IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. The DR-100 series digital COFDM receiver is completely compatible with the DVB-T standard included in European Standard ETSI EN300744. 2. There are two different models available: the DR-102 diversity 2 receiver and the DR-106 diversity 6 receiver. Two down-converters can be connected to the DR-102 receiver and up to 6 down-converters can be connected to diversity 6 receiver. - Page 6 Chapter 1 Introduction Contents 1 Description ................. 1 List of figures Figure 1.1 Connection diagram of the DR-100 series equipments ....1 Figure 1.2 A flight case for the rack-mount demodulator ......2 ...

Chapter 1: Introduction 1 Description The DR-100 series COFDM digital receivers receive the signal from the down-converters which are installed outdoors next to the receiver antenna. It demodulates and decodes incoming signal. Afterward the signal sent by the transmitter is obtained at its outputs in video, SDI and ASI formats. -

SDI digital signals, four analogue audio signals and four digital audio signals embedded in the SDI signal. All models of the DR-100 series also have a DVB-ASI transport stream output that can be extremely useful if several decoders are to be chained or to implement an intermediate ASI feed without having to decode it. -
