Installation guide

English

To be able to run QAM or COFDM together with some Set top boxes in order to

avoid the message ”New channels found”, due to NIT and SDT update, you have

to do the installation in the ESX/ETX/ECX-200 Head end according to the

following instructions:

1.Make sure there is no QAM or COFDM signal out from the Head end during the

installation/modification.

2.Make all settings in all units including Network settings and LCN.

3.Write following command via Telnet in the units that has COFDM or QAM as

output: tsmux.box_variant(2)

4.Remove the power from these units and reconnect one of the units.

5.Wait 2 minutes before connecting the next unit to power.

6.Connect the next unit after one minute and proceed with the rest until all units

are powered.

7.Connect the RF out again from the Head end.

We recommend you to do a new channel search in the STB:s after this operation.

The command ”tsmux.box_variant(1)” sets back default functionality.

If you want to go back to box_variant(1) do the same procedure as for

box_variant(2).

NOTE! Above described functionality will only be available when all EXM units

are connected through a switch.
