CPI Antenna Control System Model 930A

Overview

For over 50 years, CPI Antenna Technologies experienced engineering staff has been developing high-precision, economical satellite tracking and control systems. As the world’s leading manufacturer of satellite and ground-based products and services, our systems are designed using cutting edge technology. Our control systems can be used with almost any antenna and support a wide range of applications. The systems feature an easy-to-use, modern ethernet interface, and are software upgradeable to protect your investment. All control systems come with an end-to-end warranty and are supported 24/7/365 days a year by our technical customer support team.

System

Our Model 930A, offers economical satellite tracking and control. It is ideally suited for fixed antennas with single AC motor per axis and includes an Antenna Control Unit (ACU), Internal Tracking Receiver (TRU) and a Power Drive Unit (PDU). The Model 930A is our replacement for our long-standing Model 7134 and is backwards compatible with our reliable Model 7150 Power Drive Units.

Pointing Accuracy

Normally better than 0.05° RMS in winds of 30 mph gusting to 45 mph. This includes all drive train errors, but excludes structural errors between the position transducers and RF beam.

Tracking Accuracy

In Enhanced Memory Track, normally better than 10% of the receive beamwidth in winds of 30 mph gusting to 45 mph, satellite inclination of up to 5°.
