EK HOTEL TV BASIC USER MANUAL
Introduction.
Description:
The EK HOTEL TV BASIC works as a middleware which enables the aggregation of audio and video
services transported in multicast and/or WebTV for its distribution and reception in IPTV devices (STB
IP BASIC).
It enables the personalized sorting of channels by device, being able to organize same by user or by
groups of users according to their profile (age, language, preferences, ...). The system likewise enables
the creation of channel packages and grouping into “products” for their assignment to users.
The EK HOTEL TV BASIC has a management system for the STB IP BASIC (180012) receivers which
enables:
•Monitoring the status of all receivers connected to the head-end.
•Switching the receivers on and off individually, collectively or by segments.
•Activate, deactivate and change channels in the receivers individually, collectively or by
segments.
•Adjust the volume of the receivers.
•Update the EK application of each receiver individually or collectively.
•Activate and deactivate the parental PIN for selected channels.
•Creation of an internal warning/alarm channel (requires an external source).
The system enables basic configuration of the management portal. Furthermore, the network manager
can establish the logo and name of each service, include a platform logo and configure the general and
specific organization of services by user or by user group.
The option of incorporating EPG (electronic program guide) to the distributed IPTV channels is included.
This requires connection to the EK EPG product (additional service).
Key features.
•IPTV multi-channel HOTEL and web TV processing server for hotels.
•Simplified configuration portal.
•Channel list management and customizable information per user.
•Remote management of STB IP BASIC devices.
