Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
The Thor H-2/4HD-EM is our new pro broadcast featured encoder that features
high end performance with powerful functionality. It comes equipped with 2/4
HD-SDI channel inputs that support: MPEG-2 & H.264 video encoding with
MPEG-1 layer 2, LC-AAC, HE-AAC, and AC3 audio encoding. The 2/4 SDI inputs
will be output via either ASI or IP in MPTS or SPTS.
This encoder will be an ideal chassis to support any DVB-ASI programming as it
adopts the necessities to output AC3 audio and Closed Caption 608 &708. Also
comes’ stock with dual power supply, as a back-up units is on standby to ensure
your unit won’t fail. Structured to facilitate to the demanding needs of any broadcast,
this encoder series is the newest addition to Thor’s Broadcast Encoders.

Chapter 2 Installation Guide
Please use caution when operating this device in order to abstain from any possible
injury during installation. For this reason, please read all details listed below and make
and use caution before proceeding to operate and use this electronic equipment.
2.1 General Precautions
Must be operated and maintained in an area free of dust and debris.
The cover should be securely fastened, do not open the cover of the chassis when the
power is on. This will also void Thor’s manufacturer’s warranty.
After installation, securely stow away all loose cables, external antenna, and others.

2.2 Power Precautions
Be careful when connecting a power source to the device.
Do not operate in wet or damp areas. Make sure the extension cable is in good
condition
Make sure the power switch is off before you start to install the device

2.5 Grounding Requirement
It is important to keep this device grounded to ensure all of the modules
function correctly. Correctly grounding the device will also help prevent any
electrical interference, lightening. Etc. Also it helps reject minor interference that
may disrupt the devices ability to function smoothly. General rule of them, make
sure the device is grounded when installing anywhere.
power are independent to each other. Device power requires
AC 110V±10%, 50/60Hz or AC 220V±10%, 50/60Hz. Please
carefully check before running.
Always use copper wire. When applied correctly the ground must be wrapped
well to ensure maximum conduction so it can reduce any high frequencies. The
copper ground wire should also be as short and thick as possible
Installer must make sure that the two ends of the ground are well conducted
and have appropriate anti-rust properties.
It is prohibited to use any other device as part of the grounding electric
circuit.
The area of the conduction between the ground wire and device’s frame
should be no less than 25 ㎡.
