Com46-Flx Card - Technicolor COM2000 Integrator's Manual

4.3 COM46-FLX Card

The COM46-FLX card, shown in Figure 5 below, is a variant of the standard COM46 card that is only
capable of receiving standard definition programming as shipped from the factory. It can be upgraded
to receive HD programming through installation of an upgrade license key provided by Technicolor
or DIRECTV.
Upgrade of FLEX cards to COM46 cards require DIRECTV approval.
Almost all of the information regarding identification and configuration of the COM46 cards applies
to the COM46-FLX. The only exception is the upgrade of a COM46-FLX from SD to HD. The
COM46-FLX tuners are configured exactly the same way as the COM46 tuners although if an HD
channel is selected the card will return a channel number of 0 in the Discovery page.
