Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Outline
Thor DVB-S2 modulators are built to the highest standards and fully comply with the second generation standard for satellite modulation of digital video broadcast streams. This platform is able to ingest a single program or multi program transport stream in either ASI or IP (MPEG-TS UDP) format. The chassis modulates the entire transport stream, along with any secondary programs and closed caption PIDs. For the highest reliability applications, an additional 3 ASI program stream inputs are provided and constantly monitored for stream integrity. With all four inputs constantly monitored for faults in the bit stream; the modulator can intelligently switch from one input to another the second a fault is detected. This allows a constant error free output to the DVB-S2 carrier. The processor recovers quickly enough to prevent even a single dropped frame in the output stream.

Chapter 4 NMS Settings
H-HDSDI-DVBS2 Encoder Modulator adopts web-based user interface, NMS GUI. Before operating, you should ensure that the computer’s IP address is different from the DVB-S2’s IP address; otherwise, it would cause an IP conflict.
4.1 Login
The default IP of this device is 192.168.0.136. We can change the IP from the front panel of the device. Then connect the pc to the device with RJ45 Cable, and use ping command to confirm these two are in same Network or not. If the PC IP address is 192.168.99.252, we change the Device IP to 192.168.99.196, then we need to use the Web browser to connect the device with our PC. Put the IP address of the unit in the any internet browser and press Enter.
You should input the user name and password (The default Username and Password is ‘admin’ and ‘admin’ respectively) then click on ‘Login’ to enter the welcome interface which is shown as follows:

4.2.2 BISS:
The BISS scrambling function application needs to be matched with a BISS descrambler. The BISS scrambling supports two modes: “Mode 1” and “Mode E”. Select one of the two modes in the drop down list.
4.2.2.1 Mode 1
Under Mode 1, the BISS scrambler applies scrambling by a fixed Control Word (CW), derived from a clear SW (Session Word). In Mode 1, a fixed 12-character SW is inserted in the scrambler. The 64-bit CW is derived from the SW
according to DVB-CSA specification Select Mode 1 in the drop-down menu, and then input the scrambler key. The
scrambler key consists of 12 characters from 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. The downside device descrambler key equals SW Data on the BISS
.
scrambler side. After inputting the scrambler key, press “Apply” to initial scrambling. A few
~ 17 ~
seconds later, the programs will be scrambled.
4.2.2.2 Mode E
Under Mode E, the BISS scrambler completes scrambling through ESW Data and Input ID. The ESW data equals Descrambler key on the downside device side, while the input ID equals Burned Key on IRD side.
The select ID has two options: Device and Input. If you choose Device, the Burned Key needs to be selected when descrambling, while you choose Input and set Input data, on the downside device side, users do not need to select Burned Key and input the Input data as SK. Under Mode E, select Burned Key option. The device will calculate new data which works as a descrambling key. The new data is created by Descrambling Key (refers ESW on scrambler side) and Burned Key (Input or Device mode on the scrambler side). If you select Burned Key, it corresponds to the Device mode selected on scrambler side; while if Burned Key unselected, it corresponds to Input mode on scrambler side. The Input data is SK on the IRD. Input the SK in
the column as showed:
Mode E (Burned Key option unselected)
After selecting Mode E and Burned Key unselected, Input the 16 figure Descrambler Key and 14 characters SK (the SK data refers to the Input Data on scrambler side). Users should choose the characters from 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. Lastly users press “Set” to initial descrambling. A few seconds later, the programs will be descrambled. Note: Under this mode, after inputting the Descrambler Key and SK, it will work out new data, which can be seen as the SW in Mode 1. The new data resulted from Descrambler Key and SK implements descrambling function.
~ 18 ~
Mode E (Burned Key option selected)
After selecting Mode E and Burned Key, Input the 16 figure Descrambler Key (named ESW on scrambler side). Choose characters from 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F. Under this mode, SK cannot be input in the column, as the data which works with ESW has been embedded inside the device after users select Burned Key (which refers that users choose Device mode on the scrambler side). Lastly press “Set” to initial descrambling. A few seconds later, the programs will be descrambled. Note: The Burned Key is embedded in the device and it is solely controlled by the device supplier.
Click Parse Prg to view the input programs and modify the program names as their requirement. If you need to scramble the programs, mark the corresponding
boxes in front of the programs with √and click Set to activate the setting.
