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 cord needs to be replaced, only use an OEM power cord.
• The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 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, the mains plug must be pulled
out of the mains socket. Ensure that the mains plug 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.
• Make sure there is a minimum space of 10 cm on either side and 50 cm
above and below.
• 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, heat deflectors 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.
- 4 - STC 4-16 IPS CI
• Do not place any vessels containing liquids on the head-end station.
• 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.
• No liability is accepted for damage caused by faulty connections or inappropriate handling of the device.
• The firmware contains components which are licensed as Open Source
software. The components to which this relates and the respective license
terms can be called up via menu Help/Licences.
This parts of software source code can be provided at cost price on CD
upon request. The licensee is granted a non-exclusive right of use for the
Open Source Software by the respective right holders used; the conditions
stipulated by the respective valid license terms apply. The license terms of
this license only apply to the components which are not listed as Open
Source software.
In relation to the licensor the regulations on liability and warranty in these
license terms apply for the whole software. The liability and warranty regulations of the Open Source licenses only apply in relation to the respective
right holders.
• Test the firmware versions of the device and update them if necessary. The
current firmware version can be found at "www.mygss.eu".
Take action to prevent static discharge when working on the device!
Electronic devices should never be disposed of in the household rubbish. In
accordance with directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and the
European Council from January 27, 2003 which addresses old electronic and
electrical devices, such devices must be disposed of at a designated collection
facility. At the end of its service life, please take your device to one of these
public collection facilities for proper disposal.

The head-end station converts 16 transponders modulated acc. to DVB-S/
DVB-S2 standard (up to 32 APSK) into up to 128 SPTS transportstreams (maximum over all output data rate 820 MBit/s). In conjunction with specially programmed multiswitches up to four satellites can be received (multiple satellite
reception – option dCSS/Unicable II page 40).

LAN DATA
ge neral
The station is equipped with four SAT IF inputs, one Gbit LAN data output and
one 100Mbit configuration LAN input. It is preset to receive the most popular
ASTRA transponders. Different programming is possible at any time.
Each of the 16 tuners can be assigned to any SAT input.
Using adequate CA modules scrambled channels can be descrambled via tun-
ers "1"…"6".
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 Control input.
After the initial setup, you have
worldwide access to the station via
an OpenVPN connection – by PC,
tablet or smart phone with Internet access. Therefor observe menu
OpenVPN on page 34.

3.1 inst alli ng the d e v i Ce
– The device must not be operated lying down, since the function of the heat
sink will be severely restricted. Only with vertically arranged cooling fins
sufficient cooling is ensured.
– The device should only be installed in a room where the permissible ambi-
ent temperature range (0 °C … +50 °C ) can be maintained, even during
fluctuations in climatic conditions.
– Mount the device on a non-combustible base.
– Use mounting material suitable for the wall properties.
– Position the device with a minimum distance on the left and right side of
10 cm, below and above 50 cm.
• Attach four mounting screws at the installation site. The drilling distances
are shown in the drawing below.

—> With this option the upload must be done again after any changes
in the service list.
