2.4.3 General
The cassette is equipped with two channel strips (“A” and “B”).
The channel
strips consist of the digital SAT tuners and the digital signal processing levels.
In the head-end station display, the channel strips of the cassette are indicated
with “ Bx …A ” or “ Bx …B ”. The channel strip “ A ” can decode encoded services
via a corresponding CA module. The cassette is controlled with the head-end
station control unit.
Two LEDs provide an indication of the quality of the SAT IF input signal with their
colour. The quality of the received transport stream can also be shown in the
display (“ C/N ” menu). The LEDs for the LAN interface show whether a network
connection exists and whether a data transfer is in progress.
The integrated TPS module (Transport Stream Processing) processes the data
from the demodulated transport streams.
When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display shows the
software version of the control unit.
To operate this cassette the software version of the control unit must be “V 40”
or higher. You can find the current operating software for the control unit and
the cassette, the software “BE-Flash” required for updating and the current as-
sembly instructions on the website “www.gss.de”.
The cassette is designed for use in the following head-end stations:
– STC 1200 – STC 316
– STR 19-8 – PST 19-1

2.5 Software query
Control unit
If necessary, you can activate the indication of the software version of the con-
trol unit manually:
• Press any two keys on the control unit of the head-end station simultaneously
until the display goes dark and the software version, e.g. “V 40” appears.
Cassette
After activating the cassette the software version of the cassette is displayed (s.
page 19).
2.6 How the TPS module works
After decoding QPSK- or 8PSK-modulated signals, the demodulated trans-
port stream can be accessed via the integrated TPS module. This transport
stream, also called data stream, contains several services with the appropriate
data components (video, audio, data and service information), which can be
changed using the TPS module.
In the station filter services can be deleted. This reduces the output data rate.
Additionally services of the different transport streams can be assembled to a
new transport stream.
The transport stream contains data in the form of tables which the receivers
evaluate and require for convenient use. The TPS module can adjust the “Net-
work Information Table” (NIT) to accommodate the new service data. The “NIT”
contains data which is required by the set-top boxes for the automatic search
feature.
Some network operators transmit an operator ID in the transport stream (e.g.
visAvision). By changing the CAT the operator ID can be adjusted to the de-
mands.

3 Assembly
3.1 Installing the cassette
– Ensure the head-end station is mounted so it will not be able to vibrate.
Avoid, for example, mounting the head-end station onto a lift shaft or any
other wall or floor construction that vibrates in a similar way.
– Before installing or changing a cassette unplug the power cable from the
mains power socket.
• Remove the fastening screws 1of an unoccupied slot from the bracket of the
head-end station.
• Insert the cassette in this slot and push it into the housing.
• Align the cassette and apply slight pressure to connect it to the connections of
the board and the HF bus bar.
• Fasten the cassette with the screws 1.
3.2 EMC regulations
To comply with the current EMC regulations, it is necessary to connect the
lines leading in and out of the head-end station using cable terminals.
When mounting the cassette in a head-end station which is installed in a
19” cabinet, make sure the connections leading in and out for the 19” cabi-
net are made using cable terminals.
The attenuation of shielding of the connection lines for ASI and antenna
must meet the requirements for “Class A”.

3.4 Connecting the cassette
• Connect the SAT IF input cables to the SAT IF inputs 4
(channel strip “ A ”) and
2 (channel strip “ B ”) (fig. chap. 3.3).
• Connect the LAN socket 6 .
• Connect the ASI input 8 and the ASI output 9 to the peripheral ASI devices.
3.5 Retrofitting a CA module
The cassette is equipped with a common interface. It allows you to connect a
CA module for various encryption systems and service providers. Encoded serv-
ices can only be decoded with a CA module suitable for the encoding system
and the corresponding smart card. The smart card contains all the information
for authorisation, decoding and subscription.
– Check with the distributor or manufacturer of the CA module to be used
to ensure that it is suitable for decoding several services.
– The hardware and software of this cassette have been thoroughly pre-
pared and tested. Any changes made by service providers to the data
structures in the service data might impair or even prevent this function.
– When working with the CA module, please read the corresponding op-
erating manual from the respective provider.
• Insert the smart card 1into the CA module 2so that the chip 3on the
smart card faces the thicker side (top) of the CA module.
• Insert the CA module into the guide rails of the CA slot 4with the top side
of the CA module facing the top side of the cassette.
• Push the CA module without canting into the guide rails of the CA slot 4and
contact it to the common interface.
