ASI/SDI via BNC serial cable, and/or LVDS/LVTTL via 50-pin connector, computer communications through two RS-232 ports, and can be programmed for custom applications. The DDPC is designed to fit one of the slots of the GMS Messenger Smart Receiver (MSR) or stand-alone.
For example, if connected to a GPS the transmitter location could be known at any time. Without disrupting the video stream, the DDPC will extract the User Data and send it to a computer through a RS232 port. All connections to the DDPC are located on the back panel.
Figure 1 Three CH MSR w/optional BDC-s and DDPC The DDPC can be controlled through the MSR USB or serial port (future), and it can also be controlled separately through its own USB or serial port from its back via an IBM PC using a Window’s based control program.

3. Attach the other end of the short BNC cable to the ASI IN connector. 4. Attach one end of the USB cable to the DDPC and the other end to the PC. 5. Attach one end of BNC cable to the DDPC ASI OUT connector and the other to the Decoder.
Hardware Overview The DDPC is designed to fit in one slot of the MSR or in an optional external 4”x3”x1” enclosure. All user interface connectors (RS-232, USB, ASI in/out and 50 pin LVDS/LVTTL) and two led indicators (System Active and Function Active) are located on the rear of the DDPC unit panel.
The DDPC fits into any slot in the MSR except #1 if diversity tuners are loaded. The MSR’s “switched 12 VDC” must be turned on for the card slot that the DDPC is in. The MSR can talk to the DDPC through the 80-pin connector via I2C port on the connector.
Function Active LED The Function Active LED indicates that data is being processed by the DDPC. If the light is off then the data is not being processed and is leaving the same as it enters. For example if the AES Decryption mode is turned on and the Function Active LED is on, the ASI stream is being decrypted.
SAMTEC MEC1-140-02-F-D-A. This gives the DDPC power and I2C control. The connector also passes through diversity tuner data from one tuner to the next. Table 5 shows the MSR MOTHER BOARD INTERFACE Connections. NOTE: The DDPC should not be placed in slot 1 if turners are used in the same MSR. SIGNAL...
AES decryption key and mode, high-speed data lost connection byte, and other needed settings. The DDPC can be setup once and will continue to run without flaw even when powered down, except when AES Decryption is set to “AES, NEVER Store the key in the DDP”...
Decryption key must be reloaded every time it is powered off. This is for higher security. AES, Store the key in DDP mode: This mode does AES Decryption and the DDPC remembers the Decryption key so when the DDPC is powered on it will come up working.
Serial Port Selector and connection region. There is no need to change any settings to make the DDPC function in High-Speed Data mode. The Option menu will only be enabled if you have purchased the AES Decryption option.
Value of Data when No Link: This box loads the No Link byte. This byte will be outputted when the DDPC is no longer receiving valid data through the link. PCR PID: This box loads the 13-bit PCR PID into the DDPC. The PCR PID of the DDPC must match the High-Speed Data transmitter’s PCR PID.
Descrambling Key. Apply Button: Load the DDPC with the new Descrambling Mode and Descrambling Key. Save Button: Clicking this button will save the settings to the DDPC so when power is recycled the DDPC will remember the last settings.
