PCS150R Product Description

The PCS150R Pro:Centric™ server is a stand-alone, remotely-controlled
processor and controller for the Pro:Centric system. This device can be used
to capture data from an Internet source, assemble the data as display pages,
and output the pages in DTV format over an ASI or RF interface. With appro-
priate post-processing, the ASI or RF signal can then be used for either IP or
RF distribution in a lodging site application.
Features
• Two output options: ASI or RF
• RF output channel programmable
• Remote programming capability via Ethernet
• Unit does not require local monitor, keyboard, or mouse connection
• Small, lightweight chassis
• 19-inch rack-mountable
• 1U height profi le to minimize rack space usage
Note: Design and specifi cations subject to change without prior notice.

Typical System Installation
(see also Typical Setup Flow Charts and VPN Network Connections Overview diagrams)
1. If your system is using ASI output, make the following two connections; otherwise, go
to step 2.
• Connect a 75 ohm BNC-to-BNC coaxial cable between ASI OUT on the PCS150R
and ASI IN on the modulator.
Note: The BNC cable must be less than 30 feet (9.2 meters) in length.
•
Connect an RF coaxial cable between IF OUT on the modulator and IF IN on the
upconverter.
2. Connect one end of a CAT5 RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the ETHERNET-0 port on the
PCS150R rear panel, and connect the other end of the cable to the institution's
network.
3. Connect the PCS150R power supply to the POWER connector on the PCS150R rear
panel.
4. Use the straight-through serial cable and, if necessary, the USB adapter to connect
a PC to the RS-232 port on the PCS150R rear panel. (This step will enable you to
verify the network connection once power is applied in step 6.)
5. Using HyperTerminal or an equivalent terminal emulation program on the PC, confi g-
ure the serial port as follows: Bits per second = 115200; Data bits = 8; Parity = None;
Stop bits = 1; Flow Control = None
