Hughes DW6000 User Manual

The 

 screen displays the fields described below. 

Table 2 describes the RxCodes in detail.

•

Receive status -

 reports the status of the receive data path. 

Clicking on the blue status message displays corresponding 
help information.

•

Frames received-

 reports the number of data messages 

received by the DW6000 over the satellite link.

•

Frames with Errors-

 reports the percentage of received frames 

that were found to be corrupted. A continuously increasing 
value indicates problems in the receive path. This may 
happen in adverse weather conditions or if the receive cable 
or the antenna has a problem. However, if a low 
nonincreasing value is displayed and the system is 
functioning, there is no reason for concern. You do not need 
to do any troubleshooting or contact installer support.

•

Bad Key Frames-

 indicates the percentage of received frames 

that could not be decrypted successfully. All data received 
over the satellite is encrypted. A continuously increasing 
value indicates the unit is not commissioned.

The following messages may appear in the 

Receive Status 

field. 

The Comments section in Table 2 gives more information about 
each code, and describes any possible corrective measures. See 
Figure 49 on page 45 for corrective measure involving cables or 
the power supply. Power cycling means to unplug the power cord 
from the wall outlet or surge protector, wait 10 seconds, and plug 
it back in. If corrective measures do not solve a problem, contact 
installer support.

RxCode 5 means receive is working properly. It is the code you 
will see most of the time.
