1.0 Introduction

The scope of this document is to define the interface specification that will be used for a new Remote Control based interface to the CDM/CDD family of products. The primary interface is to be Telnet, however other interfaces may adapt to the CIM implementation, programmatically, via specific API calls.

2.0 Architecture

The Remote NMCS attaches to an external interface, such as Telnet, and processes basic text based commands to the CiM database manager. The database manager is responsible for resolving GET and SET actions to Local and Remote objects. (See Figure 1.)

NMCS Protocol

3.0 Introduction

The following sections outline the basic command set supported in this version of the CIM NMCS protocol.

3.1 Telnet interface

Telnet interface into the NMCS system must be on port 7023, which has been reserved for this protocol by the IANA.

The login process requires a name and password, which are defined by the systems administrator of the controlling equipment. This name and password is usually associated to the name and password of an administrator account.

3.2 Basic Protocol

All bytes within a command are printable ASCII characters, less than ASCII code 127. In this context, the Carriage Return (cr) and Line Feed (lf) characters are considered printable.

All messages from controller to target require a response as indicated. This will be either to return data that has been requested by the controller, or to acknowledge reception of an instruction to change the configuration of the target.

Page 6 of 54 MN/CDM570L.AA4

CDM570/570L Satellite Modem MN/CDM570L.AA4 Incorporate NMCS Protocol

3.3.1 Start Of Packet

Controller to Target: This is the character ‘<’ (ASCII code 60)

Target to Controller: This is the character ‘>’ (ASCII code 62)

Because this is used to provide a reliable indication of the start of packet, these two characters may not appear anywhere else within the body of the message. For multi line text message, each line should end with a new line character ‘\n’. The carriage return & new line [\r\n] combination should present only at the end of the message.

3.3.2 Address

Up to 9999 devices can be uniquely addressed. Even though the any number of devices can be addressed, but they all should be associated with single IP Address.

• For a CDM570, address of ‘1’ is being used to address both modulator and demodulator.

• For CDD564, each demodulator is identified by unique address from 1 to 4 respectively for all the four demodulators.

The address is not significant for commands targeted system wide. But, it does has significance when associated with demod specific commands like Frequency, data rate etc.

The controller sends a packet with the address of a target - the destination of the packet. When the target responds, the address used is the same address, to

IMPORTANT

indicate to the controller the source of the packet. The controller does not have its own address.

3.3.3 Instruction Code

This is a three-character alphabetic sequence that identifies the subject of the message. Wherever possible, the instruction codes have been chosen to have some significance.

For example, TFQ stands for Transmit Frequency, RMD is for Receive Modulation type, etc. This aids in the readability of the message, should it be displayed in its raw ASCII form. Only upper case alphabetic characters may be used (A-Z, ASCII codes 65 - 90).

Page 7 of 54 MN/CDM570L.AA4

CDM570/570L Satellite Modem Incorporate NMCS Protocol MN/CDM570L.AA4

3.3.4 Instruction Code Qualifier

This is a single character that further qualifies the preceding instruction code.

Code Qualifiers obey the following rules:

3.3.4.1 Controller to Target

The only permitted values are:

= (ASCII code 61) ? (ASCII code 63)

= Code

? Code

The = code (controller to target) is used as the assignment operator, and is used to indicate that the parameter defined by the preceding byte should be set to the value of the argument(s) which follow it.

For example, in a message from controller to target, TFQ=0950.0000 would mean “set the transmit frequency to 950 MHz.”

The ? code (controller to target) is used as the query operator, and is used to indicate that the target should return the current value of the parameter defined by the preceding byte.

For example, in a message from controller to target, TFQ? would mean ‘return the current value of the transmit frequency’.

Page 8 of 54 MN/CDM570L.AA4

CDM570/570L Satellite Modem MN/CDM570L.AA4 Incorporate NMCS Protocol

3.3.4.2 Target to Controller

The only permitted values are:

= (ASCII code 61) ! (ASCII code 33)

= Code

! Code

If the controller sends an instruction to set a parameter to a particular value, and, if the value sent in the argument is valid, BUT the modem will not permit that particular parameter to be changed at that time, then the target will acknowledge the message by replying (for example) with TFQ! (with no message arguments).

