-20dB QAM RF TEST (AQT8-QAM/IP Only):
"F" female connector for QAM RF output signal, 20dB lower than the actual
QAM RF output. Used for test purposes, without taking the unit out of service.
Input STATUS LEDS # 1 through 8:
LED is Off = input channel tuner not locked.
LED is Green = input channel tuner is locked.
LED is RED = error detected in input stream.
LED blinks = corresponding QAM output is off or in CW mode
Power LED:
LED is Green = the AC power is detected.

NOTE:
The current EAS behavior is an all or nothing program
override. When EAS is activated, all transports will have their
program content replaced with the EAS program content.
EAS will not activate unless EAS is enabled and the EAS TS
is detected. The EAS can be activated using the contact closure on the back of the unit or by a test button in the UI.
ASI EAS IN: BNC connector for SPTS EAS input stream.
IP EAS IN:
RJ45 connector, 1000Base-T (GigE) interface for SPTS EAS IP input.
It is recommended that EAS ASI or IP inputs should be SD with a TS bit rate of 2.5 Mbps (typical). Higher EAS
TS bit rates can be used but they should not exceed the lowest bit rate program in all IP outputs.
