  • Page 15 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Example: Injection from an MPTS into its DVB-C output: We are passing just 4 TV Services from the Input DVB-S2 MPTS to the Output in QAM: We add the PID 12hex (= EIT table for EPG) to the output. REMARK: Please do not perform a PID remap- just to be sure nothing will mismatch later.

  • Page 17 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual If you know, that your input streams are NOT using the same PID-numbers in their SPTS/MPTS streams Tables (DVB-PSI/SI) you can uncheck PID-remapping which is for avoiding conflicts. (Like as you are using different devices in a network with same IP addresses = Conflict) If you know you are not having/passing CA-PIDs in your input streams, you can check CA-Filter.

  • Page 19 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Remark: The Output max Data rate depends on the modulator output settings of this QAM channel: 256QAM, SR=7000 = > 51Mb/s. These settings can be well prepared before you configure the Input-TS in the Modulator section to avoid TS overflows because the modulator outputs were set to low values like 64QAM and low SR.

  • Page 20: Monitor

    HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual This would pass the whole content to the output (QAM + IP MPTS out). TSID and ONID should be already well pre- prepared and set according to your needs in the Master-Headend-Streamer device.

  • Page 21 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual While the output status shows the 2 different ones: Modulator and IP (as copy of the TS 1-16* Multiplexes) The advantage of pass-through mode is simple to understand: The EPG information will be kept in the TS. The TDT/TOT and other tables will be passed as well. The NIT will be passed as well (if containing) but: It might be a wrong one from a SAT-frequency which is of course not valid for a cable TV network.
  • Page 22 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual OUT: We partly must filter out the invalid NIT but this is not possible when full pass through is selected. Also, EIT ‘others’ should be erased as well as the invalid BAT and CAT… Even trying to manually insert an own designed WEB-NIT: Date 8.
  • Page 23 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Doesn’t do anything when we operate in the pass through mode. So the pass through is only worth for Master- Slave HE-designs like shown on page 2 : To be used in SUB Headends.

  • Page 24: Multiplex-Mode

    HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Multiplex-Mode So, we really need to go for MUX: multiplex, and add relevant PIDs: The NIT should be filtered out to the QAMs by default, because if the source is a Stream TS from original might be a Satellite Transponder, the NIT is not valid for a CATV Network.
  • Page 25 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual We see, the empty NIT has been added from our settings as well as TDT/TOT. But it needs to be filled with the local DATA of each QAM-Frequency you are pushing out. Of course, it’s work … Date 8.
  • Page 26 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Example if you pass the SAT-NIT from the input CH1 which is wrong (because from SAT): so better don’t do that and create an own (See above). Maybe worth to mention: The Logical channel numbers for each TV/Radio Channel for the STB’s or TV sets as DVB-C receivers in the CATV network to sort their Channel list –...
  • Page 27 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual So, we should be careful adding the real channels into the NIT: From here: After APPLY button: Date 8. Dezember 2022 *) depend on model types BLANKOM-HDC-5016-32_IP2QAM-modulator-V1.6-RR-12-2022.docx...

  • Page 29 HDC-5016-HDC-5064 IP to QAM Modulator User Manual Single streams can be added to a TS like: REMARK: Single streams often do not contain EIT / EPG PID’s -> So an EIT passing isn’t possible anyway. For mux operation EIT cannot be processed but passed only from a selected Input stream. Date 8.
