- in such a manner that it is protected from moisture, fumes, splashing wa-
ter and dampness
- somewhere protected from direct sunlight
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
- in an ambient temperature of 0 °C to +50 °C. In case of the formation of
condensation wait until the system is completely dried.
• Ensure that the head-end station is adequately ventilated. Do not cover the ventilation slots.
• Beware of short circuits
• No liability is accepted for any damage caused by faulty connections or inappropriate handling.
• Observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines on the installa­tion and operation of antenna systems.
• The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 must be observed.
• For further information please read the assembly instructions for the head­end station used.
Test the software versions of the head-end station and the cassette and update them if necessary. The current software versions can be found at "www.triax.com".
Take action to prevent static discharge when working on the device!
Electronic devices should never be disposed of in the household rubbish. In
accordance with directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and the European Council from January 27, 2003 which addresses old electronic and electrical devices, such devices must be disposed of at a designated collection facility.

2.4 des CriPtion

The twin transmodulator cassette is a converter, which converts signals modu-
lated according to DVB-C/C2/T/T2 for feeding into a cable network.
standard into two QAM modulated signals
The
cassette
has two digital RF inputs and one
RF output.
Two common interfaces are present to descramble scrambled channels.

ge n e r al

The cassette is equipped with two channel strips ("A" and "B").
Using ad­equate CA modules scrambled channels can be descrambled via tuner "A" and "B".
LEDs provide an indication of the input signal quality based on their colour
and indicate if the respective channel strip is switched on (LED illuminates) or off.

Data rate overflow (output)
The integrated TPS module (Transport Stream Processing) processes the data
of the transport streams.
- 6 - CC2CT 800 C
By default the station filter is switched off. This may result in data overflows at
the output if you take the cassette in operation without corresponding settings. Customize the station filters accordingly!
Channel as well as frequency setting is possible for modulators. The QAM modulated RF output signals are sent through the RF output of the
cassette to the output collector. The common output level of the channel strips can be set at the output collector.
The control of the cassette takes place via the control unit of the head-end station. When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display shows the
software version of the control unit. To operate this cassette the software ver­sion of the control unit must be "V 45" or higher. You can find the current op­erating software for the control unit and the cassette, the software "BE-Flash" and the current assembly instructions on the website "www.triax.com".
The cassette is intended for use in CSE 3300 head-end systems.
When using these cassettes in Stations with more than eight slots, a maximum
of 8 cassettes may be operated, to prevent overloading the power supply and overheating the head-end station.
All other slots must remain free!

Control unit
If necessary, you can activate the indication of the software version of the
control unit manually:
• Press any two keys on the control unit of the head-end station simultaneously until the display goes dark and the software version, e.g. "V 45" appears.

The software version of the cassette is shown in the display after activating the
cassette (see page 18).

2.6 how the tPs mod ule wo r ks

After decoding the input signals, the demodulated data streams can be ac-
cessed via the integrated TPS module. These data streams, also called trans­port streams, contain several stations in all their components (video, audio, data and service information), which can be changed using the TPS module.

station f i lte r

Individual stations can be deleted. This reduces the data rate and, conse-
quently, the output symbol rate.

Ch anging t h e tr a nsPort stream a n d orgnet-id

The transport stream ID can be changed. If the stations of a transponder are
split into the transport streams of different channel strips, a new identification must be allocated to the "new" transport streams to realise the channel search of the settop boxes connected without mistakes.
If the ORGNET-ID is changed a new NIT must be generated.

Ch anging t h e nit

The transport stream contains data in the form of tables which the receiv-
ers evaluate and require for convenient use. The TPS module can adjust the "Network Information Table" (NIT) to accommodate the new station data. The "NIT" contains data which is required by the set-top boxes connected to the cable network for the automatic search feature.

3 assembly

3.1 installi ng the C assette

– Ensure the head-end station is mounted so it will not be able to vibrate.
Avoid, for example, mounting the head-end station onto a lift shaft or any other wall or floor construction that vibrates in a similar way.
– Before installing or changing a cassette unplug the power cable from the
mains power socket.
When using these cassettes in Stations with more than eight slots, a maximum
of 8 cassettes may be operated, to prevent overloading the power supply and overheating the head-end station.
All other slots must remain free!
• Remove the fastening screws 1 of an unoccupied slot from the bracket of the head-end station.
• Insert the cassette in this slot and push it into the housing.
• Align the cassette and apply slight pressure to connect it to the connections of the board and the RF bus bar.
• Fasten the cassette with the screws 1.

3.2 emC regulations

To comply with the current EMC regulations, it is necessary to connect the lines
leading in and out of the head-end station using cable terminals.
When mounting the cassette in a head-end station which is installed in a 19"
cabinet, make sure the connections leading in and out for the 19" cabinet are made using cable terminals.
The attenuation of shielding of the connection lines for ASI and antenna must
KLASSE
CLASS
meet the requirements for "Class A".
• Insert the required number of cable terminals in the openings provided in the head-end station or in the 19" cabinet.
Tighten the nuts on the cable terminals until the teeth on the lock washer have penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the hous­ing and cable terminals.

3.5 retr o fitting a Ca module

The cassette is equipped with two common interfaces. This allows you to con-
nect two CA modules for various scrambling systems and service providers. Scrambled channels can only be descrambled with a CA module suitable for the scrambling system and the corresponding smart card. The smart card con­tains all the information for authorisation, descrambling and subscription.
Caution
– Check with the distributor or manufacturer of the CA modules to be used
to ensure that they are suitable for descrambling several channels.
– The hardware and software of this cassette have been thoroughly prepared
and tested.
– Any changes made by programme provider to the structures in the pro-
gramme data might impair or even prevent this function.
– When working with the CA modules, please read the corresponding oper-
ating manuals from the respective providers.
• Insert the smart cards into the CA modules so that the chip 3 on the smart
card 1 faces the thicker side (top) of the CA module 2.
• Insert the CA modules into the slots 4 with the top sides of the CA modules
in left direction.
• Push the CA modules without canting into the guide rails of the CA slots 4
and contact them to the common interfaces.

—> If the cassette is inserted in the head-end station, the left common
interface is assigned to tuner A, the right one to tuner B.
