1INTRODUCTION

This document describes the processes and procedures for configuring a COM1000 system. The

following sections will provide a brief overview of the system hardware, an in-depth guide to the

COM24 user interface, and descriptions of certain system processes. Also included are several

indices that cover common troubleshooting problems.

It is recommended that you read through the entirety of the manual, or at least review the main

sections before working with the system, as it contains some important pointers that may come in

handy during setup and maintenance.

The table below provides an explanation of some useful terms and device names that will be

referred to throughout the manual. You should use these terms to familiarize yourself with the

different aspects of the system before proceeding any further.

Table 1 –Definition of Terms

Term

Definition

COM1000

This is the complete system, consisting of the following: one or more COM100

(now discontinued) or COM200 chassis, COM120 or SWM units, an optional

gigabit Ethernet switch, and QAM24 cards or alternatively comercial edge

QAMs.

COM120

A RF (radio frequency) distribution panel, which is necessary to enable KaB

band signal delivery. The manual will use this device as a reference, but it may

be replaced with a similar device of your choosing.

COM200

A chassis that can support up to 12 receiver cards. This chassis contains an

integrated gigabit Ethernet switch and Ethernet Card, but does not include

other necessary equipment such as an edge QAM device, Ethernet switches, or

RF distribution and signaling electronics.

COM100

The first-generation chassis of the COM1000 series chassis, similar in structure

to the COM200 but lacking backplane Ethernet connections. This product was

discontinued in 2010.
