A unique tuner can be identified by chassis number, slot number, tuner number, and IP
Address.
 Chassis - This value shows the Chassis number of the COM360 that holds the COM46 card
you are currently tuning.
 Slot - This value shows the Slot number within the COM360 chassis that holds the COM46
card you are currently tuning.
 Tuner - This value indicates which tuner on the COM46 card you are controlling.
 IP - This field shows the IP address of the COM46 card you are currently interacting with.
A detailed description of each advanced tuning field on the Advanced Edit page follows:
 Dest_IP_Address - In this field, you will enter the IP address of the device you wish to stream
video content to (e.g. an edge QAM). The COM46 will stream to any valid unicast or
multicast address.
 Dest_Port_Number - This field represents the port of the IP address you wish to stream video
to. Depending upon the destination, this value may not be freely chosen. The default value is
0.
 Protocol_Type - This field is used to control whether the COM46 streams the data in UDP or
RTP packet structures. The default value is UDP.
 Channel_Object_ID - This field is the data that the COM46 actually uses for tuning
purposes. It will be automatically filled in when a valid DIRECTV channel number is entered
into the "Major_Number" field. Before the card has been successfully tuned, the default value
is 0.
 Major_Number - This field is equivalent to the DIRECTV channel number you tune to on a
typical DIRECTV tuner. The default value is 0.
 Minor_Number - This field is automatically filled in by the COM46 card, with a default
value of 65535. If the DIRECTV channel has a minor channel number then the
Minor_Number value must be entered. Many DIRECTV channels have both high-definition
and standard-definition channels with the same Major and Minor numbers. The COM46 will
prefer the high-definition channels in this case. To prefer the standard-definition channels
instead, add 100000 to the Minor_Number. In most cases, this would cause the
Minor_Number to be 165535 if the standard-definition channel is desired. A COM46-FLX
which has not been upgraded to HD will only allow tuning to standard-definition channels.
