RVP10 Input and output summary

I/O summary
Function	Description
AZ/EL angle input options	Serial AZ/EL angle tag input using standard Vaisala RCP format 16-bit each parallel TTL binary angles through the I/O-62 card Synchro angle inputs through the I/O-62 card RCP network antenna packet protocol
Ethernet I/O from host computer	Data output of calibrated dBZ, V, and W during normal operation. Full I/Q time series recording with a separate tsarchive utility, or through a custom application using a public API. Signal processor configuration and verification read-back is performed through the Ethernet interface.
Input from IFDR	32-bit floating point I/Q values Optional dual-channel I/Q samples (for example, for polarization systems or dual-frequency systems)
Optional polarization control	RS-422 differential control for polarization switch
Trigger output	Up to 12 total triggers available on various connector pins. Triggers are programmable with respect to trigger start, trigger width, and sense (normal or inverted).
