![Chapter 5 Operating2098.0720.72 - 5.1 - E-21 Operating OptionsThe transmitter is controlled using the R&S NetCCU800. The R&S NetCCU800 can be op-erated in the following ways:– Local operation via the display and menu keys on the front panel of the R&SNetCCU800– Operation via the web browser– Monitoring and control via SNMPIf the unit is operated via the web browser of a connected PC/client computer, two modesare possible:– Remote operation via a directly connected PC (connector on front panel)– Remote control via a remotely connected network client (connector on rear panel)1.1 Local Operation1.1.1 Menu KeysFig. 1 Menu operationKey Meaning / functionMENU Starts the menu control function (activation from the system overview); calls a context menu (activation from menu)BACK Cancels an entered value if not confirmed with OK; used to move one step back in the menuHOME Used to return from the menu tree to the system overview.FUNCTION Calls a context menu for the current menu entryOK Confirms an entry or selection](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-7.png)

Press the MENU key.The menu is called. Note When you access the menu system for the first time, you are logged on by default underthe user ID Operation which authorizes you to make settings that directly affect trans-mitter operation. 2. Select the required menu and confirm with OK. The overview for the selected menu is then opened (here NetCCU).STATUS Displays the system logbook (when activated from the sys-tem overview); displays the status screen for a system com-ponent (when activated after selecting a system component from the menu)CURSOR KEYSUsed to move through the menu structure and to highlight menu elements; used to select entriesKey Meaning / function](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-8.png)

![Chapter 5 Operating2098.0720.72 - 5.4 - E-21.1.2.2 Selecting and Editing EntriesThe possibility of changing settings is controlled by a user administration facility with autho-rization system (see the section "User Administration") and a local/remote concept which isvalid for the entire transmitter.Local and Remote operating modesLocal means the transmitter can be configured onsite. Local access is available via the dis-play on the front panel of the R&S NetCCU800 or by PC via the local Ethernet port.Remote means the transmitter can be configured offsite. Remote access is available via theremote port on the transmitter.Since local and remote operation are mutually exclusive, configuration work carried out on-site cannot collide with settings entered remotely. However, it is always possible to viewtransmitter settings.The Local key on the R&S NetCCU800 is used to switch between the local and remote op-erating modes.Locked and variable settingsDepending on the user rights concerned and the type of access (local or remote access)some or all processing parameters can be locked. These include restrictions arising fromthe actual constellation chosen. An appropriate symbol in front of the parameter valueshows whether or not a parameter can be changed at this time.Examples:Symbol MeaningThe present user can change the setting. A change takes effect straight away.The present user can change the setting. For the change to take effect, a restart of the R&S NetCCU800 a) (and possibly the exciter b)) must be carried out.a) To restart the R&S NetCCU800, run the Restart command in the SW Maintenance context menu.b) If the parameter identified in this way is a setting for the exciter (Exciter ..... menu path), the exciter must be restarted and then the R&S NetCCU800. To restart the exciter, run the Reboot Tx command in the Tx Setup context menü (Exciter menu).The setting cannot be changed at the present time. Possible reasons:– The user does not have the necessary rights. c)– Access is via the remote port when the R&S NetCCU800 is in local mode.– Access is local when the R&S NetCCU800 is in remote mode.c) The Info command from the context menu gives information on the necessary user rights among other things.Setting is not possible in this constellation.- none - This parameter value is for a display; it cannot be set.](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-10.png)

Detailed information about this topic can befound under http://www.wikipedia.org/. A description of the unit - the MIB (Management Information Base) - must be loaded in thecentral unit ("manager") from which the transmitters are monitored. A monitored unit contains a program ("agent") which can answer queries from the managerand execute commands. Furthermore, the agent may of its own accord generate a mes-sage and send it to the manager. In this way, the central unit can be informed of a fault. 1.4.1 InstallationThe MIBs required for monitoring and controlling a transmitter are stored as a ZIP archivedirectly in the transmitter control unit and can be downloaded from there using any network-compatible unit. All of the information required for configuration is contained in the MIBsthemselves.When the transmitter is put into operation, both the agent in the transmitter and the manag-er must be configured. Additional steps may be necessary if the transmitter is connectedvia routers, firewalls or similar devices as they may block data packets.The XX8000 transmitter family supports the versions SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.Alarms can be sent as v1Traps, v2Traps or v2Informs.](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-27.png)

