DM-14B & DM-14Color Digimax
The DM-14B and DM-14Color meters allow you to visualise digital pictures of non-encrypted services (FREE-TO-AIR),
contained in the digital signals received at the RF input of the meter, in other words:
- Digital transponder transmitted via satellite with QPSK encryption,
- Digital multiplex transmitted via ether with COFDM encryption,
- Digital multiplex transimitted via cable with QAM encryption.
There are many services (TV or Radio programmes) inside a digital signal, such as the ones listed above. The
MPEG board allows you to see/listen to any of these services as long as they are not encrypted. To select one of
these services and obtain both the picture and the data of the Audio and Video PID, please refer to the
description of the “SERVICES” option in the MENU described on pages 22-27 and 34 of the manual.
It is important to note that when a digital signal is tuned and you want to see the picture of one of the services,
you should select a service using the “SERVICES” menu (see pages 22-27 or 34). Whenever a digital signal is
stored in a program in a memory plan, the visualization of the picture regarding a service contained within it
occurs only if this service was selected using the “SERVICES” menu. Consequently it is important to note that
every time you recall a digital program contained in any memory plan, the picture shown will be the one
belonging to the last selected service available for that transponder (see pages 22-27 and 34). If this selection is
not used, the board will not show any picture.
Example of a picture and relative data from the indicated transponder, obtained using the
“SERVICES” selection contained in the menu associated with digital signals.
