Paul, Discovery is suggesting that we add some language to the manual about setting up GigE
output for multicast and unicast addresses. In their labs they had a difficult time setting up
GigE out because the device they were connecting to didn't provide an ARP response. Jeff
Paul, we need to add Web GUI info about transcoding in appliance mode and how to
understand the possible output bandwith limitations.

Introducing the DSR-6400 Series
The Motorola DSR-6400 Series products are commercial Satellite Receiver/Transcoders, designed for
broadcasters and headend operators for receiving digital satellite services. The DSR-6400 Series units
will process both high-definition and standard-definition video services. After the DSR-6400 Series
units are properly installed and configured, they will be ready to receive authorization and control
information from the satellite signal source provider.
Key Features
• Eight RF inputs
• DC-II QPSK and DVB-S2 demodulation
• DigiCipher-II security
• GigE and ASI inputs and outputs (Digital HD and SD output)
• Two analog composite (SD) video output ports. The second (OSD video) is for diagnostic use.
• VBI reinsertion for Closed Captioning
• Two stereo pair audio output
• DTMF output
• Up to four Form-C relays for ad insertion support
• One Form-C relay for fault alarm indication
• Uplink controlled retunes
• Memory: Configuration is saved in nonvolatile memory.
• A two-line, 40-character front panel with a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

DSR-6400 Series Models
• MPEG-2 HD and/or SD ASI and GigE outputs
• Web Server GUI for remote operation
• Advanced audio processing - Supports pass-through and decoding/decompression of Dolby
AC-3 and pass-through of the Dolby E audio compression algorithm
• Message Mailbox - Supports text message delivery from the uplink for display on the IRD’s
front panel.
• DPI support - Digital (SCTE-35) ad-splicing message support in both broadcast and unitaddressable formats
• DTMF cue tone and Form-C contact closure relay terminals for each processed service
• Scalable service transcoding - shown in Figure 1-1.
Model and Transcoding Capacity
The DSR-6400 Series includes a range of products differentiated by the number of services the units
are able to simultaneously receive and transcode. The DSR-6401 transcodes one service, the DSR6402 transcodes two, the DSR-6403 transcodes three, and the DSR-6404 transcodes four services.
For setup purposes, the DSR-6400 Series introduces the concept of "processor" or PR in the user
interface. A PR number in the user interface identifies the individual service processor path and the
unique configuration settings assigned to (or the status information that pertains to) each programmer service being received in a multi-service unit. Each path transcodes a single service according to
its own unique configuration settings.
The DSR-6400 Series provides service transcoding that processes up to four MPEG-4 HD input
services into four MPEG-2 HD/SD output service pairs (up to eight total services). Figure 1-1 shows
how service capacity varies by model.

Note: The GIGE port
carries the same PID
mapping information as
the two ASI OUT ports.
The DSR-6400 Series uses a PID mapping scheme for the output services for ASI and GIGE output
ports. The following two tables show each of the individual service components and their assigned PID
values on each MPEG program. These PID values affect the output ports: ASI OUT 1, ASI OUT 2, and
GIGE, as shown below. For multiple instances of the same component type, the unit increments the PID
value by one.

Changing any one of the PR fields will change
all PR fields throughout the entire menu system.
Note: The DSR-6401 has one processor and
does not display the PR field on any menu. It also
uses three Relay ports (supporting up to three possible ad insertion choices).
The other models have one dedicated relay for
each processor (supporting only one ad insertion
choice per processor). For more ad insertion
choices, use Cue Tones instead.
Processor / Back Panel Associations
Figure 1-2 shows how Processor numbers (PR) coincide with the Cue Tone ports and Relay ports on the back
panel. For example, a DSR-6402 has two processors. The two services use cue tones Q1 (for Processor 1) and
Q2 (for Processor 2). To execute Ad insertions, the two processors also use Relay port 1 (for Processor 1) and
Relay port 2 port (for Processor 2). Figure 1-2 also shows how all PR fields are linked within the menu system.

