the selected element. Some of the properties are displayed in an editable field featuring either a pull-down
select options menu (for selecting a new value for the property) or a free text (for free text setting of a

7.6 Cross
Connections
The ProView 7000™ device provides the ability to cross connect the input stream information
to the processing functions and the outputs of the device with DSR support. These functions
are made easy by the EMS and includes cross connecting input to outputs, selecting inputs to
the output decoding channels and defining the inputs for the CA modules.
The ProView 7000™ has up to four (4) input multiplexes and up to four (4) output multiplexes.
In addition, the EMS provides wizards to guide the user in creating these connections.

Setting Multiplex Cross Connections
The ProView 7000™ device features multiplexing any input stream to different outputs of the
device. The EMS makes it easy to cross connect an input stream, any program in the input
stream or any EMM in the input Conditional Access Tables (CAT). You can cross connect any
program from any input multiplex to any output multiplex as long as there are no programs
from another input multiplex already cross connected to the same output multiplex. You can
cross connect up to four transport streams from the RF and four (4) ASI inputs. You can
connect any physical input to as many multiplex inputs as you want.
Furthermore, the EMS enables multiplexing any input PID, including PIDs in the received
programs, as unreferenced multiplex output PIDs.
