1 Safety regulations and notes
• Assembly, installation and servicing should be carried out by authorised
electricians.
• Switch off the operating voltage of the system before beginning with as-
sembly or service work or pull out the mains plug.
• Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.
• Install the system so it will not be able to vibrate…
- in a dust-free, dry environment
- in such a manner that it is protected from moisture, fumes, splashing
water and dampness
- somewhere protected from direct sunlight
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
- in an ambient temperature of -20 °C to +50 °C.
• Ensure that the head-end station is adequately ventilated. Do not cover
the ventilation slots.
• Beware of short circuits
• No liability is accepted for any damage caused by faulty connections or
inappropriate handling.
• Observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines on the instal-
lation and operation of antenna systems.
• Earth the SAT receiver in accordance with DIN EN 50083-1 / 60728-11
and VDE 0855 (earthing, equipotential bonding rail).

Take action to prevent static discharge when working on the device.
Electronic devices should never be disposed of in the household rubbish. In
accordance with directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and
the European Council from January 27, 2003 which addresses old elec-
tronic and electrical devices, such devices must be disposed of at a desig-
nated collection facility. At the end of its service life, please take your

2.4 Description
The twin transmodulator cassette is a QPSK-converter, which converts all sta-
tions modulated according to DVB-S and QPSK standard into two PAL-modulated
cable signals. The cassette has two digital SAT IF inputs and an HF output. It is
equipped with two channel strips. Each channel strip consists of a digital tuner,
a digital signal preparation unit and a modulator. The cassette ‘s channel strips
are indicated by “Bx …A“ or “Bx …B” in the control unit display.
The channel strip “A” can decode encoded channels via a corresponding CA
module. Depending on the CA module and the smart card, two channels can
be decoded simultaneously with one CA module, with the second one supplied
via channel strip “B”. Using the integrated time control you can select alternate
channels. The control of the cassette takes place via the control unit of the head-
end station.
Two LEDs provide an indication of the SAT IF input signal quality based on their
colour. Additionally the quality of the transport stream received is displayed
(“CN…”). If the data of channel strip ”A” are used in channel strip ”B” the status
LED of channel strip ”B” is switched off.
The prepared input signals reach the HF output collector of the head-end station
via the HF output socket. The common output level of the channel strips can be
set at the HF output collector of the head-end station.
When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display briefly 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”
and the current assembly instructions on the website “www.gss.de”.
The cassette is designed for use in the following head-end stations:
– PSU 12
– PSU 8
– PGT 8

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 afterwards
the software version, e.g. “ V 40 ”
and the system clock frequency (e.g. “ 16 MHz “)appears.
Cassette
After activating the cassette the software version of the cassette is displayed (s.
page 18).
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 output collector .
• Fasten the cassette with the 1screws.

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 must meet the require-
ments for “Class A”.
• Insert the required number of cable terminals in the openings provided in the
head-end station or in the 19 " cabinet.
—> Cable terminals are not included in the scope of delivery.
Tighten the nut on the cable terminals until the teeth on the lock washer have
penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the
housing and cable terminal.

3.4 Connecting the cassette
• Connect the SAT IF input
3 (channel strip “ A ”) and SAT IF input 1 (channel
strip “ B ”) to the respective outputs of the SAT IF input distributor.
• Connect the head-end station to the mains power supply.
3.5 Updating the software
The RS 232 interface of the cassette $enables you to use a PC or a notebook
and the “BE-Flash” software to update the software of the cassette.
You can find the “BE-Flash” software and the current operating software of the
cassette at the website ”www.gss.de” .
• Use a “one-to-one cable” to connect the cassette’s RS 232 interface and the
PC according to the wiring scheme below.
—> If necessary use a standard RS-232/USB adapter.
• Start the “BE-Flash” software and update the software of the cassette.

3.6 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
channels can only be decoded with a CA module suitable for the encoding
system and the corresponding smart card. The smart card contains all the infor-
mation 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 2 channels.
– The hardware and software of this cassette have been thoroughly pre-
pared and tested.
– Any changes made by program providers to the structures in the program
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 1 into the CA module 2 so that the chip 3 on 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.
