D2 FLEX OG 5220 models and features
BASE Model:
The D2 FLEX OG 5220 comes standard with ASI to IP and IP to ASI conversion that allows the
transmission of Internet Streaming with SRT: Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) that provides end
to end security and optimized streaming performance across unpredictable networks for the best
quality video possible. The integrity and quality of the video is maintained by accounting for packet
loss, latency, jitter and dynamically adjusting for bandwidth between each endpoint. Now you can
reliably deliver low latency video over any network including the public internet.
Easily Rebrand Channels with EPG: Set the major and minor channel numbers on each output
stream and pass through or regenerate the necessary PSIP tables. The optional D2Guide can
insert an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) from services like Titan TV and Gracenote (TMS) or
from a spreadsheet with programming for the next several weeks so your customers can find the
programs they want.
If you need to add any features, they can be added with a software upgrade. Contact your distributer or
D2D Technologies for a quote.
Installing the openGear OG 5220 into
the ROSS openGear, oGx Chassis.
The OG-5220 is designed to be installed into a Ross Video oGx OpenGear Chassis only. For
more information, please visit: https://www.rossvideo.com/products-

1.oG 5220 Backplane
Connect your inputs and outputs as needed. NOTE that the DATA output is an added feature and can be
enabled as an extra license. Currently, for this manuals purpose. It is labled as “Future Use”.
2.Installing the cards into the openGear frame slots.
•The OG 5220 card will take a total of 2 consecutive slots.
•The card itself will take 1 slot from the front and 1 backplate.
•The slot numbers go from left to right if you are looking at it from the front.
•The first and last cards are Ross management cards and should not be removed.
1. Remove the Philips screw holding the backplate on. Keep the screw.
2. Insert the OG card, bottom first into the frame and use the screw to fasten the top to the same
hole that was holding the backplate on.
3. Slide the card into the front of the unit with the white retaining tab on the bottom. Be sure to get
the correct rail that coincides with the backplate.
4. Carefully push it all the way back until the card is flush with the front and you feel it connect into
the back plate that was installed in step.
5. The white retaining tab should snap up as the back of the unit fits into the card on the back on the
same rail.

3.Powering it up
You MUST have both power supplies connected! Once you hook up the two power
supplies, turn on the openGear chassis with the small, black switches located at either
side, (PS 1 and PS 2). After you close the door, you’ll hear the fans power up and settle.
If there is a power supply not hooked up, bad power to one side, or the fan door is left
open, a loud alarm will sound until you connect clean power to both sides and close the
door.
Connect.
You can either use Ross Dashbaord or connect directly
4.Using Ross Dashboard to connect:
If you don’t have the latest Dashboard already, go to https://www.opengear.tv/frame-and-control/control-
system/download/ and install it on your computer. The openGear frame contains an internal network hub.
All the openGear cards in the openGear system connect directly to the internal network hub. This allows
all the cards to be accessed through the openGear ethernet port.
Connect an ethernet cable to the control port on the openGear chassis. (Bottom left hand side looking at
the backplane).

5.Connecting directly to the card. D2 TCP/IP -
Control Port Setup Guide
NOTE: The FLEX System is shipped with default, static IP addresses. You will need to have a
direct Ethernet connection with the OpenGear Chassis. The recommended way to achieve this is
to set a stand-alone PC (Not on your LAN) with direct cable to the OpenGear chassis.
You will need:
1. 1 Ethernet cable. (CAT 5 or CAT 6)
2. A PC (Windows or MAC) is set to a static IP address of 192.168.1.150 that has a wired
Ethernet port and has either Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft edge.
3. 1 dedicated port and a dedicated static IP address from your IT or Network Facilities
Administrator.
IP addresses and login info
The openGear frame contains an internal network hub. All the openGear cards in the D2Flex system
connect directly to the internal network hub. This allows all the cards to be accessed through the
openGear ethernet port.
Plug a PC or Mac directly into the CONTROL ethernet port (Top) of the card.
Default subnet: 192.168.1.150.
Set your PC to the following parameters: IP address: 192.168.1.150,
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway: 192.168.1.1.
The D2Flex runs the D2Manage web server used for configuration.
Use a web browser to connect to the control IP address of unit.
Default IP Address: 192.168.1.200
Default UN: admin
Default PW: admin
The following browsers are supported by the D2FLEX system:
Chrome
Firefox
Microsoft Edge
If you are NOT familiar with the process of changing your PC’s IP settings, there are instructions here, or contact D2D