Rack Mounting Guidelines
The DSR-6400 Series unit, with the supplied mounting brackets is designed for installation
in an EIA standard 19-inch (480 mm) equipment rack. Place each unit in a stable and level
position within the rack and ensure that all front enclosure screws are tightened to 14 inlbs. If multiple DSR-6400 Series units are installed in a rack assembly, the operator may
choose to have a certification agency evaluate the condition of the rack.
Mechanical Loading
The mounting rack location should be secure and level to avoid hazardous instability to the
equipment due to uneven loading or weight distribution within the rack.
Ambient Temperature
When installing a DSR-6400 Series unit within a closed or multi-unit rack, the ambient
temperature may be greater than the ambient temperature within the room. Therefore,
verify that the amount of air flow required for safe operation is not compromised
(maximum temperature for the equipment is 40° C). Consideration should be given to the
maximum rated ambient temperature for the unit’s location when planning for cooling and
air circulation. To evacuate the unit’s warm air output from within the mounting rack,
Motorola Mobility recommends the use of a fan on top of the rack.
Circuit Overloading
If the unit is connected to a power strip, rather than a branch circuit’s direct connection, use
special care to ensure that the unit is properly connected. Always consider the affect that
overloading circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring. To ensure
that circuits are not overloaded, read the DSR-6400 Series UL regulatory power label on
top of the unit. Check all equipment power/amperage ratings to ensure the mounting rack
power rating is not exceeded.
Earth Ground
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g.
use of power strips). The RF-IN antenna cable should only be connected while the unit is
properly grounded. The shield of the coaxial cable should be earthed in YP accordance with
Article 820.93 of the NEC (National Electrical Code), ANSI/NFPA 70:2005, or equivalent.
Battery Replacement
Do not replace the lithium battery used in the unit. Instead, return the unit to a Motorola
Mobility authorized service center for replacement with the same or equivalent type
battery as recommended by the manufacturer.

Connecting the DSR-6400 Series
To connect a DSR-6400 Series to the GigE signal, see "GigE Input" on page 31.
To connect a DSR-6400 Series to an ASI signal, see "ASI Input" on page 31.
To connect a DSR-6400 Series to an RF signal:
1. Determine which satellite, transponder, Virtual Channel Table (VCT) number, and
Virtual Channel is to be used. Contact the programmer for this system information so
that the desired services can be received.
2. Connect the desired L-Band (satellite antenna LNB or LNB signal splitter) source cable
to RF Input Port 1 through 8, as directed by the programmer.
Note: LNB power can be enabled for RF Input Port 1.
3. To view video and On-Screen Diagnostics (OSD) during installation, connect the OSD
Video Output on the back panel to a 75-ohm video monitor or television with
composite video input (standard definition).
Note: The unit generates time-specific ad insertion cue tones and relays. The
programmer can include these messages in the encoded signal.
4. If cue tones are needed and made available, connect the differential Cue Tone+, Cue Tone-,
and Ground terminals on the unit to the 600-ohm device receiving the tones.
Note: The unit provides an alarm relay that can be used to signal an alarm condition.
To indicate an alarm, the unit provides a short-circuit electrical connection between the
NC and CM terminals and an open-circuit electrical connection between the NO and
CM terminals. With this configuration, the unit is able to signal an alarm, even for the
loss of AC power.
5. Plug the unit into a power source. Verify that the LCD screen is lit.
6. Proceed with the installation using the front panel menus.
7. For details on web server GUI, see "Remote Operation" on page 21.

Remote Operation
The DSR-6400 Series decoder can be operated remotely from a web browser. When the
decoder is contacted via an HTTP session from a computer, the decoder’s web server responds
to the HTTP session with a login dialog box that requires the user to login with user name and
password. Once the login is successful, the decoder’s web server then presents the unit’s home
page to the browser.
Some of the IRD configuration settings and control inputs that are accessible through
HTTP include:
• Virtual channel and audio language selection
• Status and device information (e.g., signal strength, alarms, unit address)
• Soft reset (AC power cycle)
• Settings for acquiring a satellite signal (e.g., transponder frequency, input port)
• Video and audio output customizations
• Alarm triggers
• ASI and Ethernet output customizations
• Complete Transcoder configuration (Read-only when set by uplink programmer)
To configure the DSR-6400 Series unit for remote operation
1. Contact your network administrator for the IP Subnet Mask address, unique IP address,
and default gateway address to assign to this decoder.
Caution: By default, all DSR-6400 series units have the same IP address. To use
the unit’s remote operation, each unit on the subnet must be assigned a unique IP
address. Failure to assign a unique IP address to each unit on the subnet will result in
loss of connectivity.
2. To configure the decoder, use the decoder’s arrow buttons on the front panel to perform
the following procedures:
• 10/100 IP Address Menu, page 58
• 10/100 Subnet Mask Menu, page 59
• 10/100 Default Gateway Menu, page 59
3. Use an RJ-45 cable to connect the decoder’s Ethernet 10/100 port to the subnet that will
be used to operate the decoder remotely.
DSR-6400 Series 21

