• Assembly, installation and servicing should be carried out by authorised
electricians.
• Switch off the operating voltage of the system before beginning with assembly or service work or pull out the mains plug.
• Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.
• Install the system so it will not be able to vibrate…
- in a dust-free, dry environment
- in such a manner that it is protected from moisture, fumes, splashing wa-
ter and dampness
- somewhere protected from direct sunlight
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
- in an ambient temperature of 0 °C to +50 °C. 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 slots.
• Beware of short circuits
• No liability is accepted for any damage caused by faulty connections or
inappropriate handling.
• Observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines on the installation and operation of antenna systems.
• The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 must be
observed.
• For further information please read the assembly instructions for the headend station used.
• Test the software versions of the head-end station and the cassette and
update them if necessary. The current software versions can be found at
"www.gss.de/en".
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.

2.4 des CriPtion
The cassette is a
DVB-C/T / SPTS
converter which combines modulated services (programmes) in accordance with the DVB-C/T standard and data streams
supplied via the ASI interface into one data stream in the TPS module. This
is emitted via the LAN interface and can contain up to 16 services. For operating the cassette in a LAN network it can be assigned its own IP address.
The cassette is equipped with two tuners. The accompanying channel strips
consist of the digital DVB-C/T tuners and the digital signal processing levels.
The resulting data streams from the "
Tuner A
"/"
Tuner B
" channel strips and
from the data streams supplied via the ASI socket (ASI – Asynchronous Serial
Interface according to DIN EN 50083-9) can take up to 16 services and are
each assigned an IP address.
The signal supplied into the ASI input is provided
again via the ASI output.

In an additional menu, the transmission of DVB service information (EIT, TDT
and SDT) or teletext (TXT) can be individually activated or deactivated.
EIT (Event Information Table):
For each service, event information is transmitted (such as starting time, dura-
tion, scrambling etc.)
TDT (Time Date Table):
The transmitted table contains the current time and date.
SDT (Service Description Table):
Information relating to the

is also sent with the name of each serv-
ice.
The LEDs for the LAN interface show whether a network connection exists and
whether a data transfer is in progress.
When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display shows the
software version of the control unit.
To operate this cassette the software version of the control unit must be "V 44"
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 on
the website "www.gss.de/en".
The cassette is intended for use in the

3.1 installi ng the C assette
– 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 screws 1.

3.2 emC regulations
To comply with the current EMC regulations, it is necessary to connect the lines
leading in and out of the head-end station using cable terminals.
When mounting the cassette in a head-end station which is installed in a 19"
cabinet, make sure the connections leading in and out for the 19" cabinet are
made using cable terminals.
The attenuation of shielding of the connection lines for ASI and antenna must
KLASSE

meet the requirements for "Class A".
• Insert the required number of cable terminals in the openings provided in
the head-end station or in the 19" cabinet.
Tighten the nuts on the cable terminals until the teeth on the lock washer have penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the housing
and cable terminals.

• Insert the smart card 1 into the CA module 2 so that the chip 3 on the
smart card faces the thicker side (top) of the CA module.
• Insert the CA module into the guide rails of the CA slot 4 with the top side
of the CA module facing the top side of the cassette.
• Push the CA module without canting into the guide rails of the CA slot 4
