3. Description and connections
3.1.Description
The compact transmodulator headend of ATLAS 64, allows to receive up to 6 transponder of
satellite signals (DVB-S / S2), through its tuners. Each tuner can receive the signal from any of
the 4 available RF inputs. Atlas 64 is able to decode pay-per-view services when a professional
CAM is inserted in any of the 2 slots C.I. Each output mux can combine free or decoded
services, coming from several tuners. The services of the 4 mux can be modulated according to
the DVB-T or DVB-C standard in their RF output. The equipment has the following additional
functions:
•Allow add new channels in the coaxial RF network.
•It is possible combine several headend Atlas 64 to do a complete headend.
•Option to increase the LNB power in 1 volt to compensate the electrical loss in the
installation. For example, a high value of electrical resistance in long cable.
•Priority system for the output services to management the overflow error in the outputs
mux.
•Support LNC and PID filtering
•Easy configuration using the Web interface.

4. Installation
When the device is installed in a wall, keep clean and without obstacles a minimum radius of 15
cm around this equipment for proper ventilation. Connect the cables, from the LNB or
multiswitch to the input RF IN 1 to RF IN 4. The output signals in the RF output can be mixing
with the output terrestrial signals of other headend equipments using the MIX RF connector
before to distribute in the building. If the MIX RF input is not used connect the load 75 Ωisolated
included. To programming the headend, connect a patch cord between the LAN connector and
the computer or connect the both device using a switch or router.
Always remember to turn off the ATLAS 64 headend before to install or remove the CAM to
avoid damage in the headend or the CAM. Before to install, check the side of the logo of the
CAM must be orientating to the back side of the headend.
5. Configuring the compact headend ATLAS 64
5.1.First steps
After finish the installation of the headend Atlas 64 is ready to connect the power. Wait until the
led alarm is off again. This time could be more than three minutes. To configure the
transmodulator is necessary a computer or a mobile device with a web browser. For example:
Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Internet Explorer 9. In this guide is explaining the steps to
configure the Atlas 64 from one computer with Windows operative system using the network
interface Ethernet.
Connect the LAN port of the transmodulator and the interface Ethernet of the computer directly
using a patch cord or use a switch or router between the both devices connecting with 2 patch
cords. By default, the Atlas 64 is configured to obtain the IP address by DHCP.
Windows 10
Click in the Windows start button Settings Network and Internet Ethernet
Change Adapter Settings. Right click on “Local Area Connection” and then select “Properties” in
the contextual menu.
Follow the next steps to set the properties of the Internet protocol Version 4. Double click on
“Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)” to enter the IP settings of your adaptor.
