1 Safety regulations

Important

• Assembly, installation and servicing must be carried out by an authorised

electrician.

• Switch off the operating voltage before starting assembly or service work or

pull out the mains plug.

• Install the system …

- in a dust-free, dry environment,

so that it is protected from moisture, vapours, splashing water and dampness,

- somewhere protected from direct sunlight,

- away from the immediate vicinity of heat sources,

- at an ambient temperature of < 50 °C.

• Make sure the device is adequately ventilated.

Do not cover the ventilation slots!

• Avoid short circuits!

• No liability is accepted for damage caused by a faulty connection or inexpert

handling.

• Observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines on the installation

and operation of antenna systems.

• Earth the SAT receiver using the equipotential bonding rail in accordance with

DIN EN 50083 and VDE 0855.

• Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.

Take measures 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.

2.3 Description

These twin-SAT cassettes enables the conversion of two TV satellite signals

of the same polarisation (horizontal or vertical) from the 1st SAT IF level

(950-2150 MHz) to the TV ranges band I to band V.

Each Cassette contains 2 channel strips with identical circuits. These are indicat-

ed in the display by Bx A or Bx B. The SAT signal transmitted via the SAT input

passes the SAT tuner, the video and stereo audio signal processing units and is

sent on to the combiner via a CCIR modulator. The combiner links the channel

strip A signal to the signal at channel strip B and transmits the signal via the HF

output socket of the HF bus bar. The signal can be set using the corresponding

level regulator (max. –20 dB). All other settings are made using the keypad of

the control unit of the head end.

After switching on the head end, the software version of the control unit is

displayed briefly in the two-line LC display. Approx. five minutes after the last

button has been pressed, the display switches off automatically or the software

version of the control unit is displayed.

- 6 -

2.4 Display of the software version

• Keep any two keys on the control unit of the head end pressed simultane-

ously until the display goes dark and the software version, e.g. “V.30”, is

displayed.

Important:

The head end requires a control unit with the V.27 software version or higher to

control these cassettes. For lower software versions, the software of the control

unit must be updated.

2.5 Scope of application

The cassettes are designed for use in the following head ends:

– CSE 3312

– CSE 3319

3 Assembly

3.1 Installing the Cassette

Warning

• Pull the mains plug out of the head end of the mains socket before insert-

ing or replacing cassettes.

• Unscrew the screws 1 from the bracket in the head end.

• Insert the Cassette into a free slot and push it into the housing.

• Align the Cassette and gently make it contact with the connections of the

circuit board and the HF bus bar.

• Fasten the Cassette with the 1 screws.

5 Programming

The following examples show how to program the Cassette CCS 1233.

5.1 Preparation

• Connect the test receiver to the HF output of the head end.

• Set the output channel of the Cassette (see page 13) and adjust the test re-

ceiver to this channel.

• Switch on the modulator if necessary.

• Balance the output levels of the channel strips “A” and “B” if the difference in

level is ≥ 1 dB (see page 12).

• Measure the output level of the analogue cassettes and, if necessary, tune

them to a uniform output level.

5.3 Programming the Cassette

• Switch on the head end.

—> The processor reads the cassettes‘ data (approx. 10 seconds).

—> The display shows the software version (e.g. V.30).

—> The display shows e.g. the menu “Bx 1A TWIN-SAT”.

“Bx” stands for Cassette (box),

“1” for Cassette 1,

“A” for channel strip A.

• Select the Cassette to be programmed (box no.) by repeat-

edly pressing the button

• Press the button.

—> The “LEVEL HF OUT:” menu appears on the display.

5.3.1 Setting the output level (channel strips)

• Select the channel strips “A” or “B” and by pressing

adjust the higher output level of one channel strip to the

lower output level of the other channel strip by increments

of “0” to “–7” dB.

• To save the channel strip settings:

press the

button.

Repeat the adjustment for other cassettes and channel

strips, if required.

• Press the button.
