    Product description

The PC102W - single cable multiswich programmer (in the text - programmer) is useful instrument while configuring and troubleshooting SAT IF 
distribution system built on dSCR multiswitches based on new digital channel stacking components. 
The application software “dSCRmaster” for Windows operating system PCs allows simply change parameters of the multiswitch: operating mode 
(static or dynamic), frequency plan for static mode, frequency and bandwidth of user bands for dynamic mode, output power level of each user 
band carrier and etc. 
Service mode of the multiswitch could be switched on for quick finding the problem during installation work. In an internal memory four different 
configuration files can be stored (prepared on the PC) and send to the multiswitch by pressing dedicated buttons on the PC102W. 
The programmer can feed DC power for the multiswitch using the external AC/DC power adapter and allows parallel connection to a PC over USB 
cable. The remote Wi-Fi access allows to modify parameters of dSCR multiswitch from any device (tablet, smartphone, laptop, PC) using web 
browser. The PC102W, wirelessly connected to the WiFi access point, can be used for remote control and monitoring of the multiswitch. 
The programmer is supplied with an external AC/DC adapter (PS202F). An application SW “dSCRmaster” is available from the Web.

   Safety instructions

Installation of the programmer must be done according IEC60728-11 and national safety standards. 
Any repairs must be made by qualified personnel. 
To avoid the electric shock follow these instructions:
●   Do not expose this programmer to moisture or splashing water and make sure no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed 
  near or on the unit. 
●   Avoid placing the programmer next to heat sources such as central heating components or in areas of high humidity. 
●   Keep the programmer away from naked flames. 
●   If the programmer has been kept in cold conditions for a long time, bringing it into a warm environment may cause condensation, so allow it to   
  warm up for no less than 2 hours before plugging into the mains. 
●   Ventilation should not be impeded by covering the programmer, such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains etc. 
●  

The programmer

 must be fixed with steel screws Ø 3.5-4 mm. The screws are not included in a package. 

●   Always allow 10 cm of free space from the top, front and bottom of the unit to enable any heat to be dissipated.
