Input Connections
The Satellite Receiver interfaces directly to Low-Noise Block (LNB) and
accepts an intermediate frequency (IF) input in the band 950 - 2150 MHz
(L-band) for operation in the specified symbol-rate range (see Annex B,
Technical Specification). The unit can provide dc power and polarisation
switching to the LNB.

Introduction
1.3.3
What the Satellite Receiver Does
The Receiver can be tuned to a specified satellite channel frequency and
polarisation. The input is down-converted via a Low-Noise Block (LNB) to
provide an L-band input to the Receiver. The front-end tuning is
microprocessor controlled with a frequency synthesised local oscillator. A
software tuning and acquisition algorithm resolves translation errors
(mainly due to the LNB).
The signal is then passed to a demodulator that recovers the signal using
soft-decision decoding. The resulting stream is Reed-Solomon decoded and
descrambled to provide inputs to the Decoder circuit. The received channel
may contain multiple Services, therefore the Receiver’s demultiplexer is
configured to select a single video Service and other audio/data
components and present them at the output.

Introduction
1.4.2
What the Decoder Does
The ASI interface is used to present the Transport Stream in the format
required by the internal Decoder circuitry. At this point, the operation of
the unit is the same as the Satellite Receiver.
The Decoder can be used to receive an input signal from a Public Telecom
Network via a Network Adapter Unit (NAU). No error correction is
supported at the input of the unit so a level of Quality of Service should be
negotiated with the Telecom Network Provider.
The Decoder is configured to select a single video Service and other
audio/data components from the multiple Services on the incoming
Transport Stream and present them at the output.

Introduction
The IRD is designed for unattended operation. Once set up, the unit
requires no further attention except to ensure the fan is working. There are
up to three control modes associated with the Receiver (dependent upon
options fitted). The unit remains in the chosen control mode until another
mode is requested.

Operating the Equipment Locally
BISS (as specified in EBU Tech 3292 May 2002) is standard on all units. It
is not possible to have both DVB Common Interface and TANDBERG
Director options fitted on the same unit.
3.8.2
3.8.3
Basic Interoperable Scrambling System (BISS)
(Menu 4.4)
BISS Mode 1 is similar to RAS in that it uses a fixed control word to
encrypt the data in the transport stream. Unlike RAS, the scrambling
algorithm is non-proprietary, using the DVB Common Scrambling
Algorithm to allow interoperability with other manufacturers’
encoding/scrambling equipment.
Remote Authorisation System (RAS) (Menu 4.1)
RAS has two levels of operation: FIXED KEY MODE and DSNG KEY MODE.
FIXED KEY MODE has a fixed control word to encrypt the data in the
transport stream.
DSNG KEY MODE is used for fixed head-end systems. Its main functionality
is:
• Over-air addressing of Receivers for authorisation/de-authorisation to
decrypt the transmission.
• Group operation for authorisation/de-authorisation.
• Periodic control word changes during transmission.
3.8.4
3.8.5
TANDBERG Director (Menu 4.3)
There is a single slot on the IRD pack panel to allow the insertion of a
Smart Card for the TANDBERG Director system. Director functionality
includes Conditional Access, over-air software download and over-air
control.
Other than the insertion of the Smart Card, no specific set-up is required
at the IRD for the Conditional Access or software download. For over-air
control (NCP) see Chapter 4, Operating the Equipment Remotely.
DVB Common Interface (Menu 4.3)
There is a single slot on the IRD pack panel to allow the insertion of a DVB
Common Interface (CI) Conditional Access module (CAM) and related
conditional access card.
Other than the insertion of the CAM and Access card, no specific set-up is
required at the IRD for the DVB Conditional Access.

Remote Control
4.1.1
Introduction
The IRD can be remotely controlled in a variety of ways. The basic control
methods are:
• TANDBERG Device Controller (TDC)
• Third-party application using TANDBERG SNMP MIB protocol
• Third-party application using Alteia remote control protocol
(RS-232/RS-485)
• TANDBERG Director (over-air)
Common for all control methods is that the IRD needs to be set up to
accept the remote control handling. Once in remote control mode, it
cannot be locally controlled unless the remote control is deactivated.
4.1.2
4.1.3
Remote Protocol Control Documentation
For information about remote control protocols contact TANDBERG
Television.
Configuring the Unit for Remote Control Via SNMP

OAC Lockout
Once the unit is in OAC control mode, it is possible for the remote control
operator to issue a local lockout command to the Receiver. This will
effectively deny the local user access to configuring the unit.
However, if a situation occurs whereby the local user needs to regain
control over the unit, without a local lockout relinquish command being
sent from the OAC control PC, a four digit Personal Identification Number
(PIN) may be entered through the keypad.
CAUTION…
TANDBERG Television Customer Services Help Desk will not be able to provide you with the Local
lockout PIN, as it is uniquely created at the time of the lockout.
The user creates the PIN at lockout time. To obtain the PIN, please consult
the person responsible for the administration of the unit.

