Comments:

The following changes provide updated information for Section 1.4.3, Table 1-4, Figures

1-6 and 1-7. This information will be incorporated into the next revision.

Change Specifics:

1.4.3 8PSK and 16QAM (Viterbi Decoder and Reed-Solomon Codec)

The 8PSK and 16QAM specifications for the Eb/N0required to achieve 10-6 to

10-9 BER with the Viterbi decoder and Reed-Solomon Codec are shown in

Table 1-4. Refer to Figures 1-6 (8PSK) and 1-7 (16QAM) for the BER curves

with the Reed-Solomon option.

Note: Reed-Solomon parameters differ from open network and closed network. Open network

meets IESS-308 QPSK operation, using a 4-deep interleaver. Closed networks run different

Reed-Solomon parameters. A longer code word and an 8-deep interleaver is used, resulting in

better performance.

Comtech EFData Documentation Update

Subject: Changes to Note in Section 2.4.10, Alarms

Date: January 19, 2001

Document: SDM-9000 Satellite Data Modem Installation and Operation

Manual, Rev. 4, dated May 5, 1997

Part Number: MN/SDM9000.EB4

Collating Instructions: Attach this page to page 2-15

Comments:

The following changes provide updated information for page 2-15. This information will be

incorporated into the next revision.

Change Specifics:

2.4.10 Alarms (J10)

The alarms connector is used to provide three Form C contact closures for alarm

reporting, as follows:

• Alarm 1 = Not used

• Alarm 2 = TX

• Alarm 3 = RX

The two Form C summary fault contacts currently used are:

• Transmit alarm (Alarm 2)

• Receive alarm (Alarm 3)

Refer to Chapter 4 for a discussion of alarms monitored. To obtain a system summary

alarm, connect all the Form C contacts in parallel.

The alarms connection is a 9-pin female D connector located on the rear panel of the

modem. Screw locks are provided for mechanical security on the mating connector.

8 Alarm 3 COM

9 NC

Note: A connection between the common (COM) and normally closed (NC) contacts

indicates no alarm.
