1 Safety regulations and notes
• 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 water and dampness
- somewhere protected from direct sunlight
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
- in an ambient temperature of -20 °C to +50 °C.
• 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 instal-
lation and operation of antenna systems.
• Earth the SAT receiver in accordance with DIN EN 50083-1 / 60728-11
and VDE 0855 (earthing, equipotential bonding rail).

2.4.3 General
The cassette is equipped with two channel strips (“A” and “B”).
The channel strips consist of the digital SAT tuners and the digital signal processing levels. In the head-end station display, the channel strips of the cassette are indicated with “
Bx …A
” or “
Bx …B
”. The channel strip “A” can decode encoded services via a corresponding CA module. The cassette is controlled with the head-end station control unit. Two LEDs provide an indication of the quality of the SAT IF input signal with their colour. The quality of the received transport stream can also be shown in the display (“
C/N
” menu). The LEDs for the LAN interface show whether a network connection exists and whether a data transfer is in progress. The integrated TPS module (Transport Stream Processing) processes the data from the demodulated transport streams. 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 40” or higher. You can find the current operating software for the control unit and the cassette, the software “BE-Flash” required for updating and the current as- sembly instructions on the website “www.gss.de”. The cassette is designed for use in the following head-end stations: – STC 1200 – STC 316 – STR 19-8 – PST 19-1
- 9 -
2.5 Software query Control unit
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 40” appears.
Cassette
After activating the cassette the software version of the cassette is displayed (s. page 19).
2.6 How the TPS module works
After decoding QPSK- or 8PSK-modulated signals, the demodulated trans­port stream can be accessed via the integrated TPS module. This transport stream, also called data stream, contains several services with the appropriate data components (video, audio, data and service information), which can be changed using the TPS module. In the station filter services can be deleted. This reduces the output data rate. Additionally services of the different transport streams can be assembled to a new transport stream. The transport stream contains data in the form of tables which the receivers evaluate and require for convenient use. The TPS module can adjust the “Net­work Information Table” (NIT) to accommodate the new service data. The “NIT” contains data which is required by the set-top boxes for the automatic search feature. Some network operators transmit an operator ID in the transport stream (e.g. visAvision). By changing the CAT the operator ID can be adjusted to the de­mands.

3.1 Installing the cassette
– 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.

• Insert the required number of cable terminals in the openings provided in the head-end station or in the 19" cabinet.
—> Cable terminals are not included in the scope of delivery.

(channel strip “B”) (fig. chap. 3.3).
• Connect the LAN socket 6.
• Connect the ASI input 8 and the ASI output 9 to the peripheral ASI devices.
3.5 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 serv­ices 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.

– When working with the CA module, please read the corresponding op-
–
Check with the distributor or manufacturer of the CA module to be used to ensure that it is suitable for decoding several services.
– The hardware and software of this cassette have been thoroughly pre-
pared and tested. Any changes made by service providers to the data structures in the service data might impair or even prevent this function.
erating manual from the respective provider.
• 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 and contact it to the common interface.

If the station filter is switched off (factory default) all services of the transport stream passes the station filter. As soon as the station filter is activated services can be added to the transport stream selectively.
The figure of the menu below is dependent on the setting of the “Selecting the input signal path” ”INROUTE” menu (page 23). The programming procedure shown below corresponds to the setting ”A+B+ASI = 1 ASI = 2”. With this setting the transport stream of channel strip “B” is routed to the transport stream of channel strip “A” and there­fore cannot be set in channel strip “B”. Programming channel strip “B” the transport stream coming from the ASI input can be processed only.

6 Final procedures
After installing the head-end station, upgrading accessories or installing
cassettes it is necessary to tighten all cable connections, cable terminals and cover screws in order to maintain compliance with current EMC regula­tions securely.
• Securely tighten the cable bolted connections using an appropriate open­ended spanner.