Introduction
There are two Front Panel LEDs that indicate the status of the IRD. These
are used to indicate abnormal performance of the unit.
Location of the Alarm and Lock LEDs
The red ALARM LED is used to indicate an equipment fault condition, for
example a missing or faulty input signal. It should be off during correct
operation, although it may be lit briefly during power-up.
The green LOCK LED is used to indicate that the equipment is locked to a
transport stream when lit, and indicates correct conditions and correct
system functioning.

ALARM LED
The IRD supports a summary alarm signal that is active when one or more
of the individual monitored alarm conditions are active. It allows masking
of unwanted alarm conditions so that they do not contribute to the
summary alarm. Configuration of alarms is via the Front Panel and remote
control interfaces. The state of the summary alarm is reflected by the
ALARM LED on the front panel where red represents an alarm, and off
represents no alarm.
This LED provides a high-level indication of an alarm within the unit. The
alarm list depends on the unit model. The unit continuously monitors for
the following alarm conditions during normal operation: (if not masked,
see Menu 6, Annex C, Menus):
• No transport stream
• Video not running
• Audio 1 not running
• Audio 2 not running
• Unit temperature

It is possible to signal additional alarms depending on the
Transport Stream input type and optional functionality in the unit.
Satellite inputs:
• Bit Error Rate (BER) above (programmable) threshold.
• Modulation Error Ratio (MER) above (programmable) threshold.

because the bandwidth is the difference between the lowest and highest frequencies transmitted. High bandwidth
allows fast transmission or high-volume transmission.
Byte-mode
CA
Each byte is delivered separately in the ASI Transport Stream, with stuffing data added between the Bytes to
increase the data rate to 270 Mbit/s. See DVB Document A010 rev. 1, Section B3.3, (ASI) Layer-2 Transport
Protocol.

without interference from other channels.
In the case of OFDM, a large number of carriers spaced apart at precise frequencies are allocated to a channel.
Channel Coding
Chrominance
A way of encoding data in a communications channel that adds patterns of redundancy into the transmission path
in order to improve the error rate. Such methods are widely used in wireless communications.
The colour part of a TV picture signal, relating to the hue and saturation but not to the luminance (brightness) of
the signal. In a composite-coded colour system, the colour information (chrominance, often referred to as
chroma) is modulated onto a high frequency carrier and added to the monochrome-format video signal carrying
the luminance (Y). In a component-coded colour system, the two colour-difference signals (R-Y)(B-Y) usually
referred to as CRCB (digital) or PRPB (analogue), are used to convey colour information. When CRCB (PRPB) is
added to the luminance (Y), the complete picture information is conveyed as YCRCB (YPRPB).
Closed Captioning
CODE
A TV picture subtitling system used with 525-line analogue transmissions.
Create Once Distribute Everywhere.
Codec
The combination of an Encoder and a complementary Decoder located respectively at the input and output of a

