GigE TS Mode Menu

Press the 4 button until the cursor is at the GigE Default Gateway label, and press ENTER to move into the field. Use the arrow buttons (4) to enter the desired address and then press ENTER to confirm the selection and exit the field.

Press the  buttons until the Port GigE TS Mode menu appears. Use this menu to select which transport streams are routed to the GigE port and if the DSMCC data is also routed to the GigE port.

TS Mode Field

Default: Off

Press the 4 button until the cursor is at the TS Mode label, and press ENTER to move into the field. Press the  buttons to choose one of the four options: Off, Transcoded, Passthru, or Transcoded+Passthru. When Passthru is selected, a copy of the ASI OUT 1 transport stream is routed to the GigE port. When Transcoded is selected, a copy of the ASI OUT 2 transport stream is routed to the GigE port. When Transcoded+Passthru is selected, a copy of both ASI OUT 1 and ASI OUT 2 are routed to the GigE port. Press ENTER to confirm the selection and exit the field.

DSMCC Field

Default: Off

DSMCC data is IP data that is carried in the MPEG stream from the programmer. It is part of a programmer service and different programmer services may carry the same or different DSMCC data. The unit extracts the DSMCC data and outputs it as an IP stream from the GigE port.

Press the 4 button until the cursor is at the DSMCC label, and press ENTER to move into the field. Press the  buttons to choose either Off or On. When On is selected, the unit outputs only the DSMCC data from the first processor path (PR1). DSMCC data is not usually continuous, and so the unit only outputs DSMCC data when DSMCC data is present in the programmer service that is handled by the first processor. DSMCC data from other processor paths 2, 3, or 4 is disregarded. Press ENTER to confirm the selection and exit the field. When Off is selected, the unit does not output DSMCC data.

GigE Output Transport Streams

Transcoded and Passthru transport streams are separate and unique streams that can share the one physical GigE output port. The next two Port GigE IP menus described in this section provide a way to route each of these streams.

Note: For PID values associated with the GIGE output port, see "PID Mapping" on page 15.
