1 safety regulations and notes

• Assembly, installation and servicing should be carried out by authorised

electricians.

• Switch off the operating voltage of the system before beginning with assem-

bly or service work or pull out the mains plug.

• Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.

• Install the system so it will not be able to vibrate…

- in a dust-free, dry environment

- in such a manner that it is protected from moisture, fumes, splashing wa-

ter and dampness

- somewhere protected from direct sunlight

- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources

- in an ambient temperature of 0 °C to +50 °C. 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 slots.

• Beware of short circuits

• No liability is accepted for any damage caused by faulty connections or

inappropriate handling.

• Observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines on the installa-

tion and operation of antenna systems.

• The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 must be

observed.

• For further information please read the assembly instructions for the head-

end station used.

• Test the software versions of the head-end station and the cassette and

update them if necessary. The current software versions 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.

gener al

As signal source the corresponding Tuner can be selected. Using an adequate

CA module a scrambled channel can be descrambled.

A LED provide an indication of the input signal quality based on their colour

(see figure on page10).

LED

indicator

Indication

Green Signal quality is good

Orange Signal quality is poor

Red No signal

The PAL output signals is sent through the RF output of the cassette to the output

collector. The output level can be set at the output collector.

When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display shows the

software version of the control unit. To operate this cassette the software ver-

sion of the control unit must be "V 45" or higher. You can find the current op-

erating software for the control unit and the cassette, the software "BE-Flash"

and the current assembly instructions on the website "www.mygss.eu".

The cassette is intended for use in the

STANDARD LINE

head-end stations.

2.5 software query

Control unit

If necessary, you can activate the indication of the software version of the

control unit manually:

• Press any two keys on the control unit of the head-end station simultaneously

until the display goes dark and the software version, e.g. "V 45" appears.

Cassette

The software version of the cassette is shown in the display after activating the

cassette (see page 17).

3 assembly

3.1 installing the Cassette

– Ensure the head-end station is mounted so it will not be able to vibrate.

Avoid, for example, mounting the head-end station onto a lift shaft or any

other wall or floor construction that vibrates in a similar way.

– Before installing or changing a cassette unplug the power cable from the

mains power socket.

• Remove the fastening screws 1 of an unoccupied slot from the bracket of

the head-end station.

• Insert the cassette in this slot and push it into the housing.

• Align the cassette and apply slight pressure to connect it to the connections

of the board and the RF bus bar.

• Fasten the cassette with the screws 1.

- 9 - HDM 400 P CI

3.2 emC regul ations

To comply with the current EMC regulations, it is necessary to connect the lines

leading in and out of the head-end station using cable terminals.

When mounting the cassette in a head-end station which is installed in a 19"

cabinet, make sure the connections leading in and out for the 19" cabinet are

made using cable terminals.

CLASS

KLASSE

The attenuation of shielding of the connection lines for ASI and antenna must

meet the requirements for "Class A".

• Insert the required number of cable terminals in the openings provided in

the head-end station or in the 19

cabinet.

Tighten the nuts on the cable terminals until the teeth on the lock washer have

penetrated the exterior coating and a good connection is made between the hous-

ing and cable terminals.

5 RF input

The operating software of the cassette can be updated via the

9-pin D-SUB socket "RS 232" using a PC or notebook and the

software "BE-Flash". You can find the current operating software

on the website

"www.mygss.eu".

3.4 ConneCting the Cassette

•

Connect the

RF input

5 to a corresponding signal source.

•

Connect the head-end station to the mains power supply.

- 11 - HDM 400 P CI

3.5 retrofitting a Ca module

The cassette is equipped with a common interface. It allows you to connect a

CA module for various scrambling systems and service providers. Scrambled

channels can only be descrambled with a CA module suitable for the scram-

bling system and the corresponding smart card. The smart card contains all

the information for authorisation, descrambling and subscription.

Caution

– Any changes made by programme providers to the structures in the pro-

gramme data might impair or even prevent this function.

– When working with the CA module, please read the corresponding operat-

ing manual from the respective provider.

• Insert the smart card into the CA module so that the chip 3 on the smart

card 1 faces the thicker side (top) of the CA module 2.

• Insert the CA module into the slot 4 with the top side of the CA module

facing the RS-232 socket of the cassette.

• Push the CA module without canting into the guide rails of the CA slot 4

and contact it to the common interface.

5 Programming

5.1 PreParation

• Test the software versions of the head-end station and the cassette and up-

date them if necessary.

The current software versions can be found on the website

www.mygss.eu

5.2

notes on level set ting

In order to prevent interference within the head-end station and the cable sys-

tem, the output level digital cassettes must be decreased by 10dB compared

to this analogous cassette at 64 QAM, and by 4 dB compared to this analo-

gous cassette at 256 QAM.

• Measure the output levels of the other cassettes and tune them to a uniform

output level using the appropriate level controls or software dependent on

the head-end station used. Please regard the assembly instructions of the

respective head-end station.