Once you type in the IP
address, the username and password, you will land on the “System Status” Page.
This will display the temperatures of the main chip as the current temperature, the peak temperature, and
the “Uptime”. (Amount of time that the board has been powered up).
Further down the page is the incoming payload data
rate in green and the total aggregate data rate
including null packets (Stuffing) in grey. This allows
for you to glance at the incoming signal for confidence.

7. Systems Settings Page
System Gateway
Set this to the gateway of the LAN that the OG card will be on if you will be communicating via the back
Ethernet port on the back
openGear Internal IP Address (use chassis Ethernet port)
This will be the IP address of the Ethernet port that DashBoard will use
Rear Panel Control IP Address
The IP address of the card for the Ethernet contro plugged into the back of the card itself.
General Settings - Hostname
If you are using multiple card osr D2 devices in you LAN or via SNMP. You may want to change each
card to a unique hostname so it can be easily identified.
Time Settings using the standard NTP (Network Time Protocol)
Accurate time settings are necessary for dynamic PSIP and are automatically set. The Flex automatically
sets the time to 0.pool.ntp.org, which is the main standard for Network Time Protocol in the United
States. You will need to set your time zone according to where the unit is deployed at.
Manually setting the time
Set the NTP Server IP to 0.0.0.0 and press “save Time Settings” and allow it to save. Then, you can set
the time. NOTE, if the time settings are inaccurate, check your System Gateway and make certain it is
accurate so the Flex can see the “Outside world”

Inserting and multiplexing ASI
All ASI connections (in and Out) are done via the 5220 card itself and cannot be sent to anywhere else in
the frame
Once a valid ASI stream is inserted into the backplane, it should show up on the status of the screen for
the appropriate ASI.
On the Transport Streams Page, you can click on the plus sign, expand it and drag any of the services (or
all) to any output. In this case, one service is being sent out to the ASI 1 Out.
NOTE: If you have plugged in a valid ASI and see the bitrate status as green but do not see any services
or a plus sign next to the input. Press Rescan at the bottom and it should show up.
At that point, some data should show up on the output you dragged it to

D2D Technologies FLEX OG 5220 _V2.0
11
Inserting and multiplexing TsoIP
All IP connections (in and Out) can be done via the 5220 card ETH ports or via the openGear Chassis
using the “INTERNL IP”configurations.
(Note: At the time of this manual production, only the TOP ETH is active.
Once a valid TSoIP (UDP Multicast, UDP Unicast or SRT) stream is inserted into the system either by the
back ETH port or via the Internal IP (openGear Chassis), it should show up on the status of the screen for
the appropriate ASI.
1.Inserting a TSoIP stream:
Make certain that the stream is present on the end of the Ethernet line either in the ETH port or
through the openGear frame chassis Ethernet.
On the transport Streams page, click on the gear icon next to the IP input you wish to bring it in on.
Unlike ASI, TSoIP inputs are “Virtual” and assignable so therefore do not align with a specific input
port.
Input the stream information either by using the boxes, or as in this case, paste the URL into the URL
override. Using the URL override negates all the other boxes.

D2D Technologies FLEX OG 5220 _V2.0
12
NOTE: If the stream is UDP, you can just replace the “SRT” with “UDP”
Once the information is filled out, be sure to click on SAVE, then Click “Back To Streams.
Once you are back on the Transport Streams page. You’ll need to click “Apply” and “Rescan
Then, active data should show up on the IP in you set up on the Status page.
Once you have data coming in, from the Transport Streams Page, you can click on the plus sign, expand
it and drag any of the services (or all) to any output.
NOTE: If you are receiving a valid IP stream and see the bitrate status as green but do not see any
services or a plus sign next to the input. Press Rescan at the bottom and it should show up.

