Presets
Factory-Installed, Athena/A&E Presets
To facilitate easy installation for cable headend operators, a number of Athena/A&E
preset configurations have been loaded into the MDR at the factory. These include
configurations for all relevant menus such as input selection, Inboard Security
Element (ISE) assignment for program decryption, and routing of various
(descrambled) programs to transport outputs.
1. Attach a video monitor to the Monitor Analog Video output of the MDR.
2. Attach the L-band input to RF input 1 on the rear panel of the MDR.
3. Apply a-c power to the MDR.
4. Press
the MENU key on the front panel to access the
R10-Main Menu
screen.
5. Move the cursor to the Preset icon, then press SELECT .
6. Select the Recal button in the pop-up box.
7. Type in the number to recall the preset configuration (for example, 1 for Athena
1, 2 for Athena 2, … 8 for A&E). The preset configuration will be loaded (it may
take a few seconds to load the configuration from memory.)
All five factory configured presets (1,2, 3, 4, and 8) are set to Lock level 1 to
protect them from accidental change. To unlock and change the configuration
and RF parameters, refer to the next section in this chapter.
8. Once the preset is selected, you should achieve input signal lock. This will be
evident by the SIGNAL LED being illuminated. If your MDR cannot lock to the
input signal, go to the Diag(nostics) Menu and read the help associated with the
red buttons to determine the problem.
Depending upon your application and requirements, you may need to further
modify the configuration to suit your implementation. 64QAM channels can carry 27
Mbps whereas 256QAM can carry 38.8 Mbps. Due to bandwidth limitations, you
may not want to route all programs to all outputs.
