Conditional Access
HE4000 Encoding System
If the HE4000 is reset, or looses power prior to issuing the CM SAVE command, any
changes made using the remote unit will not be restored. Instead, the HE4000 restores
the last changes saved to flash memory. Once the configuration is saved using the CM
SAVE command, the HE4000 automatically restores the saved settings when the unit is
reset or powered up.
To Disable PGCA at the System Level

Type tca enable off and press Enter.
Configuring PGCA from a Remote Unit
The following example shows how to add, delete, enable (authorize) and disable (de-authorize)
decoders using a remote unit connected to a HE4000. At the end of the example, the PGCA
configuration is saved to flash memory.
In this example, the following assumptions apply:
1.
Two decoders already exist in the database; both are enabled for PGCA. The existing
decoders are:
•
decoder1@11.22.33.44.55.66.77.88
•
decoder2@22.33.44.55.66.77.88.99
2.
Decoder1 will be disabled
3.
Decoder2 will be deleted from the database
4.
Three new decoders will be added to the database and remain authorized.
Enable PGCA
tca enable on
Enter the PGCA Scramble Key
tca mask <value>
Deauthorize Decoder – Decoder1 is Disabled or Deauthorized
tca deauth decoder1
Remove Decoder – Decoder2 is Deleted from the PGCA Database
tca delete decoder2
Add Decoders – Three Decoders are Added to the PGCA Database
tca add decoder3@33.44.55.66.77.88.99.00
tca add decoder4@44.55.66.77.88.99.00.11
tca add decoder5@55.66.77.88.99.00.11.22
When decoders are added to the database, they are automatically authorized, or enabled;
therefore, these three new decoders do not have to be authorized using the tca auth command.
