CAS vs. Chameleon interface structure
When setting up a Chameleon for scrambling, there are 2 main interconnections between the
Chameleon and the CAS to be established:
■ The connection for receiving EMMs from the CAS
■ The connection for transmitting CW/AC to the CAS, and receiving the ECMs
Apart from this, there are some parameters/identifiers that have to be set internally in the Chameleon.
EMM communication req’s
■ Chameleon IP address for the IP interface used for
Simulcrypt, and port for receiving the EMMs (EMM
port) has to be given to the CAS.
■ The Client ID has to be provided by the CAS, and
entered in the Chameleon UI when setting up the
connection.
The internal identifier that has to be set in the
Chameleon UI is the EMMg name. The EMM PID will be
automatically assigned by the Chameleon, and can be
changed in Service Management.
ECM communication req’s
■ The CAS IP address to be entered in the Chameleon
UI.
■ The SuperCAS ID, specified by the CAS, has to be
entered in the Chameleon UI.
■ The ECM port, the port that Chameleon should
connect to for the ECMs, must be supplied.
■ The Access Criteria has to be given by the CAS.
The internal identifiers that has to be set in the
Chameleon UI is the ECMg name.
