Connection Status |
General status of the ICM’s built-in modem: •Online – Modem is connected to the mini-VSAT Broadband service; the system is ready for use •Offline – Modem is not connected to mini-VSAT Broadband SNR: Quality of the received satellite signal; SNR = Signal level/background noise in decibels |
No-Transmit Zones (if zones are set up) |
Status of the no-transmit zones: •Transmit Enabled (green) – Antenna is not pointing within a no-transmit zone •Transmit Disabled (orange) – Antenna is pointing within a no-transmit zone; zones are being enforced •Transmit Enabled (red) – No-transmit zones are being ignored; antenna can transmit without restriction |
Antenna State |
General status of the antenna: •Tracking •Initializing •Searching •Cable Unwrap – Unwrapping the internal cable; the cable can wrap up to 710° •Waiting for Modem •Idle •Error |
Satellite |
Satellite that the modem has currently selected for tracking |
Beam |
Which beam of the tracked satellite the antenna is currently using; also indicates whether the beam is Ku-band or C-band |
