Heat
- The product should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other products (including ampliers) that produce
heat.
- Do not place naked ame sources on the meter,
such as lighted candles.
Electrical Supply, Grounding, and Surge Protection
Ensure that all local or national electrical codes are
followed. The products of safety class I with movable
power and single plug can only be plugged into
sockets with safety pin and protective conductor
connected.
In case of products with double
power supply, please make sure
you disconnect the two of them
before handling the unit.
The interruption of the protective conductor is
prohibited in both the plug and the meter. The
disruption may result in the risk that the product is a
source of electric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
power strips as this may cause re or electric shock.
Class
- Operation of this equipment in a residential
environment may cause radio interference.

Overview
Introducing RCS
Gsertel’s RCS ATSC is a network professional
monitoring platform that allows the remote,
proactive, simultaneous and real-time ATSC 3.0
and ATSC 1.0 digital television multiplex, both at
RF and transport levels.
With a compact format, 1RU, all the processing
and analysis necessary to obtain the monitoring
results is done on the equipment, not needing
any additional element except a standard web
browser to display the information.
The capability of parallel processing up to 4
multiplex and simultaneously by RF, ASI or IP,
makes the RCS a powerful tool for early detection
and diagnosis of potential failures in a ATSC
network.
The intuitive web interface of the RCS, which
allows an easy and quick access to all functions,
coupled with unique features such as the
powerful spectral analysis and capabilities of
streaming or Transport Stream recording make the
RCS an ideal solution for headend, transmission
sites or eld locations.
Key features
Very intuitive and user friendly interface
Proactive detection of signal problems
Time reduction in distribution and
transmission network diagnostic and
troubleshooting.
Attractive cost-benet solution for the signal
in-depth analysis
Flexible and scalable in functionality
architecture (software licenses)
High accuracy in measurement
Full integration with third parties’ NMS
PASS/FAIL indicators: Icons indicate if a
measurement is good, bad or in the warning
zone for quick and easy status check.
Availability of the latest features through the
automatic detection of new software versions
“All in One”screen that allows analyzing at a
glance the status of a channel from several points
of view: radiofrequency, transport and alarms

Start Up
1.- Place the RCS in the rack
2.- Connect the RCS to power supply
3.- Connect the RCS to internet, using the Ethernet
connector
4.- Turn the RCS on by pressing the button
5.- When the RCS starts, the display will show the
Info menu, so you will see the IP assigned to your
RCS . By default, the RCS is shipped in DHCP mode,
so the IP will be assigned automatically.
To enter a certain xed IP, press the Setup button
and select the STATIC option. Then you must enter
an IP address within the range of your network,
using the buttons , and
6.- Open a web browser (Google Chrome

of your RCS into the address bar of your web
browser:
8.- Then the Login window of the Web Application
appears.
To access the application, you must introduce an
user name and the corresponding password. For
the rst time, you must use the following ones:
User: admin
Password: rcs
Once you have entered in your application,
you will be able to change your user name and
your password, as well as the IP address of your
RCS (see section Conguration-Device-Control
Network).
