This manual describes the configuration and settings programme for the TNS-101 Streamer Module.
It is the second part of the user documentation for said module, the first part of which is the Installation
and Access manual supplied in paper format.
Product Description
TNS-101 streamers are DVB-T to IP gateways designed to broadcast in multicast the services (TV and Radio
programmes) issued from FTA or encrypted digital terrestrial reception; in case of encrypted signal, a CAM
containing the operator's smart card must fit the front panel slot. The IP streams can be viewed using an IPTV
set-top box or a software video player.
TNS-101 modules have an IKUSI ClassA mechanical format. As such, they are fixed to BAS-700 / BAS-900
baseplates or to an SMR-601 rack frame, and are +12 VDC powered from a CFP module.
Characteristics
●Input: 1 DVB-T transport stream (MPTS). Output: up to 8 simultaneous, IP-encapsulated services (TV programmes), with
individual multicast addresses.
●Information filtering of DVB tables.
●UDP & RTP transmission protocols.
●Web interface for configuration and setting.
●Alarm information SNMP agent.
●SAP & SDP protocols that facilitate automatic service selection on the user's STB and provide information to external servers.
ADVANCED
PID filtering

Figure 1.2 - Identification card of the Configuration window.
Initial program screen
The first screen that appears
when the programme is
accessed contains the "Output"
window, which gives information
on the IP streams that have
been created on the module and
which may or may not be
incorporated into the output data
stream.
On the left of this screen are the
menus that access all of the
programme's functionalities.
Click on the General menu on the left of the screen to display a dropdown list
containing the 3 options: Configuration, Save/Restore and General Report.
Click on Configuration. The Configuration window will appear :
Identification
The identification card (Figure 1.2) provides basic data on the TNS-101 streamer. The
different card fields are completed as follows:
Configuration

"Model": TNS-101. This data cannot be changed.
"Serial Number": Informational data which cannot be changed.
"Firmware Version": As above.
"Identifier": Any name that the installer or operator wishes to assign to the streamer
module can be entered here.
"Location": Enter the postcode of the installation site if required.
"Installer": The installer's identification details can be entered here.
"Contact": Then enter their contact details (telephone number, email).
"Installation date": The date on which the streamer module was installed can be

Network
Click on the Network tab to configure the streamer's ethernet connection parameters.
The following card is displayed:
Figure 1.3 - Network card of the Configuration window.
"Use DHCP to get IP address": If this box is checked, the TNS-101 module will use
the DHCP protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses. Consequently, no data
needs to be entered in the next five fields on the tab.
If the administrator of the network on which the TNS headend is installed assigns
static IP addresses, the box will not be checked and the following fields will need to
be filled in.
WARNING: If this option is activated, the IP address assigned to the streamer can
only be known by consulting the DHCP server management system.
"IP Address": Enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the streamer. This
address must fall within the range of local network addresses.
"Network mask": Enter the local network mask.
"Default gateway": Enter the IP address of this gateway. This information is only
required if you want the streamer to access Internet.
"Primary DNS server": Enter the primary server's IP address. Equally, this
information is only required if you want the streamer to access Internet.
"Secondary DNS server": Enter the same information for the secondary server.
"MAC Address": The physical address of the streamer's ethernet network card is
displayed automatically.
Once you have filled in all of the required information, click on Modify Network Configuration. If, at the last moment,
you decide to keep the current settings, click on Restore.

Once you have entered the required information, click on Modify so that the streamer adopts the new access
password. If, at the last moment, you decide to keep the previous password, click on Cancel.
If you do not know the old password, i.e. the password used to access the current configuration
session, you must perform a Password Reset as explained in the Installation and Access manual.
Following this reset, the program password will be the default password: admin.
IMPORTANT: When you perform a password reset, the IP address assigned to the streamer on the
Network card (previous page) automatically changes to the default setting: http:// 92.168.1.4.
