2.4 descrIptIon
The HDMT 263 and HDMT 265 modules, in the following called COFDM mod-
ules, are frequency converters and convert two incoming COFDM
-modulated
signals into two outgoing COFDM-modulated signals with free selectable fre-
quency (HDMT 263 –> VHF / HDMT 265 –> UHF, see Technical Data page 4).
The
COFDM
modules are programmed via the
head-end station
control panel.
Each
COFDM
module is equipped with two channel strips ("A", "B") which
are indicated in the control panel display as "Bx…A" and "Bx…B".
F
or each
channel strip, there is an HF input and a loop-through output, as well as one F
connector (HF output) for both channel strips
.
When the head-end station is switched on, the two-line LC display shows the
"SETUP" menu and the software version of the control panel. In this menu the
output level of the head-end station can be set.
To operate these modules the software version of the control panel must be
"V8" or higher. You can find the current operating software on the website
"www.gss.de".
The
COFDM
modules are designed exclusively for use in the STC 160 head-
end station.

3 InstallatIon
– 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 module, switch off the head-end station or
unplugthepowercablefromthemainspowersocket.
– TakemeasurestoprotectagainstESD!
Open the housing of the head-end station in accordance with the assembly
instructions for the STC 160.
3.1 InstallIng the cofdm module
– WheninstallingtheCOFDMmodule,makesurethatitisinsertedinalong
groove in front of a contact strip on the board at the rear wall of the hous-
ing.
The shorter grooves without a contact strip on the board at the rear wall of
the housing are for add-on modules only.

• Insertthe
COFDM
module in grooves A and B of an open slot (with con-
tact strip on the board at the rear wall of the housing) .
• Gentlyslidethe

5 programmIng
The following examples show
how the
HDMT 265
module is programmed. You
can set
HDMT 263
in the same way.
To avoid interferences at an activated channel strip a channel must be pro-
grammed and a corresponding aerial signal must be connected. A terminat-
ing resistor is not sufficient.
– Whenconvertinginputchannelswhoselowerorupperflankingchannelis
alsoinuse,donotusethecorresponding(upperorlower)flankingchannel
of the output channel.
The COFDM 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COFDM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 ranges
belowthem,werecommendstartingwithfrequency306MHzgoingback
in steps of 8 MHz (see frequency table on page 20). Please note thereby that
many receivers cannot receive the channel ranges S21…S41 (306
466 MHz).
When converting the S 7 S 20, including C 5 C 12 (bandwidth
7 MHz) input channels to the C 21 C 69 (bandwidth 8 MHz) output
channels, note that these can only be received from devices that process
stations in the UHF range with a 7 MHz bandwidth.
If you convert VHF channels into VHF channels of other frequencies, you
must set the output signal bandwidth at 7 MHz in the "BANDWIDTH" menu
(see page 16).
When converting the S 21 C 69 channels to S 9 S 16 output chan-
nels, including C 5 C 12, set the bandwidth to 8 MHz for the output
channel in the "BANDWIDTH" menu.
Note that the converted stations can only be received by devices in the VHF
range that process stations with a bandwidth of 8 MHz.

5.2 level settIng
In order to prevent interference within the
head-end station
and the cable sys-
tem, the output level of the
COFDM
module must be lowered by approx. 10 dB
compared to analogue modulators.