D2D Technologies FLEX OG 5220 _V2.0

Setting up the IP output
Once you have dragged all of the services needed for the IP output. Click on the Gear near the top of the
output.
That will bring you into the setup page for the IP output.
Set the Egress rate in bits. In this case, it is set for 20 Mbps (20000000)
Scroll down to the bottom and set up the output parameters. This unit is set up to send the stream via
multicast UDP to 225.1.1.1 port 54321

Transport Streams, VCT / static PSIP
1.Muxing, Manipulating and Adding programs
On the “Transport Streams” menu, click on “Rescan”and let it scan, Once it has rescanned, click on the
“plus sign” (+) next to the ASI In, you should see some programs show up.
Drag and drop the services to the desired output.
NOTE: If you need an entire stream to go to an output, you can just drag the whole input over instead
of one at a time.
2.Re-branding the services and channels. Static
PSIP or VCT:
Click on the “Gear” icon of the ASI OUT (Not the individual outs) to make changes to the overall output
From here, you can manipulate the names and numbers.
You can modify elementary PIDS from the “Modify Elementary Streams” button
Be sure to hit save when you’re done.

3.Modifying the Elementary Streams
On the bottom half of the Edit Outputs pages is the table of Elementary Streams. Below that is the
“Modify Elementary Stream button”.
NOTE: All PIDS are in Hexadecimal.
That will take you to the Modify Elementary Streams page. From there, you can change the PIDS
as needed. BE CAREFUL, Every PID needs to have a Unique number in Hexadecimal. If you
accidentally number 2 PIDS the same, you will create a “PID collision” which will cause sever on-
air implications. If you do not want or need a particular video or audio PID to go through, you can
simply change it to Inactive.

•Event Description (ETT)Entire Audience
Air_date: You have a choice. If you tend to air the same programs every week with little changes,
you can use a day of the week format with 00 being Sunday and Saturday being day 06.
Otherwise, put in the actual day the program airs minus your GMT offset. EXAMPLE: 9:00 PM.
Eastern Daylight Time in Florida is actually 01:00 UTC the next day.
Air_time: PSIP is set on a UTC standard. (Coordinated Universal Time, Greenwich Mean Time or
Zulu Time). Therefore, you must add that to the program times of the stations time zone. If the
station is currently on Eastern Daylight Time, the UTC offset is + 4, Eastern Standard time is +5.
Duration: The length of the program in Hours and minutes.
Event ID. Start your first program of the day with this and repeat it daily.
Event Title: The actual name of the show
Event Description: A brief description of the show.
Entire Audience: Use G, PG, PG13, R for audience ratings.
Once you have an Excel sheet done, it should look like this:
8. Save the spreadsheet in the following format: As a tab delimited text file with the following file
name: eit_tsid_maj_min.TXT
tsid = Transport Stream ID,
maj = Major Channel# and
min = Minor Channel#
EXAMPLE: For channel 18.1 with a TSID of 210: EIT_210_18_1.TXT for
for transport stream ID 210, major channel# 18, minor channel# 1.
Move the spreadsheet into the FLEX by using WinSCP: Download WinSCP (Free, safe program

Sending or Receiving ASI Via SRT:
SRT Server (Listener) Setup: This is the side that is sending the SRT
The SRT server sends a transport stream by listening for an SRT client to call and initiate a
connection. Configure the IP port transport stream’s GigE Setting on the Output Port Edit
Transport Stream page.
1. Go to Transport Streams and click on the gear icon by the IP Output
2. Go to bottom of the IP Output page.
3. Disable UDP by setting Destination IPA to 0.0.0.0 and Destination Port to 0.
4. Set GigE MAC to GigE 0 (Host). SRT is only available on GigE 0.
5. Set IP Protocol to SRT.
6. Set the egress rate. (Total aggregate data rate)
7. Set TTL to 100.
8. Set ARQ Server Port to the UDP port you want to use for SRT transmission. If the SRT
listener is behind a firewall, the router must forward the SRT port to the SRT server IP
Address
Be sure to open TCP and UDP on the correct port on your LAN. The
default is 3000, but you can make it any port.
