. Introduction
This application is to control an AMS (Antenna Management System) controller via RS-232 port and/or
ethernet port in a PC in a remote location or on-site. An AMS controls and monitors motor in antenna which
is used to change tilt and azimuth of antenna beam.
Figure 1-1) shows block diagram of communication between AMS and antenna(s).

) Procedure
When ID on “Information” is different from ID on TICU, error code will be generated. Please
refer to “2) initial setting” below to set ID or click ”Read” to get items on Table-Initial Setting
List.
Click “Refresh” button to get (display) all the parameters.
Click “Get ALD Node” button to get all the unique IDs of ALD connected to TICU. To refresh
ALD information, click “Scan” button.
Choose specific ALD that you would like to control and monitor from the “Connected list”, then
click “Refresh” button to get parameters of the ALD stored on TICU.
) Initial Setting
When “Initial Setting” (Figure 7-1) button is clicked, window will be displayed (Figure 7-2). If you would
like to read information from the TICU, click the “Read” button. It is not possible to change the item in
the AMS Lite Version.

input the operation parameter, but only checked data will be transferred to the TICU.
Refers to Table “Set Device Data List”.
If you click the “Write” button, the data will be transferred to the TICU. When we use the Ethernet
interface, PC sends the data to the IP address at the TICU local network settings. And the TICU also
responds to the IP address at the Server Environment settings. However it is not possible to change
Local Network and Server Environment in the AMS Lite Version.

When “TICU Reset” (Figure 7-1) button is clicked, the TICU will be rebooted. It takes about 5 seconds.
In case of soft reset, the ALD information will be remained. But if you turn on the power after turn off,
the ALD information will be cleared.
) Refresh
When “Refresh” (Figure 7-1) button is clicked, the information in Figure 7-1 will be updated.
) Device Scan
The function “Device scan” searches all ALDs ID and serial number connected to the TICU. This
function will be used in the case of the system setup, system reinstall. If you don’t know which ALD is
attached to the TICU, this will be also used.
It takes about 3 minutes. When the Device scan is completed, the ALD lists will be displayed to the
connected list. During device scan, Can’t send the ALD command.
) ALD Reset
When “ALD Reset” (Figure 7-1) button is clicked, all ALDs attached to the TICU will reset.

. ALD Control Method (Refer to AISG v2.0)
Figure 8-1 shows the ALD’s operation information and current status.
If you choose an ALD from the connected list, all information about the selected ALD will be displayed. And
each button executes the command compliant to AISG 2.0.
<Figure 8-1>
) Procedure (Refer to AISG v2.0 document)
Choose the ALD from the “Connected List”, and click “Connect” and “Refresh” button.
In case of Green LED on “Link alarm” and “Connect” LED, you can get information using
“Get” button.
RET: There is no alarm, you can control the antenna’s tilt degree using “Set Tilt” button. When
the Tilt operation is completed, get the current degree using “Get Tilt” button.
TMA: There are commands about TMA, “Set TMA Mode”, “Get TMA Mode”, “Set TMA Gain”,
“Get TMA Gain” and “Get Supported Func”.
) Set Assign
When “Set Assign” (Figure 8-1) button is clicked, window will be displayed (Figure 8-2). This window
sets ID of ALD. ID for each ALD must be entered in order to control and monitor ALDs connected to
TICU.
The communication between TICU and ALD uses the ALD ID, so you must input the unused ID.
If same ID exists on the data bus, the other ALD makes it’s own ID to NULL. The ID range is from 1 to
254. If the ALD is assigned to new ID, the ALD will be disconnected status.

) Connect
Change ALD status to Connect. When Disconnect, data is not sent and received. When command is
sent more than three times in Disconnect, ”Link Alarm” will be changed into red. (Use Refresh button to
check). In case that Link Alarm and Connect LED are in the state of green, it is possible to send a
command to ALD.
