UNCTIONALITY

The TS Router block receives input streams from an available source, for example: L-Band, MPEG-over-IP IN and ASI IN. Then the block routes the selected input to the Master and Slave decoders. Each decoder decodes one program from the input stream, routed by the TS router block, and provides decoded digital audio and video streams. These streams are provided to the Video Router block that routes them to the relevant outputs as well as to the analog video output. The Analog Video Output receives a digital video, converts the digital video into analog video, and outputs the analog video. The analog and digital audio output component outputs the digital and analog audio.

PERATION AND

ANAGEMENT

This chapter details controlling the IRD-2900 with its front panel and Web management interfaces. The Front Panel control interface contains all the existing IRD-2900 control parameters, while the Web management interface allows easy access to the same parameters from a remote computer. Therefore the description of these two interfaces is interlaced and brought together in this chapter.

4.1. P

RESET

The IRD-2900 allows creating, storing and managing up to 50 different user-defined setups. Each setup stores the following parameters:

• Front-End - (Satellite, IP, ATM, ASI) all parameters.

• Service (Dual for 299x or Single 298x-296x) selected parameters.

• Audio- - Decode mode and Volume parameters.

• CAS - BISS keys (mode and keys).
