Quick-start:
This might vary because of different steps in development before this document
was finished.
LCD OPERATING INSTRUCTIONs:
For setting configurations you can use the LCD control panel. The device will
initialize to the main interface after power on, and press “Enter” into the
main menu. The LCD turns off automatically after some seconds.
Some settings:
| Source | Press ◄ ► key to select HOMI/CVBS |
|---|---|
| Standard | Press ◄ ► key to select DTV standard DVB-C/DVB-T |
| Freq(Frequency) | Press ◄ ► key to move cursor and press ▼▲ to change numbers |
| Bandwidth | Press ◄ ► key to select 6,7,8 MHz, apply to DVB-T ONLY |
| Sym. Rate | Symbol Rate, set from 5.000 to 9.000 Msps, apply to DVB-C ONLY |
| MOD | Set mode range 64QAM, 128QAM, 256QAM, apply to DVB-C ONLY |
| LCD | Press ◄ ► key to edit |
| Service Name | Shown service ID,Enter and set up to 15 alphanumeric characters |
| Audio Format | Press ◄ ► key to select MPEG-1 Layer2/AAC |
| Network | Enter to set the IP Address/Subnet Mask/ Default Gateway |
| Advanced | Enter to set more TS setting |
| Theme | Change the LCD background theme |
Remark: CVBS source for devices with CVBS Input only.
Reset: Press ESC key 3 seconds to Restore factory settings.
The Menu with the LCD/Keypad is nearly self-explaining…
Audio encoding can be AAC or MPEG1L2 Stereo. If you change that, you’re
receiving Decoder (TV or STB) need to be re-tuned to recognize the changes.
Please set the PIDs and IDs accordingly to not conflict or harmonize with your
existing COAX DVB-Channels.
Some recommendations:
DVB-C QAM settings:
256 is a good choice because of best data rates.
Symbolrate SR should be 6750-6900 max.
Frequency should be in the range of
the CELENEC Channel plan. See end of this document…
IN DVB-T mode:
FFT= 2000 or 8000 carrier, so best quality with 8K…, you can play with code-
rates and so on if you have distortions detected in the receiver unit.
Guard Interval can be lowest 1/32 in Coax networks (not for over the air
recommended).
Bandwidth 6, 7, or 8MHz…
Please note, that many TV sets/Receiver can only tune up to 862 MHz.
Higher bitrates assure higher picture
qualities…
Half FPS can be used to change the FPS from source to re-encode… FHD output
can be chosen to interlace mode or Automatic according to the input.
An appropriate LCN can be set like to 1 if your channel should be the first to tune in TV sets supporting that. You should check whether you’re other DVB- Network channels crossing that in their NIT (Network Information Table).
