The Normal 64,800bit FEC frame provides better protection but introduces more latency compared to the Short

16,200bit FEC frame. Therefore, the

Short FEC frame type should be selected in applications where latency is critical and the longer frame type should be used to optimize protection.

The Rolloff selection will determine the shape of the output filter. The occupied bandwidth of the modulated signal is the symbol rate multiplied by (1+α) where alpha (α) is the rolloff factor. By using a lower alpha, carriers can be spaced closer together on a given transponder or an increased symbol rate can be realized for a given bandwidth.

Send

IP Tx Mode IP Tx Mode controls the protocol used for transmitting a transport stream

over IP.

UDP / RTP are ‘one way street’ types of protocols in which the transmitter sends data and is never informed if data is lost at the receiver. The use of

RTP assists with out of order packets and when combined with SMPTE2022

FEC, assists with lost packets.

SMPTE2022 FEC however comes with

the price of bandwidth overhead.

TCP, a connection based protocol, can overcome some of the fundamental limitations of UDP and RTP. TCP streams generally have higher latency, but can be more reliable because each packet is accounted for by the receiver. If a packet is lost, the transmitter will retransmit the packet. The transmitter and receiver continue to communicate about reception quality and attempt to adjust packet delivery accordingly.

The TCP mechanism when combined with large IP receive buffers can be more forgiving with packet loss, jitter, and out of order packets ( typically

used over the public internet ).

Multicast is not supported with TCP streams. TCP is recommended for point to point applications utilizing unreliable networks where high throughput and low latency are not required.

Latency

It is dependent upon the video rate, frame size/rate (NTSC,PAL,HIGHDEF) and GOP structure. Long IBBP GOPs will produce higher latency over short IP

GOPs. Short IP GOPs at lower bit rates produce lower quality video.

LONG: Latency will measure close to 1 second.

NORMAL: Should be used for distribution and standard contribution transmissions. Latency is approximately 1/2 second.

LOW: Latency is approximately 3 frames less than NORMAL.

VERYLOW: Latency is approximately 5 frames less than NORMAL.

Latency Trim

Use this setting in conjunction with the

Latency setting to fine tune the latency in order to match various manufacturers latency settings. The setting is rounded down and applied in video frame multiples (a +50 mSec offset would result in the following.. one additional frame delay with 29.97 frame material and two additional frame delays with 59.94 frame material).

Chapter 2 Getting Connected

Introduction to the Control Application

A webbased control software application comes preinstalled on the ENXX.

Compatible browsers

Firefox (recommended)

MS Internet Explorer

Safari

Chrome

Ethernet Access

To begin, you will need to connect to your ENXX via ethernet directly, or by adding the

ENXX to your local area network.The default address for all Adtec devices is

192.168.10.48.

To connect directly to the device, make sure that your computer and the device have IP addresses within the same IP class range (ex. 192.168.10.48 for the device and

192.168.10.49 for your computer).

If you need to change the IP address of the device, this can be done via the front panel,

System > Network menu. Using a CAT 5 crossover cable, connect one end to your computer and the other to the Ethernet port found on the processor section of the back panel. (Some

computers can auto negotiate the connection and a crossover may not be necessary.)

To add the device to a LAN, connect a standard CAT 5 Ethernet cable to your network router and then to the Ethernet port on the back of the device. If your network is DHCP enabled and you prefer that over a static IP, you can turn on DHCP for the device via the front panel, System > Network menu.

Zero Configuration Access

Adtec Digital has adopted zeroconfiguration networking technology, streamlining the setup and configuration processes for our products. The use of this technology enables automatic discovery of Adtec devices and services on an IP network. Used in tandem with the webbased control and configuration applications we can now provide 1click access to any device.

By using the builtin Bonjour locater in Apple's Safari browser or the plugins readily available for IE or Firefox browsers, users can locate all of the Adtec devices on a network by referencing the serial number on the back of the device. Clicking on the unit in the

Bonjour list will reroute you to a login page. If you do not wish to use Bonjour, you can reach the device’s web application by pointing your browser to the IP Address of the

device. Ex. http://192.168.10.48/.

Login

Once you reach the default login page for the webbased application, you will need to login by pressign the login button. You will be prompted for a username and password. The default username is ‘adtec’. The default password is ‘none’. The lefthand panel of the application will report current status in realtime while the right panel tabs will allow you to configure your device. As you navigate through the web application look for the ? icons associated with each parameter. By clicking on these question marks, you can view additional information about how the parameter is used.

