Options, Licensing and Upgrades
Note: It is the responsibility of the operator to set up the two modulators so that
the signals produced by them do not interfere with each other (that is, they
do not overlap in any way in the frequency band).
7.9.3 Modulation
The satellite modulator is capable of the following modulations:
• QPSK modulation in accordance with EN 300 421 (DVB-S).
• 8PSK and 16QAM modulation in accordance with EN 301 210 (DVB-DSNG).
• QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK and 32APSK in accordance with EN 302 307 (DVB-S2).
• QPSK, 8PSK, 8APSK-L, 16APSK, 16APSK-L, 32APSK, 32APSK-L, 64APSK
and 64APSK-L in accordance with EN 302 307 -2 (DVB-S2 Extensions).
7.9.4 Encryption
The Transport Stream can be encrypted using RAS algorithm. Individual services in
a Transport Stream can be BISS encrypted.
7.10 Software and Firmware Upgrades
A single Upgrade Wizard is available for the unit and all option cards that can be
fitted for upgrading the unit software and firmware through the Ethernet control port.
To install software upgrade, navigate to the folder where the Upgrade Wizard is
saved, and run the executable file.
Notes: Follow instructions provided with the software upgrade wizard to reduce the
risk of upgrade failure.
The upgrade process needs approximately 50 minutes to finish. The unit
automatically reboots during the process.
Following an upgrade, the unit configuration is lost and any stored
configurations may no longer be compatible with the new software. A
configuration converter tool is available to convert existing configurations so
that they can be re-used. Refer to instructions provided with the converter
tool for more information.
To recover the unit from a failed upgrade, refer to the instructions provided
with the Upgrade Wizard.
