Parameters
Description
the scrambler module supports up to 4 different CAS Simulcrypt.
CAChannel
User can configure different settings for each CAS system by selecting different CAChannel in this item.
CryptoPeriod
the time interval between two ECMs generated by ECMG. Each CAS system has a unique SystemID when it is registered in
SystemID
DVB. Please contact your CAS service provider if you dont know what the ID is.
Shall input the same port no and ID setting as those on the CAS EMMGUDPPort server. Otherwise connection cannot be set up between the CAS EMMSendType server and the scrambler module. EMMPID EMMBandwidth
45
V1.0-N
To ensure the scrambler module can set up connection successfully with the CAS server, user shall configure the correct parameters on the scrambler module
IP Setting button: Click this button to set an IP address for the scrambler module per the network environment. After setting the IP address, the scrambler module must be rebooted.
Bitrate Setting button: Click this button to set the allowed max bitrate for each channel of the scrambler module.
46
V1.0-N
After inputting the correct parameters, the scrambler module shall connect with the CAS server.
Add the AC Data for each program of a TS stream Click Add button on the NMS
47
V1.0-N
In the Add ECM window, input the ACData (Hex), and click Add to insert the AC Data.
After finishing all the parameters setting and the AC Data insertion, click Set button on the NMS to apply for the settings.
48
V1.0-N
After configuring on the scrambler module setting window, user shall operate in the Program Info tab to specify which program to be scrambled and transfer to the transmission module (QAM/IP/ASI) for output. Operation steps are as following:
Select the program which is to be scrambled and transfer it from the signal source to the scrambler module at Output Program Info. (To know how to transfer programs, please refer to chapter 2.3.1.2) In below example picture, program FujianTV1 is selected and is transferred from DVB-S2 module in Input Program Info window to scrambler module in Output Program Info window.
Edit the Network ID, TSID for the selected program, same as the setting in the CAS server for that program. Select the program name and click mouse right button to select Scramble Setting.
49
V1.0-N
In the Scrambler Setting window, select an AC Data we previously input and click OK to bond with the selected program.
50
V1.0-N
After the program is scrambled, the button indicators of the program name will turn to black color.
The scrambling program stream will be automatically transferred to the Scrambler module in the Input Program Info window for transmission. Select the program we just scrambled in the Scrambler module in Input Program Info window, and transfer it to any transmission module. Dont forget to transfer EMM PID together. The output program is already scrambled.

Parameters
1(I)~12(I) 1(O)~12(O) ECM EMM
Description
the input bitrate of channel1~channel12 the output bitrate of channel1~channel12 the bitrate of ECM generated by ECMG the bitrate of EMM generated by EMMG

V1.0-N
The communication status between ECMG and Scrambler. Green means the status is good, while red indicates the communication is interrupted. The communication status between EMMG and Scrambler. Green means the status is good, while red indicates the communication is interrupted. The first number is the accumulated number of EMM, which should keep increasing to send the EMM to scrambler. The second number is the number of ECM, also the number of programs you have scrambled.
Parameters Channel
Description The channel quantity represents the supported max. transcoding channels.
53
V1.0-N
For 2-channel transcoding module, channel1~channel2 are available in this option, while channel1~channel4 are available for 4-channel module.
Each channel transcoding parameters can be set in separated pages when selecting different channel.
The transcoder module type is automatically recognized by the software and not selectable. ->H.264: Means the inserted module is a TC4 module (MPEG-2 Transcoder Type to MPEG-4/H.264); ->MPEG-2: represents the inserted module is a TC2 module (MPEG-4 to MPEG-2) Video Encode Rate Audio Encode Rate Encode Rate (Total) The bitrate is summed up by audio and video bitrate. Define the output channel volume after transcoding. Volume (0~49) Level 0 means mute while level 49 is the Max. volume output. This parameter takes effect only when the Video Encode Mode is set to VBR on TC4 module. Video Rate Rate, it should be input a parameter from 1.75 to 2 times the encode rate. This parameter takes effect only when the Video Encode Mode is set to VBR on TC4 module. Video Rate Rate, it should be input a parameter from 0 to 0.75 times the encode rate. Aspect Conversion

Set the encoded video bitrate, range from 1.0 to 20.0Mpbs Set the encoded audio bitrate, range from 64 to 384Kpbs Total bitrate automatically by the software which is not editable.
Max. Encode Max. Encode Rate: base on the parameter set in Video Encode

Ration Options are available for 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.
V1.0-N
After setting all the parameters, you should press Set button to save the settings.
Program setting
Transcoder module will display in both the Input Program Info window and the Output Program Info window. If you want to transcode a program received from a certain module in the Input Program Info window, you can transfer it to the transcoder module in the Output program Info window. Please refer to Chapter 2.3.1.2 Transfer a Program. After the operation, the transcoded programs will appear under the transcoder moudle in the Input Programs List, and is ready to be transmitted or futher processed by other modules. (PIC-2.2-13)
