LCD Alarm or Warning

 

Meaning / Possible Cause

 

 

Message

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bad Video data

 

Video PES stream appears to be invalid. Check if other IRDs

 

 

 

 

see similar problem on the same program.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bad Video PTS

 

Excessive jumps or jitter in video PTS values. There may be a

 

 

 

 

defective uplink encoder or mux.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Content for ASI N/A

 

Program content requested to route to ASI output cannot be

 

 

 

 

found in over-satellite transport mux. Contact network TOC

 

 

 

 

and advise.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Content Routing problem

 

ASI transport output bears no program content because a

 

 

 

 

Content Routing Table has not been loaded from the network

 

 

 

 

or is corrupt. Contact network TOC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eb/N0 Margin warning

 

Eb/N0 value less than sum of Threshold + Margin—evaluated

 

 

 

 

over 10 sec. intervals. Unless the margin setting is incorrect,

 

 

 

 

this indicates a marginal downlink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FP email fail

 

An FP Email message was received which was corrupt or

 

 

 

 

invalid. User should acknowledge the warning to clear, and

 

 

 

 

then notify the network TOC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

High Error Rate

 

High errored seconds rate, presumably useless signal—

 

 

 

 

evaluated over 60 sec. intervals. Signal-to-noise ratio is

 

 

 

 

insufficient or there is severe terrestrial or antenna cross-pol

 

 

 

 

interference.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

High RF level

 

There is carrier lock, but the RF signal level is too high.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ID Tag Mismatch

 

Carrier ID frequency text mismatch. User or network has

 

 

 

 

entered carrier frequency text or tag site ID incorrectly or unit

 

 

 

 

is on the wrong carrier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ID Tags Lost

 

Carrier ID tags disappeared. There may be a failure at the

 

 

 

 

uplink inserter (UMX5010) or loss of COMPELPID. See "ID

 

 

 

 

Tag Mismatch" indication.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Invalid COMPEL Hdr

 

Invalid COMPEL header detected in incoming COMPEL

 

 

 

 

messages. This will cause the unit to immediately attempt

 

 

 

 

automatic recovery to a backup preset. The IRD is not set up

 

 

 

 

for connection to this COMPEL system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Invalid VBI data fmt

 

VBI data found in PID or video user data in unrecognized or

 

 

 

 

unsupported format (protocol).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Invalid video format

 

Video format in requested program is not supported.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IP address conflict

 

LAN detected but cannot use because of IP address conflict.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

KMS stream lost

 

KMS stream lost after initially detected in this transport

 

 

 

 

stream. There could be an uplink problem. See also "No KMS

 

 

 

 

stream" indication.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lost COMPEL PID

 

Data traffic at designated packet ID (PID) for COMPEL has

 

 

 

 

been lost for more than two minutes. See "No COMPEL"

 

 

 

 

indication.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lost VBI Data FN LM

 

VBI data for field N, line M has disappeared. If any is

 

 

(N=field number;

 

expected, contact network TOC.

 

 

 

M=line number)
