Overview 2-5 Options The DCT2000 supports a variety of options enabling your company to offer a system tailored to the individual needs of your subscribers.
2-6 Overview Key O p t ion 5 A RF OUT Name F u n c ti o n Dual A/B RF Bypass Used in a dual cable system; enables the cable signal on the current side (A or B) to go directly to a TV or VCR STARFONE Used in a two-way addressable system to send Impulse Pay-Per-View (IPPV) information to the DAC 6000 or other controller through the subscriber’s telephone hookup Optical Used to deliver Dolby Digital or PCM audio through an optical connector to an A/V receiver.
Overview 2-7 Remote Controls The basic DCT2000 uses the DRC 400 remote control. If your system offers optional interactive applications, such as an interactive program guide, a different remote control may be required. The application provider should supply user instructions for each interactive application.

Installation 3-5 RF Bypass Switch VCR Cabling Diagrams Proper operation of the RF Bypass feature requires special configuration in the control system and in the EPG settings. The STARFONE return module is used in a one-way addressable system to send information to the controller through the subscriber’s telephone hookup.

Installation 3-9 Dual A/B-RF Bypass Module Cabling Diagrams The Dual A/B-RF Bypass module is commonly used in dual-cable systems. Both Cable A and Cable B are cable signals coming from the service provider. The service provider determines which source will be the return cable. Choose the cabling diagram that matches the return configuration you need. The Dual A/B cable system using a STARFONE module utilizes the telephone modem as the return path to the service provider.

Installation 3-13 Stereo Cabling Diagram (Baseband) This audio configuration does not provide for a TV playing through the stereo.
3-14 Installation This audio configuration enables the TV to play through the stereo.
Installation 3-15 When all of the RCA audio connectors on the back of the stereo receiver are used, the DCT2000 enables audio to pass through an external device such as a CD player. In this configuration, a subscriber’s CD player can be played through the DCT2000 to a stereo receiver.
3-16 Installation Dolby Digital Cabling Diagrams The DCT2000 can deliver Dolby AC-3 audio to a Dolby Digital stereo receiver using the SPDIF RCA or optical cable with a TOSLINK connector. Because the SPDIF does not carry audio for analog channels, use both the baseband L/R audio and the SPDIF connectors when connecting the DCT2000 to a digital receiver. The optical connector carries Dolby digital for both analog and digital channels. PCM audio and AC-3 are the operation modes for the SPDIF connector.
Installation 3-17 Many Dolby Digital receivers are designed with A/V output ports that feed external devices such as a VCR. The AV output content is based on the selected input device. When the DCT2000 is selected as the input device for VCR recording, an alternate device cannot simultaneously use the Dolby Digital receiver, or the VCR will then record the secondary device.
3-18 Installation Using this configuration the audio/video signals are passed through the digital receiver to enable the VCR record and playback features.
Installation 3-19 When using the Dolby 5.1 optical output, the SPDIF and left/right baseband audio connections to the A/V receiver are not used. Figure 3-18 illustrates the Dolby 5.1 optical output connections: Figure 3-18 Dolby 5.
3-20 Installation Operational Check The operational check tests the communication link between the remote control and the DCT2000. The procedures verify the DCT2000 response to remote control commands. Table 3-2 lists the operational check procedures: Table 3-2 Operational check Feature Power on Testing Procedure Press POWER to turn on the DCT2000. Turn on the TV and tune it to the output channel of the DCT2000 (channel 3 or 4).
Section 4 Adding the IR Blaster Option The IR Blaster provides control of the subscriber’s VCR from the DCT2000. It consists of a low-power infrared transmitter attached to a six-foot cord and a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is a clear plastic holder with a pad of adhesive tape for installing the IR Blaster near the VCR IR receiver. A mini-pin connector at the end of the cord connects the IR Blaster to the DCT2000.
4-2 Adding the IR Blaster Option Installing the IR Blaster To install the IR Blaster: 1 Fit the transmitter into the mounting bracket (refer to Figure 4-1). 2 Plug the mini-pin connector into the IR jack on the rear panel of the DCT2000 rear panel (refer to Figure 4-2).

Diagnostics B-9 The first frequency to display is 75.25. The system scrolls through each frequency until it reaches the last, 103.75, and then scrolls back to the beginning. This diagnostic scrolls through the OOB frequencies in the following order: 75.25 MHz 104.20 MHz 72.75 MHz 92.25 MHz 98.25 MHz 107.25 MHz 107.40 MHz 110.25 MHz 116.25 MHz 103.75 MHz 3 Press SELECT to begin searching for the OOB frequency. While the DCT2000 searches for a frequency, the LED flashes.
B-10 Diagnostics d 03: In-Band Status The DCT2000 displays the in-band diagnostics for the last attempted channel tune. If a digital carrier is not present, the diagnostics indicate the carrier lock is analog. When the carrier lock is analog, all fields for digital (other than a carrier lock channel) are blank.
Diagnostics B-11 Data Activity Indicator − LED and OSD The data activity indicator lights when the DCT2000 is receiving a message. The indicator is blank when you enter this diagnostic and three seconds after receiving the last message. The indicator covers all packet processors regardless of which stream they are monitoring.
B-12 Diagnostics Signal-To-No ise Ratio (SNR) − OSD Only The SNR displayed on the OSD is a rough estimate of the carrier signal-to-noise ratio. The SNR displayed is a measure of the QAM cluster variance, which is proportional to the signal-to-noise ratio. Analog channels display analog for carrier lock. The SNR display a number for the numeric value and blank for the ssss value. A blank display indicates that the digital section of the DCT2000 is still in the initial state.
