1.1.2 Description
Figure 1-3. SNM-1010L Control/Traffic Mode
The SNM-1010L (Figure 1-3) functions as a self-contained indoor unit (IDU) for sites that require a single data circuit on-demand. When coupled with a Block Up Converter (BUC), Low-Noise Block Converter (LNB), and an antenna, it provides an Earth Station configuration. Operating under the Network Management System (NMS) control, it provides Control and Traffic modes, switching between the two modes as required. In the control mode, the SNM-1010L provides the interface to the NMS.
The modulator, operating in Burst mode, is tuned to the inbound control channel and the demodulator, operating in the Continuous mode, is tuned to the outbound channel. Under NMS control, the SNM-1010L performs circuit setup and termination, local M&C, diagnostics, and reports call detail records. This mode of operation is known as Control Mode.
To transmit or receive a call, the SNM-1010L switches to the traffic mode. While carrying user traffic, the modem operates in Continuous TX and RX modes, and is capable of supporting data rates up to 5.0 Mbps. Once the traffic connection is terminated, the modem automatically reconfigures and reverts back to control mode.
The user port interface can be used to request services from the NMS. It also can be used for TX and RX service terminal messages, installation, and diagnostics, as well as software upgrades.
1.1.2.1 User Port
The user port interface allows the user to configure the modem and to request establishment and termination of data circuits.
The user port is also used for software upgrades. User port commands are available to change the user port to a maintenance (service) port and vice-versa. The power ON default functionality is that of user port.

The modem is available with a female Winchester V.35 as the data I/O connector. There is a jumper on the unit that either opens or closes the CC line. The interface is shipped with jumpers in positions 2 and 3, because:
1. Comtech EF Data has determined that several locations use Fireberd test equipment and a conflict will occur if CC is connected between the modem and the Fireberd.
2. Placing the jumper in positions 2 and 3 opens up the CC line, because the TTC/Fireberd test equipment interfaces use the line for DTE/DCE control.
3. Grounding pin CC at the Fireberd interface will change the Fireberd to a DCE device.
4. Comtech EF Data uses the CC and DD for the input master clock (same as the external clock input to the modem). To input an external clock, change the jumper to positions 1 and 2 (the pin closest to the Winchester connector).

The modem stores the first 10 (Flt0 through Flt9) occurrences of fault status changes in each of the following major fault categories:
Modulator
Demodulator
Transmit Interface
Receive Interface
Common Equipment
Each fault status change is stored with the time and date of the occurrence of the fault. Stored faults may be viewed by entering the stored faults level from the Select menu.
Stored faults are not maintained through controller power-on reset cycle. However, the last known time is maintained in nonvolatile Random Access Memory (RAM). On power-up, a common equipment fault is logged (Flt0) with that last known time and date. In addition, on power-up, an additional common equipment fault is logged (Flt1) to indicate the power-up time and date. The power-down and power-up times are logged as common equipment fault 0 and common equipment fault 1, respectively.
On entering the stored faults level, press [] or [] to move between the fault groups and the “Clear Stored Faults ?” selections. The time and date of the first stored fault status (Flt0) for the selected group will be displayed alternately on line 2 of the display. Press [] or [] to cycle through the selected group has stored fault status (Flt0 through Flt9). To display the fault status associated with the displayed time and date, press [ENTER]. To identify the fault, press [] or [] to move the flashing cursor. To clear the currently logged stored faults, press [ENTER] when the “Clear Stored Faults/Yes?” selection is displayed.
Note: Faults are stored in time sequence, with the oldest fault status change stored in Flt0, and the most recent in Flt9. Only the first 10 fault status changes are stored. All stored faults, which have not been used, indicate “No Fault” on the display.
