Re: DW6000 reset utility


My fear is that the NOC MAY shut your connection down if you do too many resets in a short period of time. Then you would have to call Support and jump through the hoops to get back up. Playing with the utility last night, I did 3 resets in about an hour's time with no problem.

You can probably do a reset once a day, but I would do it only as needed to clear a problem. When you do a reset you clear the DW6000's counter's and stored values such as X-pol isolation numbers, Number of Successful Transmissions, Number of Failed Transmissions, Frames Received, etc. Sometimes that info is handy to have.

When working on things I've sometimes done a dozen resets in an hour (4020).

When on the road it is not uncommon for me to deploy my dish 3-4 times per day, and each of those deployments involves a reset for lat/long update. I've never seen any indication that the NOC knows, or cares.

Even when stationary on road trips I usually have one "hard" reset per day because the modems are often off overnight to conserve battery power.
