• Monitor CP9000 alarms
• Launch the CP9000 SAG from popup menu in the map.
This is the way user configures CP9000 properties
• Cold spare management: each time a configuration
change is done from the SAG, NMX is notified and
saves the new configuration. When NMX reconnects to
the device, it loads the saved configuration. This
enables a very easy replacement of the unit by a cold
spare.

Compliance
• EBU TECH 3292-s1: BISS-CA BASIC INTEROPERABLE SCRAMBLING SYSTEM - Supplement 1:
CONDITIONAL ACCESS MODE
• EBU Tech 3292 rev. 3 - BISS2 BASIC INTEROPERABLE SCRAMBLING SYSTEM
• EBU BISS-CA Public key upload file format
Main technical capabilities
• BISS-CA scrambing at device level. No mixing BISS-1 (Mode-1/E), BISS-2 (Mode-1/E/CA)
• BISS-CA scrambing at service level in both TS mode (1 MPTS or n SPTS) for a topology with 1 or 2
boards
• in SPTS and MPTS each service associated of each channel could be scrambled in BISS-2 Mode CA
or not individually with a different Session Key
• All components inside a MPEG TS stream are scrambled : Video, Audio, VBI and PCR components.
NB: the SCTE35 is not scrambled.
Note: The number of scrambled components is not limited. The limitation of the scrambling capability
is given by the TS bitrate.
Configuration
• CSV Public Key upload files
• database up to 256 files and file length name = 64 characters
• up to 3072 Public Key per file
• ESID, ECM and EMM PIDs
• CW validity period = 5s to 120s
• Smart EMM bitrate configuration gives to the user the better way to manage the TS bandwith vs the
Total Acquisition time
• Watermark flags
Option
• One option = CP9X00-LIC-SMPTE-BISS-CA-01
Harmonic, Inc. Confidential 26 of 27
ViBE CP9000 Technical specifications
Alarms
• Minor alarm “CSV file bad syntax” when CSV file syntax error on download
• Minor alarm “Scrambling in degraded mode” if the number of Public Key in a CSV file > nb Max of
Public Keys on a CSV file supported
• Major alarm “Scrambling error” on recall a BISS-CA configuration whereas the CSV file to use is not
present on disk
Performances summary
• Up to 8 x HD @60 Mbps (bench worst case)
• SPTS or MPTS
• CSV Public key database up to 256 files with a list of 3072 Public Keys (*)
Limitation
• No scrambling in ULL AVC/HEVC
• SCTE35 component not scrambled
• (*) Currently only the first 56 Public Key of a CSV are used in the entitlement session.
