In this menu all services of the adjusted transponder and their CA status are listed. If you want to make adjustments or changes first
the “Refresh“ button must be activated to get the current transponder allocation. The services are selectable for decryption. For
each of this selected services one can determine, what streams or PID‘s are to be decrypted. That‘s important because the maximum
number of the decryptable PID‘s is limited and this limit has a different size per CA module.
In the selection boxes “MPEG 1/ 2 Audio Streams“ respective “Subtitling Streams“ all, no or individual streams are selectable. If one
wants to select more than one stream, but not all, the selection field ”all“ in the box is to be selected and in the column “PID block list“
all PID‘s have to be entered, that shall not be decrypted.
1
In the column “PID block list“ all PID‘s are listed, that shall not be decrypted. The PID‘s can be given in decimal or hexadecimal format
and have to be separated by a semicolon. The maximum number of PID‘s is 10.
2
If “Settings all equal“ is clicked, only one service for
PID selection is offered and the taken settings are automatically transferred to all other services to be decrypted.
By clicking the “Test“ button the CA module will be initialized and all services, which are saved in the CA-service-list, will be tested for
the current decryption status. After the end of the test the result of the test appears on right side, where a green check mark means,
that the test was successful. On the other hand a red cross means that the test was not successful and the requirements for this ser-
vice must be corrected, e.g. too much PID‘s were selected.
1
“Other Audio Streams“ includes all AC3-, DTS- and AAC-Streams. “Private Streams“ selects all streams which are not captured by the other selection
fields.
2
Particularly PID‘s can be given here, which are active only at times and no authorisation for decryption is available for them.
The default is that the table editing (SDT, PMT, EIT) is performed. Thereby the CA descriptor 0x09 will be replaced in the PMT through
the user-defined descriptor 0xFE. If this descriptor is already used by the service provider, in the “Setup“ menu and then “GUI set-
tings“ (see section 7.3.8), the field “Tag selection (for decoded pid)“ must be enabled. Thus, the option “DVB tag (decoded TS)“ also
appears in multidecryption menu at each service. At this point, a user-defined descriptor from the range of 0x00 to 0xFF will be selec-
ted. It should be noted that this descriptor is not already used in the service.
After returning from the multidecryption menu each of the 4 CA modules can be configured. Per slot is shown here that the module is
initialized, if there is readiness for work and which type of module it is.
Individual CA modules must be initialized before setting the CA services. For this purpose the box “Reset slot“ is clicked.
The mode of the CA-PMT update will be adjusted on the next line. You can select between CA-PMT list and CA-PMT entry, where the
latter is not supported by all CAM‘s.
Some CA modules require the resource “Date & Time“ for initializing. For all other modules this setting should be disabled.
Click the button above right to get into the CA menu. There, the menus implemented in the CA module are offered the user. The
menus can be selected individually or sequentially accessed in order to make necessary adjustments or to retrieve information to the
CA module.
It should be noted that when changes in the channel (e.g. transponder switching, CA module change or removal) are done, the full
menu has be passed through to update the internal tables. For this purpose, as described above, first the necessary changes in the
signal path are to determine and then call the multidecryption menu for the affected channels. First there must be called again the
channel list by pressing the the “Refresh“ button, and then the appropriate stream selection must be made. This is also necessary if a
module has been removed and a free transponder is to be transmitted in this channel. Finally, in the “CI setup“ the change is to con-
firm by pressing the “Send“ button that this is also taken internally.
