he HE programming software (order no. 330 630) facilitates programming X-5…V16
eadend systems with a PC or laptop computer. The user can store all headend para-
meters in the office prior to commissioning, for example:
●
received satellite
●
SAT programs
●
output channel
●
program video and audio parameters on PC or laptop and save to storage media.
he user also has the option of remotely programming and maintaining headend
evices via modem. These added features save the network operator service costs,
or example when changes occur in transponder assignments. They mean rapid
esponse in the event of processing card failure (replacement signal switching).
he software supports the replacement signal switching. To activate replacement
ignal switching, the network operator only needs to select the “failed module” and the
replacement module (redundancy).” Manually reconfiguring the operating parameters
or the redundancy module is not required. The following processes are performed
utomatically:
●
deactivating (HF) the failed module.
●
copying all operating parameters of the failed module to the redundancy module.
●
activating (HF) the redundancy module.
With the HE programming software up to twenty X-5…V16 headend devices can be
aved in a configuration file. From the menu item “Display unit” the user has the option
f accessing the program parameters of an already existing headend and can then easi-
y edit and modify. Current program satellite assignments are stored in their own ”SAT
rogram files.” The user can update and change these files when needed. ASTRO
ffers updating program assignments of the most common satellites via the Internet.

On - site –
during the commissioning –
the configuration data just have to
be transferred to the headend-sys-
tem via delivered zero-modem
cable and PC-X-5/10-adapter, or
via optional bus-system.
So the configuration of many pro-
grams is perfectly possible during
several seconds.
