Setting up the network input

To set up the data
stream
The S has 2 line inputs which can be either E1, E3 or DS3.
TELLAR
Do as follows to set up the network input:
1. From the Codec Explorer right-click on the icon representing the incoming
data stream and select Properties.
2. Click Line Input to be Automatic unless you always want the line input from
a specific line.
The S automatically selects the active line input signal. The auto-switch-
TELLAR
ing criteria for the line are input loss, transport stream loss, frame loss and AIS.
If an autoswitching has occurred the S
long as there is a valid signal.
ROSA automatically displays:
• the input selected by the S
• the measured bit error rate in the BER field (BER is only measured if framing
and/or RS is on),
• whether or not a Reed Solomon error correction algorithm has been applied to
the input signal in the Format field. "188RSOFF" means that the Reed
Solomon algorithm is not applied. "204RSON" means that the Reed Solomon
algorithm is applied.
3. Click the relevant frame if you use framing of the TS packets in your net-
work.
The framing must be the same in the encoder and decoder.
4. Click equalizer if you want to compensate for network cable losses.
As a rule you use cable equalization if the cable loss exceeds 6 dB measured at
half frequency.
Note! The equalizer is only applicable for E3 and DS3 networks.
will keep the new line input as
