This page describes the device driver and the device window for Tandberg RX1290 DVB-S2 / HDTV IRD, controlled via SNMP.
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type. Tool-bar functions not mentioned here are described at the general description of device windows .
--- Contains the main receiver settings and status display.
--- Contains the conditional access parameters. See also the remark about RAS and BISS keys below.
--- Contains the parameters concerning the video, video test output and embedded audio assignment.
--- Contains the parameters concerning the audio outputs and the selection of the audio signals from the MPEG stream.
--- Contains the parameters concerning the ASI / SDI output ports of the device
--- The faults page.
--- The device info page.
--- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.Configuration parameters
At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the RX1290.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | Enter the IP address of the IRD here, in 'dotted quad' notation. The IRD requires the community string 'private' to be appended to the address. Example 10.0.0.1 private |
| lbandInputs | This parameter should be set to the number of L-band input the IRD is equipped with (1/2/4). |
| 22kHz | Makes the IRD apply a 22 kHz tone to the LNB power when set to ON. |
| 22kHzAuto | If set to ON, the driver switches the 22 kHz tone depending on the receive frequency. Frequencies above the 'bandEdge' value cause the 22kHz tone to be switched on, lower frequencies switch the tone off. The 22kHzAuto mode overwrites the the '22kHz' setting described above. |
| lnbPower | Selects if the IRD shall apply LNB power to the input. |
| lnbVoltage | Selects the LNB power supply voltage (13V/18V). This switches the polarization (13V=Vertical) with some LNBs. |
| lnbPolSwitch | If you set this parameter to ON, the 'lnbVoltage' parameter above becomes read-only and the LNB voltage is controlled though the 'polarization' parameter of the device driver (only makes sense with lnbPower=ON). |
| lnbBoost | Raises the LNB supply voltage by 1V if set to ON (long cable compensation). |
| loFreqHigh | The LO frequency for the high frequency band. The software sets the appropriate LO frequency every time before it changes the receive frequency. |
| loFreqLow | The LO frequency for the low frequency band. The software sets the appropriate LO frequency every time before it changes the receive frequency. |
| bandEdge | The frequency where the software switches the LO frequencies. |
| spectrumSense | Controls the spectrum inversion setting of the IRD. AUTO should work in most cases (switches to NORMAL for Ku-band LO Frequencies, INVERTED for C-band frequencies). |
| serviceHunt | If set to ON, the IRD receives the first available program in a stream when tuned to a new signal. With OFF, the IRD insists in receiving the service ID / PIDs which were set before. For SNG hub applications you will usually select ON, for distribution / relaying applications OFF. |
| deviceComment | An optional text entered here appears as an addition to the tooltip which is shown while the mouse is placed over a device icon in the GUI. The "\n" character sequence is translated into a newline character, splitting the text into multiple lines. |