If the controller sends an instruction code which the target does not recognize, then the target will acknowledge the message by echoing the invalid instruction, followed by the ! character. Example: XYZ!

Right now the CDM software is not organized to categorize various error codes, so it combines various errors into a single code (!).

The = code (target to controller) is used in two ways:

First, if the controller has sent a query code to a target (for example TFQ?, meaning ‘what’s the Transmit frequency?’), the target would respond with TFQ=xxxx.xxxx, where xxxx.xxxx represents the frequency in question.

Second, if the controller sends an instruction to set a parameter to a particular value, then, providing the value sent in the argument is valid, the target will acknowledge the message by replying with TFQ= (with no message arguments).

The ! code (target to controller) is only used as follows: If the controller sends an instruction to set a parameter to a particular value, then, if the value sent in the argument is not valid, the target will acknowledge the message by replying (for example) with TFQ! (with no message arguments). This indicates that there was an error in the message sent by the controller.

CDM570/570L Satellite Modem Incorporate NMCS Protocol MN/CDM570L.AA4

3.3.5 Message Arguments

Arguments are not required for all messages. Arguments include ASCII codes for the characters 0 to 9 (ASCII 48 to 57), period (ASCII 46), and | (ASCII 124), plus miscellaneous printable characters.

3.3.6 Table Support Qualifier

In order to support accessing information that is represented in a table, the following syntax is supported.

3.3.6.1 Index

The desired row shall be encapsulated within ‘[‘ and ‘]’ brackets. This option is only applicable for data that is represented as table. For example:

Get a route table entry (will return the contents of the four route table entry):

<1/RTE[4]?

Get a the entry route table (will return the contents of the four route table entry):

$NumEntries = <0/RTN?

for($I=1, $I<$NumEntries, $I++) { entryInfo[$I] = <0/RTE[$I]? }

To add a new route table entry:

$NumEntries = <0/RTN? $NewRouteEntry = $NumEntries + 1

<1/RTE[$NewRouteEntry]= rt4|239.011.033.022.32|1|192.168.001.221|00ab|1|0|1|4|3

To modify an existing route table entry:

<1/rte[1]= rt4|239.011.033.022.32|1|192.168.001.221|00ab|1|0|1|4|3

CDM570/570L Satellite Modem MN/CDM570L.AA4 Incorporate NMCS Protocol

3.3.6.2 Argument lists

In order to enforce atomic reads and writes and well as allow for checking related parameter for validity, multi-argument lists will have the following format:

• Arguments are positioned in fixed length format (see specification for each argument)

• ‘|’ Is used to separate different argument values from each other.

3.3.7 End Of Packet

Controller to Target: This is the ‘Carriage Return’ character (ASCII code 13).

Target to Controller: This is the two-character sequence ‘Carriage Return’, ‘Line Feed’. (ASCII code 13, and code 10.)

Both indicate the valid termination of a command.

3.4 Modem Commands

Unless otherwise specifically called out in the IP Commands section, the remaining commands are provided as part of the base modem command set and are defined in the CDM-570L modem manual.

Reusing of route names with different index, will endup modifying the existing route. d = Destination IP Address in xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yy where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is IP address and yy – Subnet mask bits. To mean ‘Any IP Address’ indicate it by ***.***.***.***/** format. D = Destination Subnet Mask Bits. i = Interface 1 – Sat and 0 – Ethernet n = Next Hop IP Address in xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format. To be valid the next hop should be on the same subnet as the router IP Address. This field will be all ‘*’ for a ‘SAT’ directed route. It means, for a route with valid HDLC address this field will be ‘***************’. h = HDLC Addr in 4-digit hexadecimal number. Valid range is 0x00 to 0xFE in Router-Small Network mode. And 0x0000 to 0x7FFE for Router-Large Network mode. This field will be all ‘*’ for ‘ETH’ directed route. It means, if the route has a valid next-hop, then this field is ‘****’ [meaning HDLC Address is not Used.]. HDLC Address is not used in point-to-point mode, may default to ‘1’. t = Header Compression 0 – No 1 – Yes. p = Payload Compression 0 – No 1 – Yes. c = DES Encryption 0 – No 1 – Yes. k = DES Key to use 0 – Don’t use any key 1 – 8 use as mentioned and 9 – Use Random key.

Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION

Figure 1-1. CDM-570/570L

1.1 Introduction

The CDM-570L is an L-band Satellite Modem, intended for closed network applications. The CDM-570 Satellite Modem is the 70/140 MHz IF version of the same modem. Apart from the IF frequency band, the two modems are essentially identical.

• Variable data rates from 2.4 kbps to 9.98 Mbps, in BPSK, QPSK, Offset QPSK, 8PSK, 8-QAM, and 16-QAM modes are offered.

• Viterbi, concatenated Reed-Solomon (RS), Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM), and Turbo Product Coding (TPC, IESS-315 compliant) are provided as Forward Error Correction (FEC) options.

• A full range of interface types is built in, including T1 and E1 G.703 types.

• The CDM-570 IF frequency range covers 50 to 90 and 100 to 180 MHz.

• The CDM-570L IF frequency range covers 950 to 1950 MHz. and supports external

Block Up-Converters (BUCs) and low-noise block downconverters (LNBs). An optional BUC power supply, up to 150 Watts may be installed internally. 10 MHz reference signals are available to drive both BUC and LNB. LNB power and FSK for ‘smart’ BUCs is standard.

• The CDM-570L is compact, 1U high and 16 inches deep, and consumes only 22 Watts (typical, not including BUC power supply or IP module). The CDM-570 is 12 inches deep and consumes 18 Watts (typical, not including IP module).

• They have a front panel VFD display and keypad for local configuration and control, although they can be fully remote-controlled.

• An optional integrated 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface offers a wide range of network-based management options, such as SNMP, http (web server), and Telnet.

CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 4 Introduction MN/CDM570L.IOM

1.1.1 EDMAC

To facilitate network management for small networks, the CDM-570/570L incorporates EDMAC, (Embedded Distant-end Monitor And Control). In this mode, an additional 5% overhead is combined with the traffic data, (1.6% in Turbo BPSK modes, Turbo Rate 1/2 QPSK/OQPSK, and all data rates greater than 2 Mbps). M&C information is added (transparent to the user), allowing access to the distant-end modem. In addition, EDMAC-2 uses 1.6% overhead in all modes for those applications where the 5% overhead is excessive. The EDMAC and EDMAC-2 modes do not require any additional cabling at either the local or distant-end Modems. Access to EDMAC is via the standard M&C control port. Full monitor and control is possible, and the on/off status at the distant-end carrier can be controlled.

1.1.2 AUPC

An important feature in the CDM-570/570L is the addition of Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC). This feature enables the modem to automatically adjust its output power to maintain the Eb/No of the remote end of the satellite link constant. This provides protection against rain fading, a particularly severe problem with Ku-band links.

To accomplish this, the framed (EDMAC) mode of operation must be used, and the distant end modem constantly sends back information about the demodulator Eb/No using reserved bytes in the overhead structure. Using the Eb/No, the local modem adjusts its output power, and a closed-loop feedback system is created over the satellite link.

A benefit of this feature is that whenever EDMAC/AUPC operation is selected, the remote demodulator’s Eb/No can be viewed from the front panel display of the local modem. Note that both EDMAC and AUPC can be used simultaneously.

1.1.3 Software – Flash Upgrading

The internal software is both powerful and flexible, permitting storage and retrieval of up to 10 different modem configurations. The modem uses ‘flash memory’ technology internally, and new firmware can be uploaded to the unit from an external PC. This simplifies software upgrading, and updates can be sent via the Internet (from Comtech EF Data’s Web server), e-mail, or on CD. The upgrade can be performed without opening the unit, by simply connecting the modem to a 10/100BaseT Ethernet port, or the USB port of a computer.

USB re-flash not available in this firmware release – please consult factory for release schedule.