Upgrading Via Web User Interface

Periodically, we will provide firmware updates to our products via our website.

(http://www.adtecdigital.com) To upgrade your device, download the firmware file from our website and store it locally. Login to the webbased application and navigate to the Upgrade

> Firmware tab. Click on the upload button located at the top right of the application. Select the firmware file from your local machine and wait for it to upload. Once it has finished uploading, it will appear in the Available Versions list. Click on the Install button associated with the new file. Wait for it to completely extract and become available in the Installed

Versions List. Once available there, simply click on the Select button associate with the new

firmware and wait for your device to reboo t.

Upgrading Via FTP & Telnet

For those times when using the web user interface is not convienent, you can upload the

firmware file via ftp and then extract and select into it via Telne t.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

FTP connections can be made to the Adtec device using any ftp client.

Host: <ipa of the unit>

Default Username: adtec

Default Password: none

Port: 21

You will want to drop the firmware file in the media/hd0/media folde r.

Telnet (standard 23 port)

To connect to your unit using a terminal session you will need to set the IP address of the

unit. See earlier instructions on setting the IP via the front panel.

Using a terminal window, complete the following:

Step Action

1 Type 'telnet x.x.x.x' in a terminal window, without quotes, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the unit.

2

3

Press <Enter>.

When prompted for a username, enter adtec.

4 When prompted for a password, enter none.

Once you see "User 'adtec' connected", the session is open and you may issue API commands to the unit.

To extract and select into the new firmware version you have uploaded, issue the following

commands.

*.sysd version search

Copy the line designating the location of the new file.

Then type:

*.sysd version extract “copied path to new file”

Wait for the extraction to complete. Once complete, type the following command:

*.sysd version

Copy the line referencing the firmware version you wish to use and then issue the following command.

*.sysd version select “copied new firmware version”

Once you press enter, this will reboot your device into the new version.

See series of commands as they occur during this process below.

Chapter 3 Operational HowTos

How to Use Vertical Interval Time Code

Vertical Interval Time Code (VITC) is typically used in transmissions that require time code from the originating source to be preserved. It was originally developed for analog television recording systems, but has new standards for transmitting in digital systems

(SMPTE12M1 / SMPTE12M2). Preserving time code is beneficial for future editing and playback of captured material.

ENXXseries devices can pass VITC ancillary data as part of the ANC PID. The ANC PID is a separate PES located in the transport stream. Additionally, time code within the GOP of the video will also be adjusted at encoder start up to match the incoming ancillary VITC.

VITC data packets will contain a DID of 0x60 and an SDID of 0x60. The VBI tab contains an

SDI ancillary inspector that allows users to view ANC data present at the input. This tab can be viewed for verification of present ancillary data at the SDI input.

To enable VITC passthrough:

Step

Source" for <SDI>.

On the

How to Configure Passthru Audio

Adtec ENSeries encoders have the flexibility to meet many demanding audio requirements.

Each model contains specific encoding options, but every Adtec ENSeries encoder supports two audio passthrus. An audio passthru consists of a compressed bitstream ( Dolby E 20 Bit

/ Dolby E 16 Bit / Dolby Digital / Linear Acoustic Stream Stacker 2 ) or an uncompressed stereo pair ( LPCM ) from an embedded SDI or AES input passed into the egress transport

stream ( IP, RF, ASI ).

The encoder supports passthru on the first four SDI/AES audio inputs. The SDI Matrix and

ASI Tranport Stream PID configurations allow for custom configurations if required.

Every audio input engine has an internal SDI Matrix to route any audio to one or multiple inputs. Each audio engine output can be assigned a user configurable PID in the transport stream to meet any job requirement.

If the passthru audio is coming in on discrete AES inputs, the ‘PID’ tab may be used to

manipulate egress PID’s as required.

If the passthru audio is coming in via embedded SDI, the SDI Audio Matrix may be used in conjunction with the ‘PID’ tab to manipulate the input and output routing.

To enable Audio passthru for Audio 1:

Step Action

.

5 Adjust other audio PID’s if necessary.

Common Passthru Problems:

Dolby E Line Placement and/or Dolby E Continuity Count Errors:

Dolby E audio compression technology is designed so that 1 Dolby E audio frame corresponds to 1 Video frame. This 1:1 ratio of video and audio timing was designed to assist in Video editing and seamless cuts without losing audio data. Due to the crucial and

sensitive timing, Dolby E encoders

other words, the SDI video timing feeding the encoder must match the same composite reference timing that is connected to the Dolby E encoder. A simple black burst generator that does not share the same SDI video timing

work to source a Dolby E encoder.

