4 1 Safety regulations and notes The devices meet the EU directives 2011/65/EU, 2014/30/EU and 2014/35/EU. This device is subject to the provisions of protection class I. Operate the device only to mains sockets with protective conductor connection! If the power cords need to be replaced, only use OEM power cords. The standards EN/DIN EN resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN must be observed, especially concerning equipotential bonding and earthing. Observe the relevant country-specific standards, regulations and guidelines on the installation and operation of antenna systems. Before starting installation or service work disconnect the receiving system from mains. Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms. Assembly, installation and servicing must be carried out by an authorised electrician. For a complete disconnection from the mains, both mains plugs must be pulled out of the mains sockets. Ensure that the mains plugs can be pulled out without difficulties. The head-end station should only be installed in a room where the permissible ambient temperature range (0 C +50 C ) can be maintained, even during fluctuations in climatic conditions. To avoid too strong interacted heating of the head-end stations it is not admissible to mount them one upon the other without using thermic precautions (e.g. permanently air recirculation, ventilation etc.). If additional fans are to be used to circulate the air, ensure that the system will be shut down (disconnected from mains) should any one of the fans fail. Install the head-end station - in a dry, dust-free environment, in such a manner that it is protected from moisture, fumes, splashing water and dampness - where it is protected from direct exposure to sunlight - on a vibration-free wall or floor construction - not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources In case of the formation of condensation wait until the system is completely dried. Ensure that the head-end station is adequately ventilated. Do not cover the ventilation openings! Do not install the head end in cabinets or recesses which are not ventilated. Do not place any vessels containing liquids on the head-end station STS 1916 IPM

5 Do not place anything on the head-end station which could initiate fires (e.g. candles). Due to the risk of fires caused by lightning strikes, we recommend that all mechanical parts (e.g. distributor, equipotential bonding rail, etc.) be mounted on a non-combustible base. Wood panelling, wooden beams, plastic covered panels and plastic panels are all examples of combustible bases. Avoid short circuits! To ensure electromagnetic compatibility, make sure all connections are tight and that the covers are screwed on securely.

It is preset to receive the most popular ASTRA transponders. Different programming is possible at any time. The MPTS output data streams are output via the LAN output. The configuration of the station is to be done via an HTML user interface via a PC and a standard HTML browser connected to the configuration input. The two configuration inputs are connected via an internal switch. Several stations can thus be cascaded for configuration STS 1916 IPM

9 If the configuration input is connected to the Internet, after the initial setup, you can get worldwide access to the station via an OpenVPN connection by PC, tablet or smart phone with Internet access. GSS OpenVPN Server > When using mobile terminals dependent on your mobile contract additional connection costs / data transfer costs may also be incurred here. 16 LEDs provide an indication of the SAT IF input signal quality based on their colour and indicate if the respective channel strip is switched on (LED illuminates) or off. The LEDs are blinking red/green during data overflow. The station is powered by two independent power supplies (redundancy). The power supplies can be replaced individually during operation. If one power supply unit fails, a warning signal sounds. If the control input has connection to the Internet, the device can send a warning when a signal, power supply or one of the fans fails STS 1916 IPM

25 170 QAM/COFDM settings for NIT (virtual RF output) These settings are only required if you want to create a NIT and LCN and output it via the MPTS output data streams! > The displayed data rates correspond to the data rates for the MPTS output data streams 150 and are NOT dependent on the settings made under 170. Note that data overflows may occur if you want to modulate the MPTS output data streams to QAM or COFDM in a subsequent device. These data overflows are not displayed here! > The settings made here must then also be made on the following device (modulator). QAM modulation is set at the factory for the virtual RF output. If you want to use COFDM at the output, you must first select COFDM under Output. In column Modulator, switch on or off the modulators of the individual lines. In column Chan. / Freq. [MHz], enter the desired output channel/frequency of the individual lines. > Double assignments are indicated by a warning icon. > A output signal is normally transmitted with a bandwidth of 8 MHz. This means that you can only use the channel centre frequency of the existing channel grid in the range of channels C21 C69 (frequency grid 8 MHz). The CCIR channel grid is 7 MHz in the range of the lower frequency bands (channels C5 C12). If 8 MHz QAM signal packages are transmitted in these channel ranges, this will result in interference (overlapping) and transmission problems. For programming in these channel ranges and in the frequency ranges below them, we recommend starting with frequency 306 MHz going back in steps of 8 MHz. Please note thereby that many DVB-T receivers cannot receive the channel ranges S21 S41 ( MHz) STS 1916 IPM

26 Only if the RF output is set to QAM: In column SR [ks/s], enter the desired output symbol rate of the individual lines. In column Modulation, select the desired kind of modulation of the individual lines: For QAM: QAM 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 For COFDM: QPSK, 16 QAM, 64 QAM For exceptional cases and "older" digital cable receivers, in column Spectrum the spectral position of the user signal can be inverted (invers). Factory default is "normal". Only if the RF output is set to COFDM: Setting of the Code rate - column CR During a transmission data can be lost or changed. To recover this data redundancy is added to the signal to be transmitted (forward error correction). The factor of the quantity of redundancy contained in the bits transmitted is called code rate. Using the setting "C7/8" you can get the highest output data rate at lowest redundancy. Only if the RF output is set to COFDM: Setting of the Guard interval - column GI In this column you set the relation of the duration of the user symbols to the duration of the guard intervals to be transmitted. A high guard interval, e.g. "G1/4" causes a low output data rate. For cable networks the setting "G1/32" is adequate. Only if the RF output is set to COFDM: Setting of the Bandwidth - column BW To transmit the output signal in the channel range of S21 to C69 a bandwidth of 8 MHz can be used. In the channel range of C5 to C12 a bandwidth of 7 MHz must be set. 180 Before leaving the menu, changes must be transferred to the head-end station!
