be POWER ON, then ENTER the “LASER POWER OFF” LASER lock button switch for the OFF state, according to the LASER ON/OFF key, then press ENTER to confirm, the LCD displays ” BD-OP-SAT-15″ said this machine has entered the normal working state, such as panel Alarm red light flashing, said the machine is a parameter is not in conformity with the conditions, such as RF signal no input or small, the POWER 1 didn’t open (with POWER 2), LASER current, temperature overrun and so ON. At this point, press MENU to CHECK. If the suffix of query parameter is “~”, it means that the content parameter or fault item parameter does not conform to it. If the single power supply 1 or 2 works, it will also appear sound and light alarm. When the double power supply works, the content of this item will no longer alarm, and the alarm will stop automatically after being maintained for 1 minute, so as not to increase the noise source of the machine room.

WEB Management Function(optional)

The optional status monitoring transponder ensures compatibility with SCTE HMS standards. Native RJ45 interface in the rear panel, or a PC or LAN connection switch, the unit’s IP address, subnet mask, the address of the server, and installed position information to register in the HFC network management system application software, and then use network management system platform of query system access to the machine working condition, the related parameters are error within 2.5% is normal.

The notes about optical connection

Attention:
Before you connect them, carefully clean all the fiber optic connectors and connectors

Cleaning Guide

Removal of the dust cap of the fiber optic connector, pay attention to confirming the optical connector is an APC surface;
The tips for cleaning fiber optic connectors is to use a dedicated and dry cloth without velveteen (the company 5Kimwipes ®’s fine cloth); In addition, preferably adopt a special microscope (100 times, 200 times) to check the cleanliness of fiber optic connector surface or blemish. pay attention to maintaining the fiber optic connectors is clean;

Cleaning the fiber optic connectors (flange):
you can use a dedicated compressed gas to clean the surface of the fiber optic connector;
you can remove the dust which is less than 0.2 microns, better without residue; hold the tank of compressed air from the connector about 6 inches, align the flange, and press the nozzle switch shortly times,so you can clean the connector completely; if there is no dedicated compressed air, the 2.5 mm cotton swab for cleaning can also be used to clean the optical transmitter connectors, or remove the flange and clean the optical fiber jumper connector of the other side directly.

Note: When handling fiber optic connectors must be very careful to avoid damage.

Using the optical fiber jumper to connect the output of the optical transmitter to the optical power meter; the connectors of the Optical Power Meter must match each other. Using the optical power meter to check the output of the transmitter’s optical power is within normal limits;

Other notes
