User’s manual · TSF 310 1.3. Description and connections The module TSF 310 is used for the reception of free channels that obey the DVB-S/DVB-S2 standards. Each module allows the reception of a complete transponder in DVB-S (QPSK) / DVB-S2 (QPSK/8PSK), and the subsequent modulation in DVB-T (COFDM) of it. A feature of this equipment is its modulator in Vestigial Side Band (or VSB). This modulation can be used to distribute adjacent channels in one distribution without any intermodulation problem.
User’s manual · TSF 310 Stages of transmodulator TSF 310 Input Selection of a tuned satellite transponder Transmodulation The tuned channels of the transponder are modulated according to the DVB-T rules. If the transponder has encoded channels, the final user will need a receiver with CI+ subscriber card or an encrypted channels receiver. Out Configuration of the channels and output parameters 1.4. Programming TSF 310 has two ethernet connectors.
User’s manual · TSF 310 1.4.2. Programming Below you will find the steps to follow in order to make the programming both from corresponding EVO and MINI field strength meter as well as from PRO 201. mediaMAX EVO / mediaMAX MINI In order to start programming the TSF 310 transmodulator, you will have to go to “Tools” option through the key 8 of your field strength meter and to select the “Transmodulator Prog.“ option. Then, it will proceed to recognize the module and to show the main menu.
User’s manual · TSF 310 2. Device Status In the option “Device Status” are specified the main parameters of the module at this moment. - Front End: It indicates whether the module is hooked or without signal. - Input bit rate: Transfers of data in the satellite tuner input. - Output bit rate: Transfer of data in the module output. - BER before and after Viterbi: It indicates the error rate of bits of the input signal before and after the correction produced by Viterbi algorithm.
User’s manual · TSF 310 - Modulation: Output modulation format: 4 (QPSK), 16 (16 QAM), 64 (64 QAM). - Advanced settings: - Mode: Selection of the modulation standard: DVB-T and DVB-H. Note: The output useful bits rate will depends on the following parameters: Bandwidth, guard interval, FEC codification and modulation. In the Attachment I you will find all the information related to the resulting useful bit rate in each configuration. 5.
User’s manual · TSF 310 - Settings: This option allows saving and loading the configuration of the module, carrying out firmware update or making an adjustment of the time and date of the module. - Clock: - Set Date and time: Setting of the date and time of transmodulator. It is appropriate to maintain these parameters set in order to have the registration of errors linked to the current time and date.
User’s manual · TSF 310 7. Program management - New program: This option allows creating a program with the current configuration of a module or group of modules. - Load program: It allows loading a previously created program on a module or group of modules. - Delete program: It allows deleting a program. - Device to process: - Current: The creation or loading of a program will be applied only in the module that is currently connected.
User’s manual · TSF 310 Excessive capacity It is recommended to remove services Recomendad capacity (lower to 85%) Removing services: 1. Select the “Service to remove” option. 2. Select one of the transponder services you want to remove. 3. Once you have chosen the service, select the “Add/Remove” button to remove the service in the multiplex. - Remove all services: It allows removing all the services included in the multiplex.
User’s manual · TSF 310 - Services: - Change service name: It allows changing the name of the service manually. In order to do so, please choose the service in the first line and then write the new name in the second line. Then you have to press “modify” in order to save the changes. Next it is attached the identification table (NID/ONID) of the main satellites. You will be able to find more information in the law ETSI TR 101 162 v1.2.1.

User’s manual · TSF 310 - Freq (Input Frequency (MHz)): Transponder frequency that you wish to tune. In order to introduce the frequency, press the “OK” button and the cursor will be placed over the frequency. With the keys of the cursor, we can move through all the digits and change the values. Press “OK” in order to save the value. - Symbol Rate: Symbol speed required by the transponder. In order to introduce the symbol rate, press the “OK” button and the cursor will be placed over the frequency.
User’s manual · TSF 310 2. Auto This option allows saving and loading the configuration of the module in the PRO 201 programmer. TSF 310 > *Read from Module* *Write to Module * - Read from module: It stores the current configuration of the module in the memory of the programmer. The steps to make a correct reading of the headend are specified below: TSF 310 TSF 310 TSF 310 CFG:03 > *Read from Module* *Write to Module * 1. Select the option “Read from module” through Up/Down buttons.

A window will appear and it will let you know that the operation made has been correct.
User’s manual · TSF 310 1.5. Accessories and example of installation Example of installation Installation that consist of 6 TSF 310 and that will allow tuning channels up to 6 different transponders and to distribute them through a TV network in DVB-T. The distributed channels need a terrestrial receiver in order to be decoded, in this case we propose a PVR T160 CI HDMI receiver that would decode free channels and also encoded channels if we insert a PCMCIA with the corresponding subscriber card.