Note: The uplink programmer who authorizes
the unit has the option to set the User Name
and Password. If they authorize the unit
without using this option, leave both fields
blank and simply select OK to gain access to
web-based remote operation. (Blank) is the
default User Name and Password.
6401
To operate the DSR-6400 Series decoder remotely
1. Open a browser session, type the decoder’s unique IP address in the address bar, and
press the ENTER key.
For example, if the decoder is configured with IP address 10.11.23.60, then go to the
browser, type: http://10.11.23.60 in the address bar, and press ENTER.
2. When the login dialog box appears (as shown below), enter the User name and Password
and select OK.

Using the Front Panel
The front panel LCD screen displays a series of menus that can be used to configure and control
the system. The name of the current menu is always in the upper left corner of the screen for easy
identification.
• Beneath every menu name are symbols representing key presses that are possible from the
current cursor position in the menu. Note that the available keypad moves may change during
the navigation between menu fields.
• The top row, to the right of the menu name, displays the name of each field available within
that menu. These are called field labels and its setting is displayed directly below.
• Beneath each label is the current setting for each field.
• Some fields may be changed by the user and others are for display purposes only. Fields that
can be changed have an arrow indicator ( ) just to the left of the field label. During left/right
navigation, the cursor skips over the labels that cannot be changed.

Navigating the Menus
Even though the keypad options shown on the LCD screen may change for each menu and for
each field, the control buttons basically do the same thing. The user may want to practice on a
screen to become familiar with how the buttons work. Notice that:
• Pressing the
causes the cursor to scroll to another menu.
• Pressing ENTER while the cursor is blinking next to the menu name (far left corner) causes
the cursor to scroll to the Main, top-level menu.
• Pressing the
field labels (or the menu name and a field label).
• Pressing the 4 button at the rightmost field label causes the cursor to wrap to the left side
of the screen (to the menu name). Likewise, pressing the button when the cursor is at the
menu name causes the cursor to wrap to the rightmost field label.
• When the cursor is blinking on a field label (top row), pressing ENTER causes the cursor to
move below the label and enter into the field so the setting can be changed.
• When the cursor is below the label, the displayed directional controls in the left corner show what
buttons can be pressed to change the setting in that field. When the symbol is left of the field, this
indicates the ability to select from the available values. Placing the blinking cursor on those arrows

Port Menu
Use this menu to configure RF In ports (Port 1 through Port 8). This menu is not available when the
Manual Tune menu has the Input field set to ASI In or GigE In. That option is described on page 32.
Because the unit has eight RF input ports that can potentially be used to switch and tune signals
from multiple satellite antenna, the unit demands there be an accurate association of the port with
the Satellite and Polarity designators programmed in the Uplink encoder system(s) to which we
plan to downlink from on each port.
Because accuracy is critical, a default Auto mode automatically updates the Sat (Satellite) and Polar
(Polarity) fields for the one port that is currently being tuned. This automatic population of the fields
occurs upon entry of acceptable channel information.
To ensure success in getting initial authorization, decryption, and output, leave this menu
unchanged in Auto mode (as shown below).
If the Uplink Signal Provider gives detailed instructions, set the Mode field to Manual and set the
Sat (Satellite) field and Polar (Polarity) field. Any mismatch between what is entered into these
fields and the Uplink encoder Satellite and Polarity designations for the services will prevent
authorization decryption and service output. Satellite names and polarity designators for a given
service do not necessarily reflect actual satellite names or even the correct polarity of the actual
signal. These values are set within the provider’s encoder system.

dynamic range of the audio signal.
Off-Off Disables dialog normalization. Compression is not used and provides full
dynamic range of the audio signal.
On-Heavy Enables dialog normalization. The degree of compression is heavy, which
reduces the louder audio signals and boosts the softer signals using tighter
compression thresholds, in order to eliminate dramatic fluctuations in the
audio signal level and suppress dynamic range of the audio signal.
Press ENTER to confirm the selection and exit the field.
Note: When dialog normalization is enabled, the audio levels for speech are normalized to a

via a broadcast code download, the second code version is saved in memory, but is not activated.
When code is pushed out to the unit, it is assigned a planned activation time. This is when the unit
will automatically deactivate the original code version, install the newer code version, and reboot
the unit with the new version code activated and running.
