For the EN-30 device, there are specific commands for the modulator, encoder, and the unit's operating system.
  • Page 41 Note that firmware and profile loading is one click easy through the web user interface. How to Use API Commands The Adtec EN-30 device is unique in that it handles two physical encoders. To accommodate commands for controlling both encoders, you will need to specify which encoder you are working with for each command you issue.
  • Page 42 How Video Rates are Configured (Example is pertinent to MPEG2 (MP2)) Video rates can be configured manually or automatically. The factory default is to automatically set the video rate based on TMR. This option is referred to as VAF (Video Autofill). VAF determines what the TMR is.

How to configure Network EAS Triggering By default, the EN-30 is configured to send an EAS trigger over the local network to all Adtec dual channel encoders (HDMI2QAM, YUV2QAM, EN-20 or EN-30). This feature can be disabled by unchecking the box next to “Network EAS Triggering”, then pressing the apply...
  • Page 44 How passthru audio functions - Dolby E / 5.1 / 2.0, Dolby D, LPCM The Adtec EN-30 encoder supports four pairs of audio encoding or two pairs of passthru per service. An audio passthru consists of a compressed bitstream ( Dolby E 20 Bit / Dolby E 16 Bit / Dolby Digital / Linear Acoustic Stream Stacker 2 ) or an uncompressed stereo pair ( LPCM ) from embedded SDI passed into the egress transport stream ( IP, *RF, ASI ).
  • Page 45 not being presented on the corresponding input. The SDI matrix can be changed to each pair without restarting the encode session. Once hash is heard, then a compressed bitstream should be present. Set the mode back to Passthru for the automatic detection mechanism to configure the Dolby type and bitrate.
  • Page 46 ○ Even if Service 2 is set to OFF, Service 1 can still only allocate 50% of the Audio resources Encoding: The EN-30 has the following Audio Encoding capabilities and resources. Different CODECs require a different amount of resources. The EN-30 has logic built-in so that the user cannot exceed the audio resources. CODEC MODE...
  • Page 47 The important thing is to be aware of different configurations and how resource intensive they are. If an EN-30 is not accepting the settings being submitted, then check the other pairs of audio and ensure the threshold is not being exceeded.
  • Page 48 How to use ASI Remux Terminology: “ASI Remux” refers to the ability for an Adtec EN to accept a Transport Stream (TS) via ASI input, and multiplex the incoming service or services with it’s locally encoded service. The result is that the transport stream output becomes a MPTS containing the services from the ASI input in addition to the locally encoded service.
  • Page 49 PMT - Program Map Table. This MPEG-2 table specifies PID values for components of programs. The Adtec EN-3X and EN-100 encoders have an ASI input available for the ASI remux feature. Further information can be read about ASI Remux in the ASI Remux article. In some cases, users may want to add custom PID’s from third party generators, such as a DVB Subtitles, into...
  • Page 50 As EN encoders do not perform PID conflict resolution at this time, the PID’s inserted into the system should not conflict with other PID’s utilized by the EN-30. To configure ASI Passthrough of DVB subtitles, visit the Manual PIDs tab. This tab contains PMT template entries that will be used to insert into the PMT.
  • Page 51 The user will then need to map the entry into the associated PMT by visiting the Manual PID Mapping tab. The Italian DVB Subtitle PID was entered into the first manual PID configuration. This can be mapped by moving the associated PID from the ‘Unmapped PIDs’ box into the ‘Mapped PIDs’...
