1.InstallationInstruction
1.1 Mounting unit to a 19” rack
When selecting the installation site, try to comply with the following:
zProtective Ground - The protective ground lead of the building's electrical
installation should comply with national and local requirements.
zEnvironmental Condition - The installation site should be dry, clean, and
ventilated. Do not use this equipment where it could be at risk of contact with water.
To avoid electric shock, make sure the rack has been correctly grounded
before switching on the device.
PIC-1.1-1
To mount the unit to a 19”/42U rack, please perform the following steps:
1. Make sure the mounted rack surface is stable and can support the size and weight of this
equipment.
2. For single unit mounting, use an “L” shape slide (not included in the package) to support
holding the unit if necessary, and fastened with appropriate screws to each side of the
chassis’ rails.
L-shape slide
3. For group pile up (no space between each unit), the unit should be placed on a flat
holding bracket. No more than 5 units for each group, and leave at least one unit space
between each group to ensure good air ventilation.

1.2 Wiring Connection
Before setting up the connection, please turn off the equipment and all other
connected external devices. The equipment and all connected external devices are
required grounded. Turn on the devices only after the wiring connection is completed.
Otherwise the device may be damaged.
Follow the below connection diagram to set up cable connection:

zSet up cable connection for input signal: either the SDI/CVBS input (area 1), ASI input
(area 2) or TS/IP input (area 4)

zSet up cable connection for output signal: either through ASI (area 3) or TS/IP (area 4)
zSet up connection for network management control: shown in area 5.
In order to ensure a smooth communication between the management PC and
the equipment, please separate the connection of management port and TS/IP output
port to different switch. The switch with management port connected should be
without large data processing.
The TS/IP port can work for input and output simultaneously. User only needs
to connect one RJ45 cable to the TS/IP port of the device.
1.3 Power Connection
Connect this equipment only to the power sources that are identified on the
equipment-rating label normally located close to the power inlet connector(s).
Always pull on the plug or the connector to disconnect a cable. Never pull on the
cable itself.
To protect your valuable interests and services, equipping a UPS
(Uninterrupted Power Supply) and an AVR (Automated Voltage Regulator) to the
system is highly recommended.

2.OperationInstructions
2.1 Powering Up & Initializations
Before powering-up the device, make sure that all cables are correctly
connected (refer to chapter 1.2). The device is correctly connected to the power inlet
and grounded.
Switch on the equipment through the back power switch, the unit is powered up and start the
initialization.
The LCD screen is lighted up, and display information as following:
The initialization takes about 20 seconds to complete.
If the unit fails to initialize and hangs at the “booting” stage, swtiching off the
device and then powering up again may help. If the device still fails to initialize,
please contact your service representative for help.
2.2 Network Connection Setup
2.2.1 Navigation Keys Operation Instruction
Use the 6 navigation keys on front panel: Up / Down / Left / Right / Menu / Ok to
enter the configuration menu.
zEnter “Menu”:
Press “MENU” button to enter main menu.
zExit Menu/Back to parent Menu
Upon completion of configuration settings, press “MENU” button until you go back
to the Parent Menu.
You can also go back to Parent Menu directly by pressing “ESC” button once.
zEnter Sub-Menu

Select a sub-menu by pressing arrow UP and arrow DOWN button.
Press OK button on the selected sub-menu.
zTo change parameter
Step 1: Enter main menu by pressing MENU button.
Step 2: Scroll sub-menu by pressing arrow UP and arrow DOWN button, and press
OK button to change the selected sub-menu.
Step 3: To change parameter settings, press arrow RIGHT and arrow LEFT button
to move the cursor in which change must be made.
Press arrow UP button and arrow DOWN to input / select an appropriate setting,
then press OK button to save.
2.2.2 Check Out and Change the Default IPAddress
zStep 1: check out the IP on the LCD screen.
zStep 2: use the button on the front panel to change the IP, gateway and subnet mask.
The gateway should be the same as the management PC’s. The subnet mask should
be the same as the management PC’s s. The IP and the server’s IP should be in the
same section.
zStep 3: reboot the device to take effect.
zStep 4: ping the new IP on PC to check whether the SMP260 can connect to the
management PC.
2.2.3 Configuration through NMS
Accessing the equipment through NMS can be very convenient for remote
configuration of the equipment. Relative to the front panel settings, NMS operation
can provide a more user-friendly man-machine interface, and less limits in space. For
quick installation, NMS operation is highly recommended. In this installation guide,
operation instruction is based on NMS style. For front panel operation, please refer to
product user manual.
zInstall the NMS Tool
Unpack the accessory CD, and put it on a PC CD/DVD driver;

SMP Encoder & Transcoder Quick Installation Guide V1.0-N
Copy the NMS program on the CD to any folder of the management PC;
Use mouse to double click the NMS icon and run the NMS program.
zFirst Time Log On
oFor first time log on, User Name and Password are required. Default User Name
and Password are “admin”.
PIC-2.2-1
oChoose “Remember Me” if user wants to directly log on the NMS without inputting
the user name and password.
oSelect “Login” to log on the device.
Possible reasons for unsuccessful log on:
zIP address/ network mask/gateway don’t match with the management PC’s
zUser name/password is wrong
zWrong NMS version
zMain Interface Introduction
After successful log on, the following screen will display:

The interface can be divided into four areas according to its functionality.
(1) Toolbar. It includes shortcut to change password and save setting etc.
(2) Equipment list. If more than a piece of equipment is connected to the NMS, the
equipment will be listed in this area by its IP address.
(3) Parameter setting and configuration area. The parameters of the equipment are
shown and configured here by selecting different tabs. This is the main operation area
of the NMS.
(4) Event information window.
2.3 Quick Configuration on Key Parameters
2.3.1 Check “Status” tab
“Status” tab: by selecting this item, the NMS displays the current system operation data
status of the equipment. User can swtich between tab under the “Status” to check the
current working status of the equipment

Different colors of histogram indicate different meaning:①
Orange: the total input bit rate;
Blue: the effective input bit rate;
Yellow: the total output bit rate;
Green: the effective output bit rate;
Red: alarm indicator, it means the actual output bit rate (it’s proportional to the amount of the
programs you transfer from input port to output port in ‘Program Info’) is more than the
output bit rate of some channel you set in sub-board.
Communicate Status indicates the communication status between NMS and②the
equipment.
Green: the communication is normal. All the parameters in NMS are updated according to
the equipment synchronously.
Red: the communication is abnormal. The parameters in NMS may be not updated in time.
You need check the network connection and restart the NMS.
