1.0 Description The New Standard in Digital Modulator Performance Radyne ComStream’s DM240 family of High-Speed Modulators is the ideal choice to meet the exacting standards of High Data-Rate Video, Internet and Fiber Restoral Satellite Applications. The DM240 meets the various international standards and supports BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK and 16QAM applications with symbol rates up to 68 Msps.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator Installation Installation This section provides unpacking and installation instructions, and a description of external connections and backward alarm information. 2.0 Installation Requirements The DM240 can be installed within any standard 19-inch equipment cabinet or rack, and requires 1 RU mounting space (1.75 inches) vertically and 17 inches of depth.
Installation DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator 2.1 Unpacking The DM240 Modulator was carefully packaged to avoid damage and should arrive complete with the following items for proper installation: DM240 Unit. PCMCIA Card. May be installed, depending upon configuration. If no card is installed, the unit has been factory configured.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator Installation 2.4.1 Initial Power-Up Before initial power up of the DM240, it is a good idea to disconnect the transmit output from the operating ground station equipment. This is especially true if the current modulator configuration settings are unknown, where incorrect setting could disrupt existing communications traffic.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator Theory of Operation Theory of Operation 3.0 Theory of Operation The advanced hardware/software architecture of the DM240 allows a single piece of hardware to be configured for a variety of different applications. Several of these hardware/software platforms are listed in the next sections.
Theory of Operation DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator 3.2 DVB-S2-BS-NBC Operation The DVB-S2-BS-NBC version of the DM240 complies with the ETSI EN 302 307 V1.1.1 (2004- 01) specification for non-backward compatible broadcast services. A block diagram of the signal flow is shown in Figure 3-2 below.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces User Interfaces 4.0 User Interfaces There are four user interfaces available for the DM240 family of products. These are: Front Panel Remote Port Ethernet Port Terminal 4.1 Front Panel User Interface The front panel of the DM240 allows for complete control and monitor of all DM240 parameters and functions via a keypad, LCD display and status LEDs.
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator 4.1.1 Front Panel LCD Display The front panel display is a 2 line by 16-character LCD display. The display is lighted and the brightness can be set to increase when the front panel is currently in use. The LCD display automatically dims after a period of inactivity.
<CLEAR> to begin again. Figure 4-3. Entering New Parameters 4.2 Front Panel Control Screen Menus The complete set of DM240-DVB Front Panel Control Screens is made up of Main Menus. Each Main Menus has several Option and Parameter Screens. 4.2.1 Main Menus...
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator RFSWITCH {PRIME, BACKUP} {OFFLINE, ONLINE} This menu is available only when RF Switch support hardware is installed. The first status line indicates the side of the RF switch that the DM240 is attached (prime or backup).
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces PILOT SYMBOLS: {DISABLED, ENABLED} Physical layer pilot symbols. Displayed only in DVB-S2 related network spec. GOLD SEQ N: {0 - 262142} Gold code sequence index. LAST RATE CTRL: {SYMBOL RATE DATA RATE AUTO} Indicates the rate (symbol or data) which is maintained when associated parameters (i.e.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces The Transmit Clock (SCT) supplied by the DM240 is always Output. Normally, this clock is used to clock the data out of the data source and then return it to the SCTE input. The DM240 is then set to SCTE mode eliminating any possible clock skew.
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator OUTCLK SRC {SCTE, SCT} When used with G.703, the user may choose between an internal (SCT), external (SCTE), or no output clock sources. All else provides status only. OUTCLK POL {NORMAL, INVERTED} Output Clock Polarity – Allows the user to use the output clock signal as is or to invert it.

DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces 4.9 Remote Port User Interface The Remote Port of the DM240 allows for complete control and monitor functions via an RS-485 Serial Interface. Control and status messages are conveyed between the DM240 and the subsidiary modems, and the host computer using packetized message blocks in accordance with a proprietary communications specification.
Page 37
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator <SYN> - the message format header character, or ASCII sync character, that defines the beginning of a message. The <SYN> character value is always 16h. <BYTE COUNT> - the Byte Count is the number of bytes in the <DATA> field, ranging from 0 through TBD.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces Thus, the checksum is 00000101b; which is 05h or 5 decimal. Alternative methods of calculating the checksum for the same message frame are: 00h + 02h + F0h + 2Ah + 09h + 00h + 03h + DFh + FEh = 305h.
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator 4.9.4 Global Response Operational Codes In acknowledgment (response) packets, the operational code <OPCODE> field of the message packet is set to 0 by the receiving devices when the message intended for the device is evaluated as valid.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces 4.9.5 Collision Avoidance When properly implemented, the physical and logical devices and ID addressing scheme of the COMMSPEC normally precludes message packet contention on the control bus. The importance of designating unique IDs for each device during station configuration cannot be overemphasized.
User Interfaces DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator Multi-drop override ID 01 can be used interchangeably to broadcast a message to a DMD-3000/4000 modem, a DMD-4500/5000, a DMD15 modem, or a DVB3030. Radyne Corp. recommends that the multi-drop override IDs be issued only during system configuration as a bus test tool by experienced programmers, and that they not be included in run-time software.
DM240-DVB High-Speed Digital Modulator User Interfaces 4.9.7 RLLP Summary The RLLP is a simple send-and-wait protocol that automatically re-transmits a packet when an error is detected, or when an acknowledgment (response) packet is absent. During transmission, the protocol wrapper surrounds the actual data to form information packets.
SMI. Radyne ComStream Corporation’s Private Enterprise Number is 2591. Other products are added to Radyne ComStream Corporation’s subtree as they become remotely manageable through SNMP.
