2.4 Description
The twin transmodulator cassette is a QPSK-converter, which converts all stations modulated according to DVB-S1 standard and
lated cable signals.
The
cassette
has two digital SAT IF inputs and an HF output.
QPSK2 into two PAL-modu-
It is equipped with two channel strips (“A” and “B”). Each channel strip consists
of a digital tuner, a digital signal preparation unit and a modulator.
The channel strip “A” can decode encoded channels via a corresponding CA
module. Depending on the CA module and the smart card, two channels can be
decoded simultaneously with one CA module, with the second one supplied via
channel strip “B”. The control of the
cassette
takes place via the control unit of
the head-end station. By means of the “a” and “b” levels of the channel strips,
channel selection according to a timer is possible. The

The prepared input signals reach the HF output collector of the head-end station
via the HF output socket. The common output level of the channel strips can be
set with the level regulator at the output collector of the head-end station.
When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display briefly shows
the software version of the control unit.
To operate this cassette the software version of the control unit must be “V 37”
or higher. You can find the current operating software for the control unit and
the cassette, the software “BE-Flash”
and the current assembly instructions

The
cassette is
designed for use in the following head-end stations:

If necessary, you can activate the indication of the software version of the control unit manually:
• Press any two keys on the control unit of the head-end station simultaneously
until the display goes dark and
the software version, e.g. “
V 37
” appears.
3 Assembly
3.1 Installing the cassette
Caution
– Ensure the head-end station is mounted so it will not be able to vibrate.
Avoid, for example, mounting the head-end station onto a lift shaft or any
other wall or floor construction that vibrates in a similar way.
– Before installing or changing a cassette unplug the power cable from the
mains power socket.
• Remove the fastening screws 1 of an unoccupied slot from the bracket of the
head-end station.
• Insert the cassette in this slot and push it into the housing.
• Align the cassette and apply slight pressure to connect it to the connections of
the board and the HF bus bar.
• Fasten the cassette with the 1 screws.

3.2 Installing the F terminals
To comply with the current EMC regulations, it is necessary to connect the
lines leading in and out of the head-end station using F terminals.
When mounting the cassette in an STR 19-8 head-end station which is in-
stalled in a 19" cabinet, make sure the connections leading in and out for
the 19" cabinet are made using F terminals.
• Insert the required number of F terminals in the openings provided in the
"
head-end station or in the 19
cabinet.
—> F terminals are not included in the scope of delivery.
Tighten the nut on the F terminal until the teeth on the lock washer have penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the
housing and F terminal.

3.4 Retrofitting a CA module
The cassette is equipped with a common interface. It allows you to connect
a CA module for various encryption systems and service providers. Encoded
channels can only be decoded with a CA module suitable for the encoding
system and the corresponding smart card. The smart card contains all the information for authorisation, decoding and subscription.
Caution
– Check with the distributor or manufacturer of the CA module to be
used to ensure that it is suitable for decoding 2 channels.
– The hardware and software of this cassette have been thoroughly pre-
pared and tested.
– Any changes made by program vendors to the structures in the program
data might impair or even prevent this function.
– When working with the CA module, please read the corresponding op-
erating manual from the respective provider.

can be updated via the 9-Pin D-DUB
• Insert the smart card into the CA module so that the chip on the smart card
faces the thicker side (top) of the CA module.
• Insert the CA module into the slot

• Push the CA module without canting into the guide rails of the common interface slot and contact it to the common interface.

• Connect the test receiver to the HF output or the test output of the head-end
station.
• Set the output channel / output frequency of the
adjust the TV test receiver to this channel.
• Switch on the modulator if necessary.
• Balance the output levels of the channel strips “A” and “B” if the difference in
level is ≥ 1 dB (see chapter “Modulator settings”, page 19).
• Measure the output levels of the analogue
form output level using the appropriate level controls 2 (s. page 7).
