Appendix D. SETTING UP A
DIGICAST DIGITAL SATELLITE
D.1

Introduction

Setting up a digital satellite receiver for the delivery of IP or transport stream information over an
Asynchronous Serial Interface (ASI) involves more than just configuring the data related
parameters. The person performing the configuration must have knowledge of both
communications concepts and satellite communications. Section D.5, Important Terms to Understand,
contains information that will help the individual performing the configuration by explaining each
parameter and what parameters must be on hand when setting up a Digicast satellite receiver. It is
recommended that these terms and concepts be thoroughly understood before proceeding with the
setup process.
To complete the setup of a Digicast Satellite Receiver, follow these steps:
1. Understand the significant terms and parameters (Section D.5)
2. Gather the required information (Section D.2)
3. Verify frequency values (Section D.3)
4. Apply the required information to the primary and secondary configurations (Section
D.4)
