Models 3434-KuD Ku-Band Beacon Tracking Receiver Version 4
A tracking receiver for antenna step tracking and automatic uplink power control with Accu-trac for high frequency drift applications.

The Model 3434-KuD Version 4 is the latest release of our reliable series of 3434 Beacon Receivers.  With Version 4 firmware the Model 3434-KuD has an input of  10.7 - 11.7 GHz****, Digital Level reference setting, Ethernet connectivity with M&C control interface, and power up temperature compensation for rapid signal acquisition.  The 3434 series now offers our proprietary Accu-trac search and acquire AFC feature with several search bandwidths up to ±800 kHz.  Frequency selection on 10 kHz steps may be accomplished from the front panel or via remote control.  Pre‑detection noise bandwidth of 50 kHz (or factory option of 25 kHz) facilitates accurate tracking at very low C/N levels for use with either CW or BPSK carriers.

1. AFC disable option for wide data carrier applications
2. Digital level reference setting, -30 to -90 dBm on 0.5 dB steps
3. Accu-trac signal tracking feature for Ka or high drift LNB applications with selectable acquisition bandwidths up to ±800 kHz
4. RS-232/422/485 and Ethernet, control interface, all Standard / Front panel selectable
5. Dual signal strength output / 2 identical analog outputs for simultaneous antenna tracking and UPC control

Satellite Systems announces the new control GUI version 2.0 for our Beacon Receiver Product line. Enhanced control features and additional monitoring tools are included along with strip charting for signal strength, AFC, and temperature. Version 2.0 also includes a new event-triggered alarm feature that allows for email notification to your laptop or cell phone. Alarms are triggered via signal strength, loss of signal, and AFC conditions.
