Remote Transmitter Control
Introducing TransView© Embedded Web Server Based Transmitter Monitor and Control System!
TransView© enables local and remote operators to monitor, troubleshoot, and control their transmitters via a Browser Client Server hosted on board the transmitter. The transmitter itself serves the web pages, viewable from any computer web browser without installing any software!
While working in the broadcast facility or from home, the operator can see and completely control their transmitters by accessing the TransView© enabled RF network. Using a simple web based GUI, all critical transmitter operating parameters can be monitored, faults analyzed, operating mode selected, frequency changed (On HSD Models), and protection modes reset. TransView© provides an internet connection through a standard RJ45 connector. USB connectivity also provides PC connectivity with mass storage functionality.
The built in web server provided for control and monitoring with complete status change and fault logging. In addition, the embedded control/server system also provides an RS-422 connection for custom external control systems through a DB-9 jack on the rear of the transmitter.
The TransView© functionality is hosted on the EMCEE RCB-2 remote control board with its embedded processor and TCP/IP stack. A graphical representation of the entire transmitter core is provided in a single view, and allows “push button control” even over a low-bandwidth connection. Access to the web page is password protected to insure positive control. Multiple transmitters may be connected together with a simple and inexpensive Ethernet hub.
Transmitters are configured with either a private or public IP address and DHCP is supported with the embedded TCP/IP stack. The system provides an onboard real time clock with backup power. An internal event log captures control changes and fault events. All functionality is simply “Plug and Play”.
