Installing Selenio Modules in an
MCP3 Frame
Where space allows, Selenio DEC1 and DEC2 modules can be installed in any MCP3 frame. Additionally,
Selenio DEC2 modules are available as part of pre‐configured MCP1 packages.
You can insert a Selenio module into an MCP3 frame with the power supply turned on or off. Follow this
procedure:
1. Remove a blank back module from the frame, saving the blank back modules and their captive
screws for future configurations.
2. Attach the new back module to the empty slot, using the mounting screws provided.
Align the back module’s pin into the guide hole, and ensure that the EMI gaskets separating the back
modules remain in place during the installation. The EMI gaskets fit tightly. To ease the installation
of back modules, gradually press each back module into place from the left side to the right side.
Figure 5: Installing Back Modules
3. Apply labels to the back module, if these are supplied separately.

4. Print out this page and write down the placement of the back modules in the diagram below (back
modules appear on the reverse side when viewed from the front).
Figure 6: Writing Space for Identifying Back Modules
CAUTION:
Do not mix and match back and front modules. The front module must mate with a back module
of the same product.
5. Open the front panel and then slide the correct front modules into the slots that match the back
modules.
Note: It may be necessary to rotate the front support post to allow unrestricted access to the
targeted slot. Ensure that the white extractor handle is at the top of the module, facing
outward, as the module is inserted.
6. Push the module until it seats properly, ensuring the edge of the module is flush with the edge of
the module guides, and the square extractor handle clicks into its slot.
7. Install the remaining back and front modules, make all of the necessary rear connections, and then
close the front panel.
CAUTION:
To prevent overheating during frame operation, keep the front panel closed and all back module
slots covered.
Removing Selenio Modules from an
MCP3 Frame
Front Module
To remove a front module from a Selenio frame, follow this procedure:
1. Open the front panel.
2. Grasp the extractor handle on the module, pulling down slightly.

Installation and Operation Manual Powering Up a Module
© 2014 Imagine Communications Corp. Proprietary and Confidential. Version 7.0 | Page 17
3. Using the handle, slide the module out of its slot.
Figure 7: Removing a Front Module
4. Close the front panel to ensure proper frame ventilation.
Back Module
To remove a back module from a Selenio frame, you must first remove the front module. Then unscrew
the back module, and pull it straight out. Cover the opening with a blank back module to ensure proper
frame ventilation.
Powering Up a Module
The SEL‐1DEC1 and SEL‐1DEC2 modules are ready for use when their parameters appear in the Selenio
UI. The Maximum power consumption of an SEL‐1DEC1 or SEL‐1DEC2 module is 40W. Selenio modules
are automatically powered up when they are inserted into a live (powered up) frame, and whenever the
frame is powered up.

Installation and Operation Manual Upgrading Module Firmware
© 2014 Imagine Communications Corp. Proprietary and Confidential. Version 7.0 | Page 18
Upgrading Module Firmware
All module firmware upgrades are activated in the frame controller section of the Selenio user interface.
Follow this path to find the appropriate parameters: Configuration > Frame Controller > Configuration
tab > Upgrade Firmware.
See the Selenio frame manual for information on how to upgrade module firmware.
In the unlikely event of an upgrade failure, use the Upgrade Failure Instructions of this manual.
Upgrade Failure Instructions
The SEL‐1DEC1 and SEL‐1DEC2 modules include one user‐configurable DIP switch array (SW2), located at
the card edge next to the extractor. In normal operation, all four switches are in the Off position. In the
unlikely event of corrupted software, you may need to temporarily change the setting of Switch 1 for
the failsafe mode override. You would be alerted to this problem if a System Recovery Upgrade
Required fault was triggered after an upgrade, and the module had finished rebooting.
If a System Recovery Upgrade Required fault is triggered, you should first try using the alternate
firmware (see Activating Alternate Firmware in the Selenio frame manual) and then attempt the
upgrade again. If this second attempt fails, follow these steps to activate the failsafe mode:
1. Remove the module from the frame and then push Switch 1 to the On position (see Figure ).
Figure 8: DIP Switch Setting for Failsafe Mode
2. Reinsert the module.
3. Install the new module software using the Selenio user interface.

Installation and Operation Manual Accessing MIBs
© 2014 Imagine Communications Corp. Proprietary and Confidential. Version 7.0 | Page 19
4. Remove the module, and then return Switch 1 to the Off position.
5. Reinsert the module.
The module is now running the new software.
Accessing MIBs
MIB files for all modules can be downloaded directly from any Selenio frame. MIBs are generated on a
per‐device basis. For example, if there are seven SEL‐1DEC1 modules in a frame, only one of the seven 7
MIBs is required, assuming all of the modules are using the same version of software. If the frame
includes multiple modules of the same type, but different software versions, the module with the latest
version should be used to generate the MIB.
If an older MIB is used with newer firmware (for example, an older version of firmware was used instead
of the latest firmware), the new parameters added to the new version will not be available on the MIB,
and thus, will not be accessible via the MIB.
Before downloading module MIBs, you must first download the InfrastructureNetwork.mib file. Copy
the following into a browser to access the InfrastructureNetwork.mib:
http://<IP address>/InfrastructureNetwork.mib
<IP address> is that of the primary controller in the frame
Once any MIB file is downloaded from the frame, you should rename it immediately to prevent
overwriting.
To download a specific module MIB file, copy this line into a browser:
http://<IP address>/mib/slot<slot#>/snmp.mib
<IP address> is that of the primary controller in the frame
<slot#> is the slot in the frame, as seen from the front
Examples:
http://137.237.173.15/mib/slot0/snmp.mib
Accesses the controller MIB from frame 137.237.173.15.
http://137.237.173.15/mib/slot7/snmp.mib
Accesses the MIB for slot 7from 137.237.173.15

Installation and Operation Manual IP LAN
© 2014 Imagine Communications Corp. Proprietary and Confidential. Version 7.0 | Page 20
IP LAN
The SEL‐1DEC1 and SEL‐1DEC2 IP LANs communicate with external IP networks via the Data ports on the
primary and secondary frame controller. If your decoder will use data Ethernet from external sources,
you will need to set the Primary and Secondary IP addresses for the decoder; these IP addresses will be
unique to this decoder module.
When configuring the decoder via the Block Diagram View of the GUI, the following parameters are
accessed via the block labeled IP LAN. When configuring the decoder via the All (tree) View of the GUI,
the following parameters are accessed via the Control > IP LAN branch of the tree.
General
Data Ethernet Protection
Use this parameter to specify whether the Primary or Secondary Ethernet interface should be used for
IP input or alternately, select Automatic protection switching. If enabled, Seamless Protection can be
selected using the Data Ethernet Protection drop down menu.
Primary and Secondary Data Ethernet
Use these controls to set the Primary and Secondary IP Address, IP Mask, IP Gateway, and VLAN ID,
and to observe the Primary/Secondary Data Eth MAC addresses. Press Apply to enable the changes.
There are no default IP addresses for the decoder module.
Transport Stream Input
General
Primary Source and Alternate Source
The transport stream input signal can originate from external ASI connections (EXT ASI 1 and—for DEC2
only, EXT ASI 2), an internal IP network (CXN) or an external Ethernet (Ext IP). To enable the external
Ethernet as a source, you must enter the Primary or Secondary IP address. The Alternate Source
provides a backup in the event of a loss of signal from the Primary Source. (To provide an alternate
source for IP inputs, see Data Ethernet Protection (on page 20) above.) In Seamless Protection mode,
the two IP stream addresses are entered in the Primary and Secondary IP address fields.
