ANC (Ancillary Data) Session Application
The ANC Data Session application allows you to examine all the ancillary data present
in a signal. The instrument continually monitors the signal and tells you when changes
in the presence of data occur.
Select the Clear icon ( ) to reset the monitoring session for both the WATCH LIST and
the SCTE104 pages.
Note: PRISM monitors the first 4 links of the 8 logical SDI links in Quad Link 3G LB and
Quad Link 12G.
Note:
A green checkmark in the WATCH LIST name column means data is being
continuously received. A yellow exclamation mark means data has been received but
it has stopped.
WATCHLIST Tab
Watchlist tab provides a list of the detected ANC data. It also reports the last detected
time, so an infrequent ANC data, such as SCTE-104, can be monitored in the Occurrence
column. The Line/Sample information, in conjunction with Datalist display, helps you
diagnose the ANC data at the bit level.
DID: Data identifier of the packet; permissible values range from 1 to 0xFF (255)

0xFF (255) inclusive.
LINK: Virtual link or stream the ANC data is present on.
LOCATION(S): Transport line number the ANC data is present on.
