System
Control
The iPump 562 IRD is most often controlled via the WEGENER Compel Control System.
This system is managed at the uplink site, sending a control stream with the usual audio
and video data streams. The
Compel System addresses units, and commands them to
perform various functions.
Among its functions is the ability to enable or limit aspects of local control. Also, Compel has
the ability to mute the audio and video of an IRD if it is inadvertently tuned to a frequency it
is not authorized to receive.
If an RF Switch option module is installed, Compel controls which of the four RF feeds is
being processed. For more information on this, see the
Compel Manual, or contact your
service provider.
There are four levels of control via Compel. These levels are:
No Local Control - Push-buttons disabled
Read Only - No changes permitted
Limited - Changes may be made to Carrier Presets (pre-loaded values) only
Full - Full Local Control
