Configuring the Transport Stream Information
• Front Panel (multi-stream unit): From the Main Menu of the D9800 front panel, choose Setup > Outputs > TS
Out > ASI or IP, and choose the input you want to configure general settings from the ASI or IP front panel menu.
Step 2
From the Output Mode drop-down list or front panel menu, choose the DPM output mode for the current output. With
the exception of No Output, choosing a mode will configure the DPM settings to achieve the specified behavior. In this
way, they act as DPM presets. We highly recommend that you use either one of the basic modes (Passthrough or Service
Channels Only), or, for advanced setup, enter the DPM mapping before setting the output mode.
Each PE in the Single Program Transport Stream (SPTS) creates its own transport stream, which includes PAT, CAT,
SDT, and PMT tables for one service channel only, as well as ES PIDs for the PE.
Option
No Output
Passthrough
Service Channels Only
MAP Passthrough
MAP Service Channels Only
Transcoding (multi-stream
units only)
Description
No ASI, MPEGoIP, or IP output will be generated and the ASI or DATA ports will be
disabled.
All PEs will be set to Pass and other DPM settings will also be set.
This is similar to Passthrough, except that only channels applied to program entries are
available on the output.
The output will be identical to the input, except that channels assigned to PEs and PIDs
will be mapped using the DPM settings. If the input is tuned to a valid channel, the PEs
are automatically set to Map. Otherwise, the PEs are automatically set to Drop.
When choosing MAP Passthrough, a message appears to confirm that you want to
resynchronize the output changes and PIDs to match the selected input programs. Click
or choose Yes to set the DPM mapping to the last valid (or saved) configuration. Click
or choose No to use the existing DPM maps.
If the PE is mapped, it uses the last saved output MAP configuration. The output
Note
map (for example, output channel PMT) does not change automatically if the
input or channel number is changed.
This is similar to MAP Passthrough, except that only channels applied to program entries
are available on the output. If the input is tuned to a valid channel, the PEs are
automatically set to Map. Otherwise, the PEs are automatically set to Drop.
When choosing MAP Service Channels Only, a message appears to confirm that you
want to resynchronize the output changes and PIDs to match the selected input programs.
Click or choose Yes to set the DPM mapping to the last valid (or saved) configuration.
Click or choose No to use the existing DPM maps.
If the PE is mapped, it uses the last valid input. The output map (for example,
Note
output channel PMT) does not change automatically if the input or channel
number is changed.
The output will be generated using the DPM MAP settings, except that the DPM Action
will be set to XCode and the Descrambled mode will be set to Descrambled. If the input
is tuned to a valid channel, the PEs are automatically set to XCode. Otherwise, the PEs
are automatically set to Drop.
Note If the PE is transcoded, it uses the last valid input. The output map (for example,
output channel PMT) does not change automatically if the input or channel
number is changed.
