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.

Indication
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!
2.5 soft wareq u ery
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 ulewo 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.
stationf i lte r
Individual stations can be deleted. This reduces the data rate and, conse-
quently, the output symbol rate.
Ch angingt h e tr a nsPort streama 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 angingt 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.

3.1 installi ngtheC 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

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.

This means that you can only use the channel centre frequency of
the existing channel grid in the range of channels C21…C69 (frequency grid 8 MHz). The CCIR channel grid is 7 MHz in the range
of the lower frequency bands (channels C5 … C12). If 8 MHz
QAM signal packages are transmitted in these channel ranges, this
will result in interference (overlapping) and transmission problems.
For programming in these channel ranges and in the frequency rang-
es below them, we recommend starting with frequency 306 MHz
going back in steps of 8 MHz (see frequency table on page 37).
Please note thereby that many receivers cannot receive the channel
ranges S21…S41 (306 … 466 MHz).

After installing the head-end station, upgrading accessories or installing cas-
settes it is necessary to tighten all cable connections, cable terminals and cover
screws in order to maintain compliance with current EMC regulations securely.
• Securely tighten the cable connections using an appropriate open-ended
spanner.
• Measure the output levels of the other cassettes and tune them to a uniform
output level using the appropriate level controls or software dependent on
the head-end station used. Please regard the assembly instructions of the
respective head-end station.
• Mount the front cover (see assembly instructions of the head-end station).