Glossary
COFDM
Coded OFDM: COFDM adds forward error correction to the OFDM transmission consisting of Reed-Solomon
(RS) coding followed by convolutional coding to add extra bits to the transmitted signal. This allows a large number
of errors at the receive end to be corrected by convolutional (Viterbi) decoding followed by RS decoding.
Compression
Reduction in the number of bits used to represent the same information. For the purposes of a broadcast system,
it is the process of reducing digital picture information by discarding redundant portions of information that are not
required when reconstituting the picture to produce viewing clarity. Compression allows a higher bite-rate to be
transmitted through a given bandwidth.
Compression System
Responsible for compressing and multiplexing the video / audio / data bit-streams, together with the authorisation
stream. The multiplexed data stream is then ready for transmission.
CRCB
CRC
Digital Colour difference signals. These signals, in combination with the luminance signal (Y), define the colour
and brightness of each picture element (pixel) on a TV line. See: Chrominance
Cyclic Redundancy Check: A mathematical algorithm that computes a numerical value based on the bits in a
block of data. This number is transmitted with the data and the receiver uses this information and the same
algorithm to ensure the accurate delivery of data by comparing the results of algorithm and the number received. If
a mismatch occurs, an error in transmission is presumed.
CVCT
dB
Cable Virtual Channel Table (ATSC).
Decibels: A ratio of one quantity to another using logarithmic scales to give results related to human aural or
visual perception. dB is a ratio whereas dBm, for example, is an absolute value, quoted as a ratio to a fixed point
of 0 dBm. 0 dBm is 1 mW at 1 kHz terminated in 600Ω. 0 dBmV is 1 mV terminated in 75Ω.
DCE
DCT
Data Communications Equipment: Typically a modem. It establishes, maintains and terminates a session on a
network but in itself is not the source (originator) or destination (end receiving unit) of signals (e.g. a computer, see
DTE). A DCE device may also convert signals to comply with the transmission path (network) format.
Discrete Cosine Transform: A technique for expressing a waveform as a weighted sum of cosines. Raw video
data is not readily compressible. DCT is not in itself a compression technique but is used to process the video data
so that it is compressible by an encoder. DCT processes the picture on an 8x8-pixel block basis, converting the
data from an uncompressible X Y form (as displayed by an oscilloscope) to a compressible frequency domain form
(as displayed by a spectrum analyser). Can be forward DCT or inverse DCT.
DDS
Direct Digital Synthesiser.
Decoder
The unit containing the electronic circuitry necessary to decode encrypted signals. Some Decoders are separate
from the receiver but in satellite TV broadcasting, the term is often used interchangeably as a name for an
Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD). The term IRD, or IRD / Decoder, is usually associated with satellite TV
broadcasting while Cable systems are based on Converters or on Set-Top Boxes / Converters.
Decoding Time-stamp
A field that may be present in a PES packet header that indicates the time that an access unit is to be decoded in
the system target Decoder.
DID
Data Identifier.
Differential Coding
DIL

receiving unit (destination) of signals on a network. It is typically a terminal or computer.
DTH
Direct To Home. The term used to describe uninterrupted transmission from the satellite directly to the subscriber,
that is, no intermediary cable or terrestrial network utilised.
DTS
DVB
Digital Theater Systems: A motion picture digital sound system.
Digital Video Broadcasting: A European project which has defined transmission standards for digital
broadcasting systems using satellite (DVB-S), cable (DVB-C) and terrestrial (DVB-T) medium, created by the
EP-DVB group and approved by the ITU. Specifies modulation, error correction, etc. (see EN 300 421 for satellite,

Interframe Coding
Compression coding involving consecutive frames. When consecutive frames are compared, temporal redundancy
is used to remove common elements (information) and arrive at difference information. MPEG-2 uses B and P
frames, but since they are individually incomplete and relate to other adjacent frames, they cannot be edited
independently.
Intraframe Coding
IP
Compression coding involving a single frame. Redundant information is removed on a per frame basis. All other
frames are ignored. Coding of a macroblock or picture that uses information only from that macroblock or picture.
Exploits spatial redundancy by using DCT to produce I frames; these are independent frames and can be edited.
Internet Protocol: The IP part of TCP/IP. IP implements the network layer (layer 3) of the protocol, which contains
a network address and is used to route a message to a different network or sub-network. IP accepts packets from
the layer 4 transport protocol (TCP or UDP), adds its own header to it and delivers a datagram to the layer 2 data
link protocol. It may also break the packet into fragments to support the Maximum Transmission / Transfer Unit
(MTU) of the network.

two 64 kbit/s B channels and one 16 kbit/s D channel (2B+D). If both channels are combined into one, called
bonding, the total data rate becomes 128 kbit/s and is four and a half times the bandwidth of a V.34 modem
(28.8 kbit/s).
The ISDN high-speed service is PRI (Primary Rate Interface). It provides 23 B channels and one 64 kbit/s D
channel (23B+D), which is equivalent to the 24 channels of a T1 line. When several channels are bonded together,
high data rates can be achieved. For example, it is common to bond six channels for quality videoconferencing at
384 kbit/s. In Europe, PRI includes 30 B channels and one D channel, equivalent to an E1 line.

