Setup
Volume Up & Down
The Volume Up & Down buttons adjust the Master Volume level up and down in 10% divisions.
(0%, 10%, 20%,... 80%, 90% & 100%)
A message should appear in the top right of the screen to indicate the new volume.
Station Up & Down
The Station Up & Down buttons apply to any actively playing Ad hoc TV & Radio Stations . The Station Up & Down
buttons transform the Ad hoc item as if an Ad hoc User had selected the next station up or down (respectively) in that Ad
hoc Item's list of available stations. A message should appear in the top right of the screen to indicate the new stations
being changed to or to indicate that no Ad hoc TV or Radio Stations are playing.
Programmable Buttons
The four Programmable Buttons (A, B, C, D) can be used to provide Interactivity to Layouts and Playlists. A message
should appear in the top right of the screen if the button has no programmed Interactivity at that moment in time.
Status
The Remote Keypad Tab contains a status message indicating if the supported infra-red receiver is connected or not. The
receiver must be connected for the Remote Keypad Buttons to function.
9.4.6 TV Rebroadcaster
This page allows you to configure the Digital TV Rebroadcaster.
The digital TV Rebroadcaster receives Digital TV & Radio stations, and retransmits them as Streaming TV and Radio
stations. You must tune stations using the Digital TV & Radio page first. You can then retransmit any station from the list
as a multicast Streaming station.
Status
Normal status
The streaming station is the TV or Radio station being rebroadcast. This name matches the name on the Digital TV & Radio
page, while the name visible in streaming announcements is indicated by the announced as field.
Destination is the URL this stream is being rebroadcast to, for entering into PC clients, or to iCOMPEL players where you
have chosen not to use the announcement feature.
The Multicast TTL is the "distance" the multicast stream propagates through multicast-capable routers. It should be at least
1, to indicate that the stream will make it onto the Ethernet, and should be increased by one for each multicast router the
stream should pass through. Consult your network administrator for more information.
The streaming announcements address is the address that the iCOMPEL sends SAP announcements to. If this address is
entered in another iCOMPEL player's Streaming TV & Radio page, that iCOMPEL offers the station being rebroadcast as a
Streaming station under the "Announced as" name.
If the system has not yet tuned, you see not yet tuned displayed. Otherwise, last tuned at tells you when the
Rebroadcaster last retuned, while the tuned frequency is the current transponder frequency - it should match the frequency
shown for your chosen station in the Digital TV & Radio page.
Error status
The Rebroadcaster retunes if it is struggling to hold onto signal. If this happens, last tuned at is updated to the most recent
retune, and the number of times retuned increases. You see a glitch on receivers every time the Rebroadcaster retunes.
