HDE-8C DIN Series
Instruction Manual
Configuration Mode:
controls how the satellite receivers are tuned.
Automatic Setting:
Receivers will be tuned to the channels listed in the Settop Config file. Within a 20 minute period,
the HDE-8C DIN Series Encoder will update the receivers to channel numbers contained in the Settop Config file,
as well as maintaining the encoders intended QAM RF channels. This feature is used to prevent accidental channel
changing on the receivers front panel (if not locked) and on the encoder. The User must create and upload the file
for this feature to work (also see “Commit Changes to Config. File” under Manual Mode below).
NOTE:
The Automatic Mode cannot be used with the BaR Game Changer application.
The format for the text configuration file is “0, SAT Channel#, QAM RF Channel#” for each of the 8 receivers. File
name
MUST
be “settop_config.dat”.
Shown below (
) is a sample text file for 8 Receivers. This example uses Windows Notepad but any line
editor, including +, may be used to create the file.

Manual Setting:
This mode must be used when the unit is used with the BaR Game Changer application. Receiver
tuning is determined by the settings under “Main > Settop Control > Channel Config” (
) or through the
BaR Game Changer Application.
“Commit Channel Changes to Config File”:
This button is only available when in the Manual Mode. Once all the input/
output channel information has been entered on the appropriate screens, a new configuration file is created that can
be used for the Automatic mode (not for BaR Game Changer Application).
Virtual Channel Table:
CVCT (Cable Virtual Channel Table) is the only setting available.
System Watchdog:
When Enabled, automatically reboots the unit if the operating system stops working. When
Disabled, manual reboot is required in the case of above events. Options are: “Enabled” and “Disabled”.
System Reboot:
allows the user to remotely reboot the unit.
Flush Settop DB:
Deletes all existing receiver numbers. Used only when the HDE-8C DIN Series encoder has been
moved to a different system, or all the receivers have been replaced.
Settop Config File Control:
Deletes “Settop Config File”. A warning screen appears to confirm the action is desired.
Test Authorized Channels:
“Test Now”, when selected, will have a warning screen appear to confirm the action is
desired. Once initiated, the HDE-8C DIN Series encoder commands each receiver to tune all satellite program/channels
contained in the “program_names.dat” file. This file and this feature is used primarily in BaR Game Changer applications
but can also provide useful information regarding available programming in standard headend applications as well. Any
channel/program that is not authorized for viewing will be recorded in the Event Log. This operation cannot be stopped
until it is finished scanning all receivers against the program file. This process can take approximately 10 minutes based
on 8 receivers with 150 program channels.
NOTE: Does not return to original channel!
Control Port DHCP:
allows the user to define if the encoder will use a DHCP server address (if available) or the assigned
Control Port IP Address only. DHCP is needed when using the BT-HE-DASHBOARD Headend Controller. Options are:
“Static until DHCP” or “Static Only”.
