If the scrambling is
being controlled by
nCompass Control,
set the EIS port to
9000.
Check that this is also set to 9000 in
ConfiguratorService.exe.config. This file is
found in c:\Program Files\Tandberg
Television\nCompass Control\Bin.
Define the EIS Port
If nCC is not
controlling the
scrambling, set the
EIS port to the one
specified by the EIS
vendor.
Define the ECMG
Connection Timeout
Set to 30s
The connection timeout is the number of
seconds the CA will wait between sending
a channel test and receiving a response.
Define the Nominal CP
Duration
The nominal CP duration is the cryptoperiod
duration, measured in units of a tenth of a
second, as defined in the DVB Simulcrypt
specification. A value of 100ds gives a
cryptoperiod of 10 seconds.
Define the Connection
Test Interval
Set connection test
interval to 30
seconds
This means that the MX8400 will send a
connection test message every 30 seconds.
Define the SCS Port
If 1+1 redundant multiplexers are being
used, the peer SCS IP address must be set
to the IP address of the Floating CA Port in
the redundant multiplexer
Define the SCS IP
The default value is
2443
The peer SCS port must be the same on
both multiplexers
Set this flag to 0 if nCC is the EIS
Define the External EIS
Flag
If scrambling is controlled using a third-party
solution, e.g. EventIS, then set this flag to 1
