Page 5: Description
2.3 Description The Cassettes convert two DVB-S-/DVB-S2-modulated data flows into two QAM- modulated data flows. The Cassettes are controlled via the head end. Each Cassette has two inputs and one HF output. Each Cassette is equipped with two channel strips (A and B). The channel strips consist of digital SAT tuners, the digital signal preparing units and the output converter. -
Page 6: Manual Display Of The Software Version
2.3.1 Manual display of the software version If necessary, you can call up the display of the software version of the control unit manually: • Hold down any two keys of the control unit simultaneously until the display goes dark and the software version, e.g. “V 35”, is displayed. 2.3.2 How the TP module works When converting the QPSK-modulated signal to a QAM-modulated cable signal, the demodulated data stream can be accessed via the integrated TP module. -
Page 7: Explanation Of The Term "Symbol Rate
2.3.3 Explanation of the term “symbol rate” Modulation schemes such as QPSK and QAM transmit multiple bits simultane- ously. These are referred to as symbols. In addition to the user data flow which transmits video and audio information, error correction bits are transferred. The FEC number states the ratio of error correction bits to user bits. -
Page 8: Bandwidth-Efficient Assignment Of Cable Channels With Low
2.3.4 Bandwidth-efficient assignment of cable channels with low bandwidths (SelecPlex ® Channels with low bandwidths are the result of filtering out stations which are not required. These “narrow” channels can then be arranged in one channel to save space. To do this, activate fine tuning in the “Output channel” menu (as- signment outside the official channel raster). -

Note: The operating software of the Cassette can be updated via the socket “RS 232” (9-Pin-Sub-D) by means of a PC or notebook. Use the “BE-Flash” software as the update software. You can find the current operat- ing software of the Cassettes on the website “www.gss.tv”.
