Verify Tuners Lock
1. Click the Blades tab (See Figure 9.).
2. Click the down-arrow under Details for the satellite blade.
3. Verify that one tuner in each set (tuner set 1-4 and tuner set 5-8) is locked. Examples of locked tuner pairs:
1 and 5, 4 and 5, 2 and 7.
If not locked, return to the Chassis tab and verify that the satellites have been enabled and click Apply again
and wait for the scan to complete. Return to the Blades tab and verify.
NOTES:
• Transcoder - When the Details on the Blades tab are expanded, you can see whether a transcoder is present
on the blade or not. A gray X indicates Not Present; a green check-mark indicates Present.
• Descrambling Status is located below the Tuner Information.
– “Granted” indicates the ProCam is authorized for service.
– “Denied” indicates the ProCam is not authorized.
– “Free” means the service does not require authorization and is free to all receivers.
– “SC Blackout” means service is blacked out due to programming agreements.
• Reset Blade button allows you to reboot the specific blade as opposed to rebooting the entire system (Admin
tab—> Reboot System button). If you attempt to reboot the master blade, an alert warning occurs indicating
that the system will lose connection until another blade becomes master or the blade comes back up.
• Disable Blade button removes the blade from available resources to assign services to. The blade is still
powered and visible in the interface, but no services will be assigned to it.
