CONNECTIΟΝ & OPERATION

1. Connect up to 4 HDMI Cables from up to 4 HD source devices to the respective HD Modulator HD inputs (HD IN 1, 2, 3, 4).

2. Connect an RF cable from RF OUT to the RF Network.

3. Connect the power supply to the HD Modulator.

4. Select configuration signals from the MENU TV STANDARD (STAN) between DVB-T, DVB-C or ISDB-T

5. Select the desired RF Channel outputs from modulator displays 1 and 3.

6. If there is more than one Quad-HD Modulator unit in the same installation, select the ID for each output channel.
   The ID selection is made for each quad modulator unit in its own 4 displays, separately in each display.

7. Proceed with channel scanning on your TV/STB

HD MODULATOR 3in1 QUAD FRONT PANEL

MAIN MENU

Press Menu/OK to enter the MENU. Navigate through the MENU by using the buttons “Left” / “Right” in each modulator display separately (MOD1, MOD2, MOD3, MOD4)
MOD1 & MOD2 in pair, produce one COFDM DVB-T, ISDB-T, or QAM DVB-C MUX which includes 2 TV channels. e.g. TV-1 & TV-2
MOD3 & MOD4 in pair, produce another COFDM DVB-T, ISDB-T or QAM DVB-C MUX \which includes 2 TV channels. e.g. TV-3 & TV-4
IMPORTANT:

1. The Menu selections for CHANNEL, FREQUENCY, QAM, RF LEVEL, FACTORY DEFAULTS, and TV STANDARD are made only from Modulator Display MOD1 & MOD3 and automatically adjust their pair units Modulator Display MOD2 & MOD4, respectively.

2. Each HD source input is addressed to its HD Modulator.
   HD IN 1 = mod 1 (configuration Display)
   HD IN 2 = mod 2 (configuration Display)
   HD IN 3 = mod 3 (configuration Display)
   HD IN 4 = mod 4 (configuration Display)

3. Each HD Modulator has its own USB port, for CFG (Config File) function.
   USB 1 = mod 1 (configuration Display)
   USB 2 = mod 2 (configuration Display)
   USB 3 = mod 3 (configuration Display)
   USB 4 = mod 4 (configuration Display)

| CH: Shows the selected RF output channel in the DVB-T or ISDB-T terrestrial sig nal modulation selection. Use the “Up”, and “Down” keys to change the selection
---|---
| FR: Shows the selected RF output frequency on the DVB-C modulation cable signal. With the «Up», and «Down» keys you change the selection.
| QAM: This shows the QAM in the DVB-C modulation. Use the “Up”, and “Down” keys to change the 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM, 128QAM, or 256QAM selection.
| ID: This shows the current ID. Use the keys Up & Down to set the desired ID.
| RF: This shows the RF output level. Use the keys Up & Down to adjust to the desired RF level.
| LCN: This shows the current LCN type. Use the keys Up & Down to set the desired LCN type.
| FACT: Factory defaults. Press key UP to restore factory defaults.
| CFG: Configuration file extraction. Press the key UP to extract the current configuration to the USB storage device.
| SOFT: This shows the SW version. Use the key Up & Down to display the current SW version.
| STAN: Shows the TV STANDARD modulation signals. Use the “Up”, and “Down” keys to change the DVB-T, DVB-C, or ISDB-T selection.

To save the selected configuration press once the MENU/OK key and confirm with YES or NO by pressing the LEFT and RIGHT keys and press the MENU/OK key once again. The configuration is being saved, please DO NOT power off the unit! This procedure must be made separately, in each one of the 4 MODULATOR displays (MOD1, MOD2, MOD3, MOD4).

CONFIGURATION EXTRACTION (CFG)

For an advanced configuration of the HD modulator QUAD, you must extract the configuration file one by one for each MODULATOR (MOD1, MOD2, MOD3, MOD4) separately, to a USB drive, modify it and import it again into the respective HD modulator. To extract the configuration file named jedi_config.txt*, you must connect a USB drive** to the USB slot, enter the Main Menu, select CFG, and press the key UP to extract the file to the USB drive. When the message SUCC appears, the process has been successfully completed.

*IMPORTANT: The configuration file jedi_config.txt should not be renamed!
**IMPORTANT: Use only FAT32 partitions! In any other case, the message FAIL will indicate that the process has not been completed.
