Setting Up The Asi Output Parameters - Cisco D9054 Installation And Operation Manual

Setting Up the ASI Output Parameters

To Set Up the ASI Output Parameters
Proceed as follows to set up the ASI output:
1. From the user interface of the D9054 HD Encoder, click the TS Output tab and
the ASI icon from the sub-pages.
The GUI displays the bit rate of the Used Payload if you press Reload.
2. For the Enable Output, select On, Off or Null Packets.
Under normal operation you should verify that the output is set to On. The
output may have been set to Off by the Encoder Backup Task. For further
information refer to the Digital Headend Backup, Task Driver for Rosa 3.0, User's
Guide, part number 6985066.
3. Select the ASI Mode to Packet unless you have specific requirements.
Select between the two DVB transmission modes for ASI. In Packet mode a
whole MPEG packet is sent (188/204 bytes) and stuffing is inserted between
packets. In Burst mode one byte is sent at a time with stuffing inserted between
bytes. Some non-Cisco decoders specifically require Packet or Burst mode.
4. Set the Delay After Settings File in the range from 0 to 65635 ms. The default is
5000 ms.
When a valid settings file has been received (e.g., in a back-up scenario in
ROSA), the TS output must only contain null-packets for the specified time
period. When the time period has expired, the output must be re-enabled.
If a settings file is received while the ASI Enable output parameter is set to Off,
the output will remain muted before, during and after the period specified in
this field.
5. Click Apply.