A composite video reference that shares the same timing as the video source should be

used.

The encoder preserves audio and video timing as it is presented. If the audio timing does not match video timing at the inputs of the encoder, there will be line placement errors and/or CRC errors seen on a decoder.

No Detection of Dolby E / Dolby Digital, Front Panel shows “DE ”, “DP ”, “LP ”:

The encoder will automatically detect the bit depth of Dolby E ( 16 / 20 bit ) and the bitrate of Dolby E / Dolby Digital. If Dolby E is selected and Dolby Digital is presented, the encoder will change automatically and vice versa. If Dolby Digital is selected and Dolby E is presented, the encoder will change the configuration automatically. If the front panel shows dashes for the detected bitrate ‘’, Dolby is not being detected. This is most commonly due to a misconfigured SDI Audio Matrix or Dolby not being present on the specified input

pair.

Look at the SDI signal on an SDI analyzer to verify that Dolby is present on the pair intended. If an SDI analyzer is not available, one troubleshooting tip is to set the mode to

ENCODE. If silence or regular audio is heard on the decoder, a compressed bitstream is not being presented on the corresponding input. The SDI matrix can be changed to each

pair without restarting the encode session. Once hash is heard, then a compressed bitstream should be present. Set the mode back to Passthru for the automatic detection

mechanism to configure the Dolby type and bitrate.

How to Use Auto Transport Mux Rate

Auto Transport Mux Rate (TMR) is a feature of Adtec ENSeries built with the optional modulator. This feature will automatically configure the overall data rate of the encoder (its

TMR;Transport Mux Rate), based upon its Modulator configuration. In other words, when the modulator Transmit configuration is set to 'ENABLED', the encoder’s TMR becomes the

Modulator's configured Interface Rate. The TMR is a key configuration for modulator functionality and must match the modulator interface rate.

Please note that the configured video and audio data rates must be lower than the targeted modulation data rate for this feature to work properly. For example, HD Video

(3Mbps) + 8 pairs of Mpeg1 Layer2 @ 384Kbps ( 3.072Mbps ) = ~6.2Mbps. The TMR will not fit into a 3MBaud DVBS QPSK 3/4 modulation configuration ( As 3Mbaud with this settings would only support a data rate of 4.14Mbps). In this case, additional audios would

need to be turned off or rates adjusted to meet the 4.14Mbps modulation data requirement.

How to Use ASIReceive

The Adtec ENSeries with optional integrated modulator has been designed with different applications in mind. The encoder / modulator combo supports three different modes of operation.

1) They can be used together.

2) The modulator only can be used as a stand alone device

3) The encoder only can be used as a stand alone device.

The default mode of operation has the ‘ASI Receive Mode’ configuration turned OFF.

In this mode, the SDI input serves as the primary SD/HDSDI video input into the encoder.

The encoder processes the video/audio/ancillary data and places the compressed data into a transport stream. The transport stream is fed concurrently to the ASI output module, IP output module, and internal modulator input. The ASI output will always be enabled, while

IP and RF outputs have individual controls.

The second mode of operation has the ‘ASI Receive Mode’ configuration turned ON.

In this mode, the SDI input is changed to an ASI input. This can be useful in situations where the encoder may not meet specific requirements for a job without losing up to

32APSK optional modulation capabilities. The ASI input is routed directly to the ASI output module and to the internal modulator input. All internal paths to and from the encoder module are terminated in this mode with encode functionality disabled. The modulator will be acting as a stand alone device with 3 ASI outputs available for premodulation monitoring capability. In this mode, the modulator interface rate must also match the ASI rate coming into the encoder for proper RF modulation. There is no reporting of the ASI input data rate or rate adaptation supported at this time. There is no null packet insertion or null packet dropping support at this time. The ASI input rate must be configured / viewed from the device feeding the EN unit. The third mode can be used by DISABLING

modulator transmit.

To enable your Adtec ENseries device for ASI Receive Mode, follow the following steps:

Step Action

"modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;

and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the

Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the

Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this

License. c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this

License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this

License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machinereadable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machinereadable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this

License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this

License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royaltyfree redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this

License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free

Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software

Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO

THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT

HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER

EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY

AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE

PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY

SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT

HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE,

BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL

DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR

A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER

PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public

License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public

License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the

Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 021111307 USA

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of the General Public

License. Of course, the commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouseclicks or menu itemswhatever suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 Ty Coon, President of Vice

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this License.
