Typically better than 0.1dB RMS signal degradation after tracking for 24 hours (with tracking signal), for orbit
inclinations up to 10°
Typically better than 0.1dB RMS signal degradation over 72 hours (after loss of tracking signal), for orbit
inclinations up to 10°
Model data is stored in EEPROM and the real time clock supported by battery backup against power failure
Configuration data is stored in EEPROM
May be derived from an external tracking receiver or optionally from the integral IBR-L beacon receiver
Voltage varying directly with received signal strength (in dB).
Sensitivity 0.1V / dB to 1.0V / dB
Offset + / - 10 volts max
Lost Lock input, contact closure when tracking signal is lost.
2 line LCD display giving the areas of information:
Azimuth angle Signal strength Elevation angle
Diagnostics Polarization angle
Mode of operation Operational menus
36VDC, up to 8A for direct drive of DC actuator motors
Limit switch inputs for elevation, azimuth and polarization. Contacts normally closed
Inputs for standard resolver position transducers
OPTIONS
Internal IBR-L Beacon Receiver
This option accepts an L-Band signal, with an input level of -80 to -45dBm.
The signal voltage and lock lost indicators are generated internally. The need for an external beacon
receiver is eliminated.
IBM PC compatible software is available to provide a remote control terminal function. The terminal
monitors and controls the INTRAC via the standard serial remote control port and provides facilities for
managing and storing multiple orbit models. Alarm information is still available at the front panel.
Option to accept a polarization position transducer and to drive a 36VDC polarization motor.
