standard and the data stream fed via

(stations)

the LAN interface into one or two QAM-modulated cable signals dependent on
the input and output signal paths.

The

cassette

has one SAT IF input and one
RF output. Additionally it is equipped with a LAN interface and an ASI output
(ASI – Asynchronous Serial Interface acc. DIN EN 50083-9).

The transport stream fed via the LAN socket can be inserted into the transport

stream of the receiving stage via the TPS module. The signal path is set in the

general

The cassette is equipped with two channel strips ("A" and "B"). The "A" chan-

nel strip has a digital SAT tuner and can process both the transport stream fed
in via the LAN interface and the transport stream from the SAT tuner.

Using an
appropriate CA module, encoded services coming from the SAT tuner can be
decoded in channel strip"A". The "B" channel strip only processes the trans­port stream fed in via the LAN interface. The transport streams are directed to
the ASI output or the output converter depending on the set output signal route
"OUTROUTE" via the digital signal processing levels. The RF output signals are
sent through the RF output on the cassette to the output collector. The common
output level of the channel strips can be set in the output collector on the head­end station.

An LED in channel strip "A" provides an indication of the signal quality for

the SAT IF input signal and shows whether the modulator of the channel strip
is activated (LED lights up) or deactivated. The quality of the transport stream
being received is also shown in the display ("CN…").

The integrated TPS module (Transport Stream Processing) processes the data

from the transport streams.

The channel strips are indicated in the head-end station display with "Bx …A"

and "Bx …B". The control of the cassette takes place via the control unit of the
head-end station.

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 45"

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.mygss.eu".

The cassette is intended for use in the

- 9 - HMPT 1000 C

STANDARD LINE

head-end stations.

2.5 soft ware q u ery

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 45" appears.

Cassette

After activating the cassette the software version of the cassette is displayed

(see.page 22).

2.6 how the tPs mod ule wo r ks

After decoding QPSK- or 8PSK-modulated signals, the demodulated data

stream can be accessed via the integrated TPS module. This data stream,
also called transport stream, contains several stations in all their components
(video, audio, data and service information), which can be changed using the
TPS module.

stati on fi lte r

Individual stations can be deleted. This reduces the data rate and, conse-

quently, the output symbol rate required. Additionally stations of the different
transport streams can be assembled to a new transport stream.

stu ffing

The transport stream is padded using what is known as zero data. This ensures

a steady and constant output symbol rate.

Chang in g th e nit

The transport stream contains data in the form of tables which the receiv-

ers evaluate and require for convenient use. The TPS module can adjust the
"Network Information Table" (NIT) to accommodate the new station data. The
"NIT" contains data which is required by the set-top box for the automatic
search feature.

Chang in g th e oPer ator id (Cat)

Some network operators transmit an operator ID in the data stream (e.g.

visAvision). By changing the CAT the operator ID can be adjusted to the de­mands.

- 10 - HMPT 1000 C

2.7 exP la nat i o n of t h e term "sym bol r ate"

Modulation schemes such as QPSK and QAM transmit multiple bits simultane-

ously. These are referred to as symbols. In addition to the user data flow which
transmits video and audio information, error correction bits are transferred.
The FEC number states the ratio of user bits to the complete transmitted bits.
The output symbol rate is calculated as follows:

256-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 1/4 x SR (E)
128-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 2/7 x SR (E)
64-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 1/3 x SR (E)
32-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 2/5 x SR (E)

16-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 1/2 x SR (E)
4-QAM: SR (A) = FEC x 1/1 x SR (E)

Example:

Output symbol rate 64-QAM,
Input symbol rate SR (E) = 27,500

FEC= 3/4,

kSymb/s

SR (A)
SR (A)

= 3/4 x 1/3 x 27,500
=

6,875 kSymb/s

—> If no "FEC" is stated in the station lists, it can be assumed to be

"FEC = 3/4".

kSymb/s

Reception from a transponder with a very low symbol rate (SCPC station)
The extremely low data rate means that the output symbol rate is very low. If

there are reception problems with different digital receivers, set output symbol
rate to a higher value.

Defined symbol rates

Some cable operators specify a fixed symbol rate (e.g. 6,900 kSymb/s).

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

CLASS

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 nut on the cable terminal until the teeth on the lock washer have pen­etrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the housing
and cable terminal.

seleC ting C hannel / freq uenCy s et ting

In this menu, you can choose the channel or frequen cy setting for the adjust-

ment of the RF output. The channel setting covers the range of channels S21 …
C69, the frequency setting covers the range from 42.0 MHz to 860.0 MHz.

The QAM 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 S21 … C69 (frequency grid 8 MHz).
The CCIR channel grid is 7 MHz in the range of the lower frequency bands
(channels C2 … S20). Therefore the frequency setting is used here. If one uses
the existing channel grid of 7 MHz in these channel ranges, this will result in

- 27 - HMPT 1000 C

interference (overlapping) with the 8 MHz QAM signal packages, thus caus­ing transmission problems.

For programming in these channel ranges and in the frequency ranges below

them, we recommend starting with channel S21 / 306 MHz going back in
steps of 8 MHz (see frequency table on page 48), or reducing the bandwidth of
the QAM output signal by removing stations.

The symbol rates of the satellite transponders can be found in the current chan-

nel table of the satellite operator, in various satellite magazines and in the
Internet.

The cassette recognizes the transmitted DVB mode and switches over between

the normal QPSK mode (DVB-S) and the DVB-S2 mode. Receiving stations
with DVB-S2 mode, we suggest to preset the DVB mode to shorten the time for
searching stations.

6 fi n a l ProCedures

After installing the head-end station, upgrading accessories or installing cas-

settes 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 fingertight using an appropri­ate open-ended spanner.

• Measure the output levels of the other cassettes and tune them to a uniform
output level using the appropriate level controls or software dependent on
the head-end station used. Please regard the assembly instructions of the
respective head-end station.

—>

In order to prevent interference within the head-end station and the
cable system, the output levels of the digital cassettes must be set
lower by 8dB compared to analogue cassettes.

• Mount the front cover (see assembly instructions of the head-end station).
