center frequency.

SATELLINE-3AS(d) Epic NMS 400-470 MHz - 12.5 kHz / 20 kHz / 25 kHz
Note: the tuning range of SATELLINE- 3AS Epic NMS is ±1MHz from the
nominal center frequency.

SATELLINE-3AS(d) VHF 138–174 MHz and 218-238 MHz -12.5 kHz / 25 kHz
Note: the tuning range covers the whole radio board range (138 – 160, 155 –
174 or 218 – 238 MHz)

SATEL NMS provides useful tools for maintaining the radio network. The following functions are included in the SATEL NMS system:

• Status of the network can be obtained easily. Received Signal strength (RSSI)
information, Voltage, Temperature and quality of the radio links can be monitored
without disturbing user’s data flow. SATEL NMS PC software collects statistics on the radio modems of the network.
• Alarms (triggered e.g. by a significant decrease in signal level of a radio link) are generated for the external system usage.
• The history of the parameters is saved to log files for later examination.
• Remote update of the setup i.e. the settings of a radio modem.
• Data communication tests. A full data communication test can be run to find out more detailed analysis of each radio link. Whenever needed this test indicate
profoundly the quality of the radio communication.

SATEL NMS fits the systems that are:

• Single master systems with point-to-multipoint network structure
• Based on polling protocol (the master polls the slaves regularly)
• Transferring user messages not larger than 1kByte

NOTE! SATELLINE-3AS NMS / Epic NMS / VHF radio modems do not include an analogue RSSI signal - it is a special hardware assembly option that must be specified in the order.

Diversity reception

SATELLINE-3AS(d) Epic NMS model has two antenna connectors, one solely for reception and the other for both reception and transmission. Diversity reception means that the radio modem selects the best signal from both those received by the two antennas. In this way the reliability of the connection is improved especially in those cases, which are subject to a high level of
reflections and multipath fading.

SATELLINE-3AS NMS can operate in one of the following network protocol modes, which determine the way the radio modem handles and buffers data:
o Basic - RX Priority (transmit after receive)
o Basic - TX Priority (transmit immediately)
o Basic - Repeater (store & forward all)
o Advanced - Master (routing supported)
o Advanced - Slave (routing supported)

8.3.3 Protocol support
Using the internal Packet filter feature the radio modem catches and transfers only the wanted messages/protocols - NMS also enables easy addition of higher level functions, like alternative routes and alarms in future development. The list of preset protocols includes for example:
o User defined
o Modbus ASCII
o Modbus RTU
o Rockwell DT1
o IEC60870-5-101
o DNP 3.0
o ANSI
o SATELLINK
