Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG 1 should only be used for debugging purposes of course! • 48Bit CW: If 0, the scrambler will use 64 Bit codewords to scramble the content. If 1 (nonzero), the scrambler will use 48Bit codewords. Some CAS only support the 48Bit mode.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG 3.8 ECMG Status Page The ECMG Status Page consists of two parts. The upper part lets you verify the connection and communication between ECMG and the scrambler. Use the scrollbar of your browser to reach the bottom part of the ECMG Status. The bottom part informs you about the DVB SimulCrypt parameters that the scrambler and ECMG agreed on using.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG The example shows a configuration, that lets the scrambler listen on port TCP port 5001 for EMMG requests, like EMM provisions. It will also accept EMM provisions on UDP port 2003.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG 3.11 EIS Settings Page The EIS is an (external) software component that defines Scrambling Control Groups. It connects to the scrambler using TCP/IP. The scrambler will listen on the specific port for message of the EIS.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG It is possible to verify the Scrambling Control Groups that were defined by an EIS, by clicking on “Scrambling” in the menu bar. 3.12 Detailed EIS Status Page The EIS status page lets you check the communication between the EIS and the scrambler.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG The content of the CA descriptors of the CAT will change immediately (within 500ms). The contents of the CA descriptors in a PMT will only change when the corresponding services switches from clear to scrambled. If you use Save&Reboot after the whole setup, you can be sure, that your private data will be used.

Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG 3.17 Scrambling Control Group List A Scrambling Control Group (SCG) is a bundle of services to be scrambled at the same time using the same codeword and the same access criteria for specific ECMG.
Page 23
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG The Scrambling Control Group (SCG) lists consists of 6 columns. • SCG-ID: This is the ID of the Scrambling Control Group. Its an unique number identifying the SCG. You may manually define this value on the “Edit (new) SCG Page”.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG • Clr: This is an abbreviation for “clear”. If you click on this link, the scrambler will schedule a deprovision of all services scrambled by this SCG. This means, that all services will as soon as possible become free-to-air (clear / not scrambled).

Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG The parameters in the upper part are: • Name: This is a string of characters. It is just used as a mnemonic to identify the Scrambling Control Group for the administrator.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG possible to have the video component of a service in an SCG with ID “0x0001” while the audio components of the same service are part of an SCG with ID “0x0002” (another SCG).
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG Of course, you may also mix an access criteria and scrambling state change. 3.21 Deprovision of an existing Scrambling Control Group Deprovision means, that all services of a Scrambling Control Group will become free-to-air services.
Operation Manual 12./07 WISI Communications GmbH & Co. KG Note: Do not turn off power, while the LED´s indicate RED. If you turn off power during the flash process,your current settings will be lost and the scrambler will use default settings after the reboot.
