For details on the TS FILE settings when Source is set to Internal, see the LG 3810
instruction manual.
Press SOURCE under MENU to display the SOURCE screen.

Figure 3-1 SOURCE screen

● Explanation of function keys

• F1 Pattern

Press to select the video pattern, screen size, and audio pattern from those that are
stored in the LG 3810.

See section 3.1.1, “Selecting the Fixed Pattern.”

• F3 Source

Select the TS input that you want to use.
Fixed Pattern Videos and audio that are stored in the LG 3810 are modulated

and generated (factory default).
PN PN23 or PN15 random signals are used.
External <Input:SPI> The TS that is applied to the rear panel SPI input connector is

used.
External <Input:ASI> The TS that is applied to the rear panel ASI input connector is

used.
Internal A TS from the internal HDD or an external USB device is used.

Notes regarding switching the source

• When the TS input is switched (between each fixed pattern, PN, SPI, ASI, and

Internal), the receiver lock is released momentarily to reset the encoding circuit.

• The LG 3810 cannot receive data if an external TS (SPI or ASI) is selected and the

TS IN alarm is lit on the top screen or a TS that exceeds the allowable rate for
encoding is applied.

3.1.1 Selecting the Fixed Pattern

On the SOURCE screen, set Source to Fixed Pattern, and then press F1 Pattern to select
the video pattern, screen size, and audio pattern.

You can specify any combination that you want for the pattern, screen size, and audio. The
monoscope becomes different specific patterns depending on the screen size. If you have
set Standard to J.83C on the CODING screen, you cannot specify a monoscope pattern
with a screen size of 1440×1080i.

The TS signals of the patterns that are stored in the LG 3810 support the standards that
you can specify on the CODING screen. Depending on the value that you have specified
for Standard, the number of selectable screen sizes changes.

See section 3.2.1, “STANDARD.”

• F2 TS Setting

Press to configure the TS input settings shown below.
You can also configure these settings when you use F3 Source to select Internal.
However, this only applies when Format is set to MPEG-TS.

• Null Packet Filter

• PCR Update

See section 3.1.4, “TS SETTING.”

3.1.4 TS SETTING

To display the TS SETTING screen, on the SOURCE screen, set Source to External or
Internal, and then press F2 TS Setting.

Figure 3-5 TS SETTING screen

● Explanation of function keys

3. DETAILED SETTINGS

• F2 Null Packet Filter

This setting is only available when you select an external TS (SPI or ASI) or the
Internal TS (MPEG-TS format). When turned ON, the Null Packet Filter filters packets
that contain the 0x1FFF PID from the TS that is applied to the LG 3810 input connector.
Removing unnecessary null packets provides you with an increased number of carrier
modulation choices. This feature is not available for broadcast transport streams.
[ Off / On

]

• F3 PCR Update

Converts the external TS to a broadcast TS for broadcast encoding. During this
conversion, because the LG 3810 carries out operations such as rearranging the
packet order and inserting invalid packets, the PCRs must be overwritten. Therefore,
normally turn this setting ON. For each external TS, the LG 3810 can overwrite up to 8
types of PCRs. This feature is not available for broadcast transport streams.
[ Off / On

]

Notes regarding configuring TS settings

• You can only configure these settings when the TS input is SPI, ASI, or Internal.
However, if you have selected Internal, you can only configure these settings when
Format on the TS FILE screen is set to MPEG-TS.

• If you have specified Internal for the TS input, the LG 3810 will not display this screen
when a TS file is being played back.

3.2 CODING

Press CODING under MENU to display the CODING screen. Use this screen to configure the
modulation parameters.

Depending on the Standard that you have selected, the settings that you can configure on the
CODING screen vary as shown in the figures below.

Response returned from TS_? 3,0 (internal HDD)

* You cannot specify a monoscope pattern with a screen size of 1440×1080. This setting

combination will be ignored.

* If the amount of data that follows the n parameter does not match what is expected for the

specified n value, the program code will be ignored.

* If the LG 3810 receives a “TS” command instructing it to set the transport stream while a TS is

being played back from the internal HDD or an external USB device, the TS that is playing will
be stopped.

3.5 Sample TS

The LG 3810 comes with a USB memory device that contains original sample transport s
treams for checking the LG 3810's operations.

3.5.1 Notes

These transport streams have been created by LEADER to check the LG 3810's
operations. They are not designed to be used for evaluating decoders or as a reference for
evaluating videos, image quality, audio, or audio quality.
While the operation of these transport streams has been confirmed on representative
receivers that are commercially available, this does not guarantee that they will operate on
all receivers.
Please note that the data that is stored on the USB memory device can be deleted easily.

About the sample transport streams

• LEADER ELECTRONICS CORP. holds all copyrights to the videos contained in these
streams.

• You are not permitted to:

• Copy, process, or edit these streams without LEADER's permission.

• Decode these streams into PESs or elementary streams.

• Broadcast these streams or make them public for commercial purposes.

• Broadcast these streams or make them available to the general public.

• Transfer these streams to another company or individual.

• Use these streams with a device that has not been manufactured by LEADER.
