The presence of this symbol is to alert the installer and user to the presence of uninsulated potentially
dangerous voltages within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to produce a risk of
electric shock.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS DEVICE
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY.
•DO NOT terminate, change or uninstall any wiring without first disconnecting the unit’s power
adapter from the device.
•This device is supplied with the appropriately rated power supply. The use of any other power supply
could cause damage and invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
•DO NOT connect the power cord to the device if the power cord or unit is damaged.
•DO NOT cut the power cord.
•DO NOT plug the power cord into an AC outlet until all cables and connections to the device have
been properly connected.
•The device should be installed in an environment consistent with its operating temperature
specifications. Placement next to heating devices and ducts is to be avoided as doing so may cause
damage. The device should not be placed in areas of high humidity.
•DO NOT cover any of the device’s ventilation openings.
•If the device has been in a cold environment allow it to warm to room temperature for at least 2 hours
before connecting to an AC outlet.
IMPORTANT
•ALWAYS remove any network/ethernet connection from the HD Encoder after configuring it to
insure its security and highest performance
•Use high quality cables and connectors and insure all connections are tight
•Test the coaxial cable RF output at the TV to insure the levels are well within the TV input range
•Use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox as the web browser when configuring the
HD Encoder. Google Chrome is preferred.
•During the web browser Admin Reboot process, use a new Google Chrome “Incognito Window” to
eliminate caching-related confusion and issues.
•The factory Default is shown on the outside of the shipping box for RF output. Any unit can be
setup as J.83, or ATSC, or DVB-T, or ISDB-Tb. Example, if DVB-T output is desired
(example: for Colombia installation) then the RF Setup Menu > Channel Type must be
changed to DVB-T. The factory DEFAULT is set on a country by country basis for ease of
each country’s customer.
•The hardware and software product trademarks are the property of their respective owners, including

3.0 STEP A: HARDWARE INSTALL & CONNECTIONS
Unpacking and Inspection
Each unit is shipped factory tested. Ensure all items are removed from the container prior to discarding
any packing material.
Thoroughly inspect the unit for shipping damage with particular attention to connectors and controls. If
there is any sign of damage to the unit or damaged or loose connectors contact your distributor
immediately. Do not put the equipment into service if there is any indication of defect or damage.
Making the Connections Overview
It is highly recommended that the highest quality cables and connectors be used for all video and audio
source connections.
1.Ensure the video Source has output: including powered up AND NOT IN SLEEP MODE.
2.Connect the HDMI cable/Component cables/Composite cables to the HD Encoder from the Source.
3.Connect the included Audio cable from the source to the 3.5mm Audio L/R connector on the HD
Encoder if analog audio is needed
4.Connect the composite cable to the CVBS input for Closed Caption
5.Connect the included AC power adapter cord to the HD Encoder’s 12VDC Power receptacle at the
rear.
6.Connect the AC adapter to an appropriately rated AC power outlet.
7.Test the RF output with a CATV meter to ensure that it is within the input range of the connected
TV’s. If “Freerun” is shown on the LCD then the Source is not working correctly or connected
8.Connect to the coaxial distribution using the “F” connector at the rear of the HD Encoder. Use a
high quality 75Ω coaxial cable with compression-type “F” connectors from the HD Encoder’s
RF Output. Ensure that all connections are tight.
9.When the HD Encoder configuration is complete – disconnect the HD Encoder from the
network/Ethernet to insure its security and highest performance
4.0 HD Encoder Programming/Setup
To setup and program the Netceed HD ENCODER DELUXE you can use either the device’s LCD
Front Panel and buttons or the Web/GUI Interface. The programming of the settings is easiest by using
the Web Interface in Section 4.3.
4.1 HD Encoder Front Panel Display
Press UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to scroll through the display information.
➢Main Menu: Input information and Output Name >> Short name, and Bitrate
➢Main Menu: VCN information >> VCN, Channel, and Frequency

4.2 Using the HD Encoder Front Panel for Setup
When the unit is powered up it will first go through an internal booting and short self-test and then be
ready for operation or initial setup. The USA factory default is for J.83B RF output. If a different
video output is desired (example: for Mexico installation) then the RF Setup Menu > Channel Type
must be changed to ATSC. The FACTORY DEFAULT is shown on the label.
NOTE: Factory default for Colombia is DVB-T. Factory default for Mexico is ATSC. The rest of
Latin America factory default is ISDB-Tb. ALL VERSIONS ARE USER-SELECTABLE: J.83
QAM, ATSC, DVB-T, or ISDB-Tb – just the factory defaults change depending on the “ship to”
country.
Press “OK” Button to enter the setup MAIN MENU system.
The front panel LCD password is: 0000
Enter the password by adjusting each digit by using the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons – then press “OK”
when the digit is correct. Press “OK” to enter Main Menu. For security purposes the HD Encoder will
timeout and return to a password protected mode if no buttons are pressed for about 10 seconds.

VCN Mode: Auto (two-part) - VCN will be set based on the Channel output selected in “RF Output
Menu: RF”.
Example: Output Channel set to 2. VCN for device will be set at 2.1
This is automatically set by the CH output set in the RF Setup section.
VCN Mode (Manual two-part) - VCN Manual 2-part- will allow the installer to control VCN channel
regardless of the CH/freq. selected on the RF Output Setup page of the device.
Examples:
RF CH VCN Channel
57 55.1

4.3 Using the HD Encoder Web Interface
4.3.1 Overview of the Process
Product Factory Default IP: 192.168.1.9 and with DHCP - Disabled
1. Connect an Ethernet cable directly (no Cross Over cable required) to the Web Management
Port on the rear panel of the HD Digital Encoder or connect the device’s Ethernet cable to an
Ethernet switch. Connect Ethernet Cable to your PC/Laptop.
2. Modify your PC/Laptop IP address to static address 192.168.1.10
3. Turn off the WIFI on your PC/Laptop if applicable
4. Enter ‘192.168.1.9’ into your web browser to access the Web Interface of the HD Encoder.
5. Enter the Web Interface and make any required device changes.
6. Save all changes as required and then reboot the device.
7. Verify parameters have changed and then end your web session.
As an alternative, the HD ENCODER static IP Address may be configured (or DHCP enabled) on the
front panel and then the Web Browser can be used for all other configuration changes by using the IP
Address which will be displayed on the LCD. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN USING THE DEFAULT IP
ADDRESS AND CONNECTING TO AN EXISTING NETWORK – THERE MAY BE CONFLICT
WITH EXISTING INSTALLED HARDWARE – THIS MUST ALWAYS BE AVOIDED.
4.3.2 Login
•Use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox as the web browser when configuring the
HD Encoder. Google Chrome is preferred.
•During the web browser Admin Reboot process, use a new Google Chrome “Incognito Window” to
eliminate caching-related confusion and issues.
Open Your Internet Browser:
Use the PC web browser - type in the HD Encoder Deluxe’s IP Address. The current IP Address can be
viewed on the front panel LCD by pressing the UP ARROW twice to see “Management IP”.
