- 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 de s CriPtio n
The double transmodulator cassette converts
stations
into two
IP-MPTS
transport streams.
COFDM and QAM
The
cassette
has two RF inputs and
modulated
one LAN output. Additionally it is equipped with an ASI input and an ASI output (ASI – Asynchronous Serial Interface according to EN 50083-9).
The transport stream fed via the ASI socket can be inserted into the transport
streams of the receiving stages via the TPS module. The signal path is set in the
menu items input signal path

general
The cassette is equipped with two channel strips ("A" and "B"). The channel
strips consist of the digital tuners and the digital signal preparation units.
The
channel strips are indicated in the head-end station display with "Bx …A"
and "Bx …B". Using an adequate CA module scrambled channels can be
descrambled via channel strip "A". The control of the cassette takes place via
the control unit of the head-end station.
Two LEDs provide an indication of the input signal quality based on their col-
our and indicate if the respective channel strip is switched on (LED illuminates)
or off. During the boot process both LEDs are blinking.
The integrated TPS module (Transport Stream Processing) processes the data
of the transport streams.
For operating the cassette in a LAN network it can be assigned its own IP ad-
dress.
The LEDs for the LAN interface show whether a network connection exists and whether a data transfer is in progress. Two MPTS IP transport streams
are output through the LAN output of the cassette.

Additionally a transport stream is made available via the ASI output depend-
ent on the signal path set.
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.gss.de".
The cassette is intended for use in the

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.

After activating the cassette the software version of the cassette is displayed
(see page 21).

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 RF bus bar.
• Fasten the cassette with the screws 1.

3.2 emC regul ations
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 nuts of the cable terminals until the teeth on the lock washers
der
have penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between
the housing
/ 19" cabinet
and cable terminals.