![Chapter 5 Operating2098.0720.72 - 5.23 - E-2Note Detailed information about the individual parameters can be found in the descriptions of therespective menu windows.1.4.1.2 Settings on Manager SideTo be able to monitor and control a transmitter with SNMP, the MIB of the device and a pro-gram which can interpret the MIB must be available on the manager side. You can load all available MIBs from any device using a web browser. 1. Log on using the web browser and select the SNMP Administration menu.MIBs from Rohde&Schwarz and IRT are available. MIBs from IRT allow transmitters tobe linked using SNMP irrespective of the manufacturer. They are, however, limited withrespect to their functionality. When using IRT MIBs, you can select the "Inhibit Status"for local operation (in the same way as for the parallel contacts). If this function is acti-vated, no alarms/traps are sent when the transmitter is in local mode. You can activate/deactivate this function using Inhibit Status in the SNMP > General menu window.The MIBs have the naming convention RS-XX8000-<TV/Radio Standard>-<StandbyConcept/Option>-MIB. An example is RS-XX8000-ATV-TX-MIB for signal transmittersfor analog TV. Examples of MIBs and contents:MIB DescriptionRS-COMMON-MIB Contains general Rohde&Schwarz definitionsRS-XX8000-COM-MON-MIBContains definitions which all XX8000 transmitters fulfill (e.g. type plate, configuration)RS-XX8000-DVB-TX-MIBContains definitions for DVB single transmitters, passive exciter standby, active and passive output-stage standbyRS-XX8000-DVB-NP1-MIBContains definitions for DVB n+1 systemsRS-XX8000-DVB-NTX-MIBContains definitions that an R&S NetCCU800 provides as access for n different, independent DVB transmittersRS-XX8000-DVB-TX-REC-MIBContains definitions for the optional DVB receiver in a transmitterRS-XX8000-DVB-NP1-REC-MIBContains definitions for the optional DVB receiver(s) in an n+1 sys-tem RS-XX8000-FM-TX-MIBContains definitions for FM single transmitters with passive exciter standby and active and passive output-stage standby RS-XX8000-FM-NP1-MIB Contains definitions for FM n+1 systemsRS-XX8000-ATV-TX-MIBContains definitions for analog TV single transmitters with passive exciter standby and active and passive output-stage standby](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-29.png)

For que-ries and settings you must set the SNMP version in your manager; the transmitters detectthe used protocol automatically.The following query can be used as a simple test:In the example above, a transmitter with the IP address 10.123.10.7 queries the OID (Ob-jectIdentifier: unique designation of a data point) serialNumber(.1.3.6.1.4.1.2566.127.1.2.167.1.1.1.2). The reply from the agent is 100111.RS-XX8000-ATV-NP1-MIB Contains definitions for analog TV n+1 systemsMIB Description](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-30.png)
![Chapter 5 Operating2098.0720.72 - 5.25 - E-2Using a further test, you can check whether the transmitter sends an alarm message in theevent of an error and whether this message reaches the alarm destinations. To do so, setan OID sendTestTrap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2566.127.1.2.167.1.1.2.3) to the value 2, which triggersa testTrap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2566.127.1.2.167.1.2.0.1). This alarm is sent to all receivers whichhave been entered for the alarms (Trapsinks, see above). This type of fault message functions in a slightly different way than that used for queryingand setting values (default: UDP Port 161 for SET/GET and UDP Port 162 for alarms).The following illustration shows that the testTrap has been received correctly by the unitwith the serial number 100111.

![Chapter 5 Operating2098.0720.72 - 5.84 - E-23.6.2.1 Automatic Input SwitchoverThe exciter has a circuit for automatic switchover from one input to the other following a sig-nal failure, provided that a valid signal is present at the second input. Before a failure oc-curs, the preselected input is active.The mode of this automatic switchover circuit is defined by the following factors:– Automatic: ON or OFF (Autoswitch)– Delay times until switchover (Check Time Forward and Check Time Back)– Priority mode: Inputs have equal priority or the preselected input has priority (Priority)Automatic input switchover ON/OFFIf automatic switchover is OFF, the preselected input remains active even if the input signalfails.If automatic switchover is ON and there is a failure at the preselected input, switchover tothe associated standby input takes place.Priority mode PRIO (input priority)Following a switchover of the preselected input, the automatic system switches back to thispriority input as soon as a signal reappears. Switchover is delayed for the set delay times.If the signal fails at both the operating input and the standby input, the priority input remainsactive.Priority mode EQUAL (equal input priority)Following a switchover of the preselected input, the standby input with the same priority re-mains active until the input signal fails on this input also. The automatic system switchesback to the preselected input, but only if a signal is present on it once again. Switchover isdelayed for the set delay times.Note Selecting this operating mode keeps to a minimum the number of switchover operationsand in certain cases the number of breaks in transmission (in the case of unsynchronizedinput streams).Type of Loss of Input Selection:– Warning: If the input signal fails, only a warning will be generated.– Fault: If the input signal fails, an additional sum fault will be generated after the time set under Fail Delay Time has elapsed. In the case of transmitters with exciter standby, switchover to the second exciter occurs.Fail Delay Time For setting a delay time which must elapse after an input signal dropout before a general fault is generated.Setting item Description](https://usermanual.wiki/Rohde-and-Schwarz/NV830X.User-Manual-Part-2/User-Guide-1672827-Page-90.png)

In actual practice, however, residual carriers arise (e.g. due tocrosstalk). They must be suppressed using suitable correction carriers.The objective of I/Q adjustment is to suppress the undesired center carrier and undesiredcarrier in the sideband with respect to a test carrier by better than 60 dB.Two methods are availableTwo methods are available to perform the I/Q adjustment: setting and testing actuatorsmanually or via a convenient automatic process.The automatic method will usually meet the requirements.
