Stream_ID
- This field is optional, and allows a unique identifier to be applied to every
video stream produced by the COM2000 system. The allowable values for this field are any
whole number between 1 and 65535. The default value is 111. To enable a second audio
stream set the Stream_ID to 54000.
Security_Mode
- Typically, this field will not need to be changed. The only settings most
should be concerned with are:
o
None - Setting will only work on DIRECTV channel 100. This allows you to turn
Pro: Idiom encryption off so that a standard HDTV or PC-based utility like VLC
Media Player can be used for troubleshooting.
o
Pro_Idiom – This is the standard setting for HD Pro:Idiom encrypted channels.
o
Simulcrypt - The Simulcrypt mode is used with the Samsung LYNK© system.
o
Transcode – Transcode is to be used only with Video Propulsion Floodgate MPEG2
Edge QAM.
Persistent
- Setting this value to ‘1’ tells the COM46 to retain all channel and IP-
destination settings in memory (i.e., data entered into the card is “persistent”). This
eliminates the need to reprogram the COM46 cards after every power-cycle or reboot.
Persistent is on by default (i.e., 1). It should be on for most installations. Otherwise, all
settings will be lost in the event of a power interruption.
