Chapter 1 Product Outline
1.1 Outline
MTRX IRD is PVI’s new design which integrates demodulation (DVB-C, T/T2, S/S2
optional), de-scrambler and multiplexing in one case to convert RFsignals into TS output.
It is a 1-U case which supports 4 tuner inputs, 1 ASI and 4 IP inputs. The 4 CAMs/CIs
accompanied can descramble the programs input from encrypted RF, ASI and IP. The
CAM requires NO unsightly external power cords, cables, or additional remote control
device.
To meet customers’ various requirements, MTRX is also designed to de-mux programs
from any input, and output TS over 48 SPTS.
1.2 Features
4 Tuner inputs (DVB-C, T/T2, S/S2 Optional)
1 ASI & 4 IP (UDP) input for de-mux
One CAM can decrypt multiple programs from Tuners/ASI/IP
IP (48 SPTS) over UDP and RTP/RTSP output;
4 groups of independent ASI out for tuner/IP passthrough (one-to-one)
Support maximum 128 PID mapping per input
LCD display, Remote control and Firmware, web NMS management
Updates via web
Best quality and breakthrough price

Chapter 2 Installation Guide
2.1 Acquisition Check
When user opens the package of the device, it is necessary to check items according
to packing list. Normally it should include the following items:
MTRX 4-in-1 IRD 1pcs
Power Cord 1pcs
If any item ismissing or mismatching with the list above, please contact our company.
2.2 Installation Preparation
When users install device, please follow the below steps. The details of installation
will be described at the rest part of this chapter. Users can also refer rear panel chart
during the installation.
The main content of this chapter including:
Checking the possible device missing or damage during the transportation
Preparing relevant environment for installation
Installing modulator
Connecting signal cables

Power
Requiring device power, air-conditioning power and
lighting power are independent to each other. Device
power requires AC power 100-240V 50-60Hz. Please
carefully check before running.
2.2.3 Grounding Requirement
All function modules’ good grounding is the basis of reliability and stability of
devices. Also, they are the most important guarantee of lightning arresting and
interference rejection. Therefore, the system must follow this rule.
Coaxial cables outer conductor and isolation layer should keep proper electric
conducting with the metal housing of device.

4-in-1 IRD User’s Manual
8 / 38
Grounding conductor must adopt copper conductor in order to reduce high
frequency impedance, and the grounding wire must be as thick and short as
possible.
Users should make sure the 2 ends of grounding wire well electric conducted and
be antirust.
It is prohibited to use any other device as part of grounding electric circuit
The area of the conduction between grounding wire and device’s frame should
be no less than 25mm2.
2.2.4 Frame Grounding
All the machine frames should be connected with protective copper strip. The
grounding wire should be as short as possible and avoid circling. The area of the
conduction between grounding wire and grounding strip should be no less than
25mm2.
2.2.5 Device Grounding
Connecting the device’s grounding rod to frame’s grounding pole with copper wire.
2.3 Wire’s Connection
The grounding wire conductive screw is located at the right end of rear panel, and the
power switch, fuse, power supply socket is just beside ,whose order goes like this,
power switch is on the left ,power supply socket is on the right and the fuse is just
between them.
Connecting Power Cord
User can insert one end into power supply socket, while insert the other end to
AC power.
Connecting Grounding Wire
When the device solely connects to protective ground, it should adopt
independent way, say, share the same ground with other devices. When the
device adopts united way, the grounding resistance should be smaller than 1Ω.
Caution:
Before connecting power cord to MTRX IRD, user should set the power switch

to “OFF”.
2.4 Signal Cable Connection
The signal connections include the connection of input signal cable and the
connection of output signal cable. The details are as follows:
