3 INSTALLATION
DD860 CHANNEL SELECTION / CHANNEL CHARTS 4
The front panel channel selection switches are
used to select the mode of demodulation, the
desired band plan (CATV or Broadcast) and the
specific channel number. Four blocks of 133
channels each are allocated to CATV channels
and two blocks of 68 channels each are
allocated for off-air broadcast frequencies.
CATV channels in 64 QAM modulation are
selected using switch settings 002 through 134.
These switch settings correspond directly to the
EIA CATV channel numbers.
CATV channels in 256 QAM modulation are
selected using switch settings 202 through 334.
To determine the switch setting, add 200 to the
desired EIA CATV channel number.
CATV channels in 8 VSB modulation are
selected using switch settings 402 through 534.
To determine the switch setting, add 400 to the
desired EIA CATV channel number.
CATV channels in 16 VSB modulation are
selected using switch settings 602 through 734.
To determine the switch setting, add 600 to the
desired EIA CATV channel number.
Off-Air Broadcast channels in 8 VSB may be
tuned by selecting channels 802 through 869.
Add 800 to the broadcast channel number that
corresponds to the actual RF transmission
channel. Do not enter the virtual channel
number, used by some broadcasters.
NOTE: IRC and HRC CATV formats are
supported by setting of an internal jumper.

All connections to and from each module are
made through the rear panel. Refer to Figure 4
for correct cable and wiring connections.
RACK MOUNTING
Adequate ventilation is very important in
multichannel installations.
Figure 4
The DRMM12 frames should be spaced apart
vertically by at least 1 3/4" wherever possible.
Air movement is mandatory in enclosed rack
cabinets. Excessive heat will shorten
component life.

The DD860 is designed to mount into the
DRMM12 rack mounting enclosure.
The DD860 is four units wide. Power for the
DD860 should be supplied by the model PS8
power supply module which also mounts into
the DRMM12.
