ANASAT®-C Quick Start Guide


There’s lots more inside the manual, but here are the most important steps:

1. Mount the transceiver and the LNC on the antenna.


2. Connect the cables as shown in the drawing (See page 2-5).
3. Connect a terminal to a serial port, configured to 1200bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit,
CR/LF Off. Connection diagrams are in Appendix C.
4. Install a proper power connector on the (included) power cable. Plug the cable into 110 or
240VAC, 50/60Hz. Verify the green LED on the transceiver is illuminated, indicating normal
internal operation. The red LED is usually OFF. If illuminated, it indicates an error condition
requiring attention. Refer to the ALARM command for details (Appendix A).
5. Using the terminal, configure the transceiver to the proper frequency:
RXFREQ nnnn (nnnn in MHz —see Appendix E for channel)
TXFREQ nnnn (nnnn in MHz —see Appendix E for channel)

6. Configure receive gain and transmit output power:


RXGAIN nnn nnn ranges from 85 to 100
TXGAIN nn nn ranges from: 10 to 26 [ANASAT-0C] 34 to 70 [ANASAT-2C]
38 to 74 [ANASAT-5C] 41 to 77 [ANASAT-10C]
44 to 80 [ANASAT-20C] 47 to 83 [ANASAT-40C]
7. Enable the Transmitter:
