1 safety regulations and notes
The devices meet the EU directives 2011/65/EU, 2014/30/EU and
2014/35/EU.
This device is subject to the provisions of protection class I. Operate the
device only to mains sockets with protective conductor connection!
If the power cords need to be replaced, only use OEM power cords.
The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 must be
observed, especially concerning equipotential bonding and earthing.
Observe the relevant country-specific standards, regulations and guidelines
on the installation and operation of antenna systems.
Before starting installation or service work disconnect the receiving system
from mains.
Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.
Assembly, installation and servicing must be carried out by an authorised
electrician.
Caution! Dangerous voltage! For a complete disconnection from the mains,
both mains plugs must be pulled out of the mains sockets. Ensure that the
mains plugs can be pulled out without difficulties.
• The head-end station should only be installed in a room where the permis-
sible ambient temperature range (0 °C … +50 °C ) can be maintained, even
during fluctuations in climatic conditions.
• To avoid too strong interacted heating of the head-end stations it is not
admissible to mount them one upon the other without using thermic precau-
tions (e.g. permanently air recirculation, ventilation etc.).
If additional fans are to be used to circulate the air, ensure that the system
will be shut down (disconnected from mains) should any one of the fans fail.
Install the head-end station
- in a dry, dust-free environment, in such a manner that it is protected from
moisture, fumes, splashing water and dampness
- where it is protected from direct exposure to sunlight
- on a vibration-free wall or floor construction
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
In case of the formation of condensation wait until the system is completely
dried.
Ensure that the head-end station is adequately ventilated.
Do not cover the ventilation openings!
Do not install the head end in cabinets or recesses which are not ventilated.
Do not place any vessels containing liquids on the head-end station.
- 4 - STI 1916 CT
Do not place anything on the head-end station which could initiate fires
(e.g. candles).
Due to the risk of fires caused by lightning strikes, we recommend that
all mechanical parts (e.g. distributor, equipotential bonding rail, etc.) be
mounted on a non-combustible base. Wood panelling, wooden beams,
plastic covered panels and plastic panels are all examples of combustible
bases.
Avoid short circuits!
To ensure electromagnetic compatibility, make sure all connections are tight
and that the covers are screwed on securely.
No liability is accepted for damage caused by faulty connections or inap-
propriate handling of the device.
The firmware contains components which are licensed as Open Source
software. The components to which this relates and the respective license
terms can be called up via menu Help/Licences.
This parts of software source code can be provided at cost price on CD
upon request. The licensee is granted a non-exclusive right of use for the
Open Source Software by the respective right holders used; the conditions
stipulated by the respective valid license terms apply. The license terms of
this license only apply to the components which are not listed as Open
Source software.
In relation to the licensor the regulations on liability and warranty in these
license terms apply for the whole software. The liability and warranty regu-
lations of the Open Source licenses only apply in relation to the respective
right holders.
Test the firmware versions of the device and update them if necessary. The
current firmware version can be found at "www.mygss.eu".
Take action to prevent static discharge when working on the device!
Electronic devices should never be disposed of in the household rubbish. In accordance
with directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and the European Council from
January 27, 2003 which addresses old electronic and electrical devices, such devices
must be disposed of at a designated collection facility. At the end of its service life,
please take your device to one of these public collection facilities for proper disposal.

Server
If the Control input is connected to
the Internet, after the initial setup,
you can get worldwide access to the
station via an OpenVPN connection
– by PC, tablet or smart phone with
Internet access.
—> When using mobile terminals – dependent on your mobile contract
additional connection costs / data transfer costs may also be
incurred here.
16 LEDs provide an indication of the status of the 16 lines based on their col-
our and indicate if the respective modulator is switched on (LED illuminates) or
off. The LEDs are blinking red/green during data overflow.
The station is powered by two independent power supplies (redundancy). The
power supplies can be replaced individually during operation. If one power
supply unit fails, a warning signal sounds.
If the control input has connection to the Internet, the device can send a warn-
ing e-mail when a signal, power supply or one of the fans fails.

59
In column Chan. / Freq. [MHz], enter the desired output channel/fre-
quency of the individual lines.
—> Double assignments are indicated by a
warning icon .
—> A output signal is normally transmitted
with a bandwidth of 8 MHz. This means
that you can only use the channel centre frequency of the existing
channel grid in the range of channels C21…C69 (frequency grid
8 MHz). The CCIR channel grid is 7 MHz in the range of the lower
frequency bands (channels C5 C12). If 8 MHz QAM signal
packages are transmitted in these channel ranges, this will result in
interference (overlapping) and transmission problems.
For programming in these channel ranges and in the frequency rang-
es below them, we recommend starting with frequency 306 MHz
going back in steps of 8 MHz (see frequency table on page 40).
Please note thereby that many receivers cannot receive the channel
ranges S21…S41 (306 … 466 MHz).
60
Only if the RF output is set to QAM (page 37):
In column SR [kS/s], enter the desired output symbol rate of the individual
lines.
—> The background colour in column Line indicates an output data
overflow.
In this case increase the output symbol rate or the QAM modulation
or remove stations from the data stream using the station filter.
61
For exceptional cases and "older" digital cable receivers, in column
Spectrum the spectral position of the user signal can be inverted (invers).
Factory default is "normal".
