a WEB server application that launches from the device. TSs can be sent out or in via UDP/IP or
RTP/UDP/IP protocols.
3D Support
3D is a very new area in the Broadcast industry. From a content collection standpoint it is normally
accomplished with two separate cameras that are GEN-LOCKED together outputting two separate Video
signals.
Content Collection Format
The encoder maintains a frame by frame synchronization as it goes through its processing.
AES Scrambling
The AES Scrambling option can be used to add security to your data transmission. The system scrambles
the payload portion of the TS packets. Only the TS header remains unscrambled to enable operation with
standard DVB-T receivers. The 256/128 bit-scrambling key is entered through the M2TE’s control
interface. The user can enable or disable the scrambling as well as choosing if the key is stored within the
Tx or not via CS’ Microsoft Windows control program. Encryption on/off is also available from the local
control panel (if it was previously turned ON).
Local Control Panel
The M2TE includes a simple local control panel that allows the selection of up to 20 set-up
configurations, Encryption Enable/Disable, switch between Mic and Line Level inputs and selection of 4
output power levels. Status indicators are provided for the presence of input Audio, Video and RF
output. Each of these set-up configurations can independently control every programmable parameter in
the TX including RF Frequency, Modulation Mode, Compression Modes and Video Resolution to name a
few. These Set-Up Groups can be configured by Administrative Personnel using the CS M.S. Window’s
Control Application prior to fielding the equipment.
This manual provides information on how to operate the M2T-E as well as pertinent technical
information related to the overall system. Refer to the model identifier (on-line document, 100-
MNI0115 - latest revision) at the Cobham website, http://www.cobham.com/tcs, for available frequency
and power configurations along with options.
