To access the Advanced Edit section, click the advanced edit hyperlink at the bottom of the Channel tune
screen.
There are multiple settings and information available in this section.
Advanced Tune
The Advanced Tune page can be used to change the main tuning parameters of a channel.
Additional parameters can be accessed by clicking the Advanced Edit hyperlink at the bottom of
the Basic Tune screen, which navigates to the Advanced Tune screen.
Information identifying the chassis / slot / tuner and card IP address currently being addressed is
displayed at the top of the page below the command links.
Chassis, Slot, Tuner
This value shows the Chassis number of the COM400, the COM400 slot and the COM51 tuner that
holds the COM51 card you are currently tuning.
IP
This field shows the COM51 IP address.
Most of the configurations in the advanced edit page are redundant to settings on the Overview page of the COM51 UI.
A detailed description of each advanced tuning field on the Advanced Edit page follows:
Dest_IP_Address
and Port #
This field allows manual entry of the IP address of the device you wish to stream video content to
(e.g., an edge QAM). COM51 will stream to any valid unicast or multicast address.
Protocol_Type
This field is used to control whether the COM51 streams the data in UDP or RTP packet structures.
The default value is UDP.
Channel_Object_ID
This field is the data that COM51 uses for tuning purposes.
It will be automatically filled in when a valid DIRECTV channel number is entered into the
“Major_Number” field.
Before the card has been successfully tuned, the default value is 0.
