SD4260 S-Video/CVBS/YPbPr to DVB-T Encoder Modulator User Manual
SD4260 series products are ClearView’s all-in-one devices which integrate encoding,
multiplexing and modulation to convert V/A signals into digital RF output. SD4260
is also equipped with 1 ASI input for re-mux, and output with 2 ASI ports and 1 IP port.
The signals source could be from satellite receivers, closed-circuit television cameras,
Blue-ray players, and antenna etc. Its output signals are to be received by TVs, STB
and etc with corresponding standard.
With its various inputs available, our SD4260 series products are widely used in
public places such as metro, market hall, theatre, hotels, resorts, and etc for advertising,
monitoring, training and educating in company, schools, campuses, hospital… It’s a
good choice to offer additional info channels..

Chapter 2 Installation Guide
This section is to explain the cautions the users must know in some case that possible
injure may bring to users when it’s used or installed. For this reason, please read all details
here and make in mind before installing or using the product.
2.1 General Precautions
Must be operated and maintained free of dust or dirty.
The cover should be securely fastened, do not open the cover of the products when the
power is on.
After use, securely stow away all loose cables, external antenna, and others.
2.2 Power precautions
When you connect the power source, make sure if it may cause overload.
Avoid operating on a wet floor in the open. Make sure the extension cable is in good
condition

Power
Requiring device power, air-conditioning power and lighting
power are independent to each other. Device power requires
AC 110V±10%, 50/60Hz or AC 220V±10%, 50/60Hz. Please
carefully check before running.
2.5 Grounding Requirement
All function modules’ good grounding is the basis of reliability and stability of devices.
Also, they are the most important guarantee of lightning arresting and interference
rejection. Therefore, the system must follow this rule.
Grounding conductor must adopt copper conductor in order to reduce high frequency
impedance, and the grounding wire must be as thick and short as possible.
Users should make sure the 2 ends of grounding wire well electric conducted and be
antirust.
It is prohibited to use any other device as part of grounding electric circuit
The area of the conduction between grounding wire and device’s frame should be no
less than 25 mm2.

output the corresponding program)
3) Modulator Setting
Bandwidth
There are three possible options provided for selecting bandwidth: 6M, 7M, and 8M.
When the display shows them, user just need swift LEFT and RIGHT key to choose
and repressing ENTER to confirm.
When entering “Modulator” submenu, user can configure the modulating parameters
for the 1carrier output separately:

Constellation
Four different constellations QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM will be shown on the LCD
window. User can set constellation type with the same method mentioned above.
Transmission Mode
When user enters Transmission Mode, the LCD would show the current working
mode. User can move LEFT/RIGHT keys to select and press ENTER key to
confirm. 2K and 8K are the options:
2K: When the device works as current mode, the number of current carrier is 2048
8K: When the device works as current mode, the number of current carrier is 8192
Guard Interval
In communications, guard intervals are used to ensure that distant transmissions do not
interfere with each other. These transmissions may belong to different users (as in
TDMA) or same user (as in OFDM). The purpose of the guard interval is to introduce
immunity to propagation delays, echoes and reflections, to which digital data is
normally very sensitive. There are four possible options provided to be selected. They
are 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32. User can shift the LEFT/RIGHT keys to select and press
ENTER to confirm.

User not only can use front buttons to set configuration, but also can control and set the
configuration in computer by connecting the device to web NMS Port. User should ensure
that the computer’s IP address is different from the SD4260’s IP address; otherwise, it
would cause IP conflict.
The default IP address of this device is 192.168.0.136. (We can modify the IP through
the front panel.)
Connect the PC (Personal Computer) and the device with net cable, and use ping command
to confirm they are on the same network segment.
I.G. the PC IP address is 192.168.99.252, we then change the device IP to 192.168.99.xxx
(xxx can be 0 to 255 except 252 to avoid IP conflict).
Use web browser to connect the device with PC by inputting the Encoder & Modulator’s
IP address in the browser’s address bar and press Enter.
It will display the Login interface as Figure-1. Input the Username and Password (Both the
