Data Interfaces M6100 Broadcast Satellite Modulator
When a passive splitter is used and this compensation is not enabled, the incoming signal might be
degraded too much so that a correct modulation cannot be guaranteed.
11.4.2 Input Framing
Configure the input framing type.
M6100> ASI Input > Input Framing
The incoming packets can be:
• TS188 (transport stream with 188-byte packets);
• TS204 (transport stream with 204-byte packets, 188 bytes with 16 bytes for error correction).
The 16 bytes for error correction (overhead) are removed before the actual
modulation takes place.
When the incoming packets are not corresponding to the configured framing type, the following
alarm is generated: ASI IN No Input Signal ASI1.
11.5 ASI Output
The ASI output can be used to perform monitoring on incoming signals.
The ASI output are loop through on BNC (F) - 75 ohms (coax).
The ASI output can be used to bring out one of the following input selections:
M6100>ASI Output >> Signal Selection
• Modulator Input, this is the signal output from the TS MUX block.
This way the signal can be monitored when extra processing (such as rate adaptation) has been
performed.
• Active ASI input;
• Inactive ASI input;
• PRBS generated signal, we also refer to section: PRBSGeneratoronpage174.
The output selection defines where the signal will be available.
