Install a Pro:Idiom Key on All Transcoders
The Pro:Idiom encrypter built into the transcoder cards contains a default encryption key. When
first installed, the cards will use this key to encrypt content. This command enables you to
change the encryption key, if necessary.
This command installs the Pro:Idiom key on all the transcoders installed in the chassis (includ-
ing any transcoders in Slots 3, 6, and/or 10). To install a Pro:Idiom key on a single transcoder,
see “Install a Pro:Idiom Key on the Selected Transcoder” on page 41.
Note: In order for a Pro:Idiom encrypted channel to be displayed, the receiver
must contain a Pro:Idiom decrypter, and the receiver must be configured to allow
decryption of the desired channel.
Note: The process of updating the encryption key will synchronize the decryption
key in any receiver tuned to the cards’ output. If the target receiver is turned off or
viewing content from a different card, the synchronization will not occur, and the
output will be scrambled. Ensure that all encrypters and decrypters in a system
are synchronized to the same key.
