4.1 Remote Control
4.1.1 Introduction
The IRD can be remotely controlled in a variety of ways. The basic control
methods are:
• TANDBERG Device Controller (TDC)
• Third-party application using TANDBERG SNMP MIB protocol
• Third-party application using Alteia remote control protocol
(RS-232/RS-485)
• TANDBERG Director (over-air)
Common for all control methods is that the IRD needs to be set up to
accept the remote control handling. Once in remote control mode, it
cannot be locally controlled unless the remote control is deactivated.