B.1.4 HD SDI
HD SDI output supports:
• Embedded Decoded Audios
• Closed Captioning (EIA 708B)
• VITC
B.2
Audio Decoding and Output Stage
B.2.1 General
The IRD is capable of simultaneously decoding two PES streams of audio
from the transport stream. Each of the decoders is identical in operation,
but act completely independently of the other, with the following
exceptions:
• Both decoders must be decoding channels that have the same
sampling rate
• Both decoders are not required to simultaneously decode the same PES
stream
Each channel supports extraction of four types of coded audio from the
Transport Stream as follows:
• MPEG-1, Layer 2 Audio (Musicam): ISO/IEC 13818-3
• Dolby Digital AC-3 Audio: ATSC document A/52
• Linear Audio: SMPTE 302M – 2000
• DTS Audio pass-through
Audio component selection is automatic or may be specified from the User
Interface or remote interfaces. The IRD automatically detects the audio
type of the selected audio component and applies the appropriate
algorithm. Audio component selection is based on the position of the
component descriptor in the PMT. Audio 1 takes the first component,
Audio 2 the second. These may be overridden by selecting User-specified
component PIDs.
B.2.2 MPEG Audio
The IRD supports decoding of MPEG audio as follows:
• Compression layers: MPEG-1 layers I and II
• Sampling rates (kHz): 32, 44.1, 48
• Maximum compressed data rate: 384 kbit/s (layer II)
B.2.3 Dolby Digital AC-3 Audio
The IRD is able to decode and output the primary stereo pair of a Dolby
Digital AC-3 encoded audio stream. When there is data encoded on the
audio surround channels, the Decoder applies downmixing, so that either a
surround encoded stereo pair (LtRt downmix) or a conventional stereo pair
(LoRo downmix) is available at the output.
The IRD is not able to decode and output all 5.1 channels individually as
separate channels.
Page B-4
Reference Guide: TT128x High Definition Professional Receiver/Decoder
ST.RE.E10141.5
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Technical Specification
It is possible to output the compressed Dolby Digital stream from the
digital audio output, allowing it to be decoded to 5.1 channels by an
external Decoder.
Sampling rates (kHz): 32, 44.1, 48
Maximum compressed data rate: 640 kbit/s
NOTE…
Support for Dolby Digital decoding requires approval and licensing from Dolby. The compressed Dolby
Digital stream is not embedded on the SDI output.
B.2.4 Linear Audio
The IRD is able to receive audio data in the form of linear PCM digital audio
data, up to 20 bits in resolution, and makes it available for output as either
analogue or digital audio.
B.2.5 DTS Audio
The IRD is able to detect DTS audio Modes 1, 2 or 3. DTS audio is
presented in AES format at the digital audio output.
B.3
Audio Output Format
B.3.1 General
The IRD provides an independent stereo pair output for each audio
channel. Analogue audio is always output and the following digital audio
formats can be chosen from the User Interface and remote control
interfaces:
• AES3 format
• Dolby Digital (AC-3) compressed format
Digital Audio embedded into the HD Serial Digital Video Output is always
output using the DIDs for channel mapping specified at the user interface.
B.3.2 Analogue Audio
The IRD supports level control of the audio outputs. Independent control of
each output of each stereo pair is provided via the User Interface and
remote interfaces.
Audio output connector type: 2 x 9 way female D-type
Output level: +18 dBm nominal clipping level. Selectable in range +12 to
+24 dBm.
Output impedance: 50 Ω (nominal).

B.3.3 Audio Routing
The IRD supports the following routing of audio signal:
• STEREO (Channel 1 left, Channel 2 right)
• MIXED TO BOTH (Channel 1 and 2 on left and right)
• LEFT TO BOTH (Channel 1 on left and right)
• RIGHT TO BOTH (Channel 2 on left and right)
When the input signal is STEREO, the Audio digital output format will
always be STEREO.
Where a dual mono service is available, it is possible to configure the
output as MIXED TO BOTH, LEFT TO BOTH and RIGHT TO BOTH.
B.3.4 Lip Sync
The audio at the output remains synchronous to the decoded video by
default (i.e. where both video and audio streams are available from the
same service). In such circumstances the video and audio streams share
the same PCR.
The lip sync error (delay from presentation of video until presentation of
audio) introduced by the Receiver is in the range of ±5 ms.
The lip sync delay between stereo pair 1 and 2 is ±2 ms because the PTS
will be presented independently for each pair.
When using frame sync the lip sync error is up to 40 ms due to audio
frame skip and repeats.
