Program Status Summary
For each program mapped, the current status is displayed. This status indicates whether
the program has successfully been mapped, successfully been encrypted, or if there is
an error.
The following bullets describe the program status fields in more detail:
•
Program Undefined
mapping; therefore, should not be seen by the user.
•
Program Mapping Defined
defined, but is now inactive. Inactive program mappings can only occur when after a
mapping has been created and the output stream becomes inactive (such as when a
QAM module is removed from the APEX1000). The program will automatically
reactivate whenever the output channel becomes active.
•
Successful
the program is being mapped from an input to the output stream. No errors.
•
Program Remultiplexing Stopped
mapping is being stopped. Either the mapping has been deleted or is transitioning
from active to inactive.
Program Status Error Conditions
•
Waiting For Input PAT
Either the input source is missing or the input is not connected. Check cable
connections, router/switch status, and validate the input source specified (interface,
UDP, multicast, and source IP).
•
PAT Error
input program number specified by the user was not found in the PAT. Verify the
input program of the mapping.
•
PAT OK
—
number was found. Waiting for PMT to be extracted.
•
PMT Error
can only occur when the output stream is configured with PID Remapping disabled.
This indicates that two programs are sharing the same PMT PID, or that the PMT
PID is in use by another mapping as a component PID.
•
PMT Error
are being shared with other programs. The APEX does NOT support programs that
share component PIDs. This condition can also indicate that the ECM PID is being
shared when the input program is pre-encrypted (also not supported).
•
PMT Error
supported per program is exceeded.
•
PMT Error
•
PMT Error
invalid.
