User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI 1.3. Description and connections The module TSQ 310 CI 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-C (QAM) 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 · TSQ 310 CI Stages of transmodulator TSQ 310 CI Input Selection of a tuned satellite transponder Transmodulation The tuned channels of the transponder are modulated according to the DVB-C rules. If the transponder has encoded channels, in order to distribute them freely you have to install the PCMCIA + subscriber card in the Common Interface Out Configuration of the channels and output parameters 1.4. Programming TSQ 310 has two ethernet connectors.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI 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 TSQ 310 transmodulator, you will have to go to “Tools” option through the key 8 of your field strength meter and to select the “Prog Transmodulators “option. Then, it will proceed to recognize the module and to show the main menu. In the “Prog.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI 2. State of the module In the option “State of the module” are specified the main parameters of the module at this moment. - Transmodulator input: 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 · TSQ 310 CI 4. Modulator configuration This option allows you to configure the DVB-C modulator that the device has. - Symbol speed: The available symbol speed ranges from 1 to 6.96 MS/s. In order to estimate the output symbol speed you have to take into account the following parameters: input modulation, input symbol speed, input FEC, output modulation.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI 6. System This option provides information of the transmodulator. - System logfile: In this field are indicated the registered events in the module. - Read log: It allows reading the registered events in the module. - Clear log: It allows deleting all events stored until this moment. - Export log to USB: It allows you to export all events registered to the connected USB device.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI - Configure all devices: - Input values to all devices: It allows copying the current input configuration in all the interconnected modules. - Modulator values to all devices: It allows copying the configuration of the current modulator in all the interconnected modules. - Output values to all devices: It allows copying the current output configuration in all the interconnected modules.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI Adding services: 1. Select “Service to add” option 2. Select one of the transponder services you want to add. 3. Once you have chosen the service, select the “Add/Remove” button to include the service in the multiplex. Note: It is not recommended to exceed the 85% of the maximum capacity of the multiplex due to the possible variability of the bits rate of the inputs services.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI - Remove all services: It allows removing all the services included in the multiplex. - Modify LCN: The LNC function allows assigning automatically a predetermined position to each one of the services of the multiplex. This function will allow the users who have a receiver with LNC support to make the ordination of channels automatically.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI - HDSimulCast: In cases where we receive in an installation the same channel in high definition and in standard definition, the HD Simualcast function allows to exchange the position of the LNC of both channels. If the user has a device compatible to HD Simulcast and the module has been correctly configured, when tuning the standard definition channel, it will move to its position in high definition automatically.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI - Deactivating all decrypted: From this option you can remove all the services that are decoding the conditional access card. PRO 201 Note: From PRO 201 programmer you can only carry out the programming of a single module, in order to carry out the programming of several modules at the same time you have to use a mediaMAX EVO or mediaMAX MINI series field strength meter. When you connect the PRO 201 programmer, it will proceed to recognize the module and to show the main menu.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI - Auto SR (Auto Symbol Rate): You will be able to select if the detection of the Symbol Rate is going to be Automatic (On) or Manual (Off). - In Manual mode (Off), the value of the Symbol Rate should be fixed by the user based on the provider’s information. - In Automatic mode (On), the meter will automatically identify the SR when a Satellite carrier is tuned. This feature is very useful when the provider’s information is unknown.
User’s manual · TSQ 310 CI 2. Auto This option allows saving and loading the configuration of the module in the PRO 201 programmer. TSQ310CI > *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: TSQ310CI TSQ310CI TSQ310CI 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 · TSQ 310 CI 1.5. Accessories and example of installation Example of installation Installation that consist of 6 TSQ 310 CI and that will allow tuning channels up to 6 different transponders and to distribute them through a network of modulated cable in DVB-C. The distributed channels need a cable receiver in order to be decoded. In order to distribute the encoded channels freely you have to install the PCMCIA + subscriber card in the Common Interface slot.
