ASSIGNING A PROGRAM CHANNEL TO A PE (PROGRAM ENTRY)

For Affiliates outputting both HD and SD from a single D9858 – PE 2 must initially be assigned
to a different channel from PE 1 to allow for ASI/MoIP output sync as the receiver cannot
output the Network in HD and SD on the same output values for channel, PMT and PID. The
channel to which the receiver is tuned will be changed to match at the end of Configuration #2
or Configuration #3 and will define the video content.

Configuration #1: Tuning the Channels

1. At the Start-up Menu, enter 14 and press SELECT to change PE1 to 14 (NorthWest HD)
2. Press ADV on the keypad (the diamond will move in front of PE1). Press ▼ to change to PE2.
3. Press ADV again (the diamond will move back in front of the channel number) and enter 15 and press SELECT
to change PE2 to 15 (NorthWest HD Alternate) – this is required to initially synch the ASI and/or MOIP1
(MPEGoIP) outputs.
4. For Affiliates only outputting either SD or HD on PE1 from a D9858 – PE 2 must be set to 0 (zero).
5. Press ADV and press ▼ to return to PE1.
6. Press ADV again to return to the channel # selection.
7. You will ONLY be able to view programs from PE1 on the composite monitoring port (the composite monitoring
port is automatically downconverted to an SD signal).

Configuration #2: ENABLING the ASI OUTPUT

- For Enabling the MOIP1 (MPEGoIP) output, go to Configuration #3
1. From the Start-up menu, press MENU to access Main Menu.
2. Press ► to go to the Setup menu and press SELECT.
3. Press ▼ to go to the Outputs menu and press SELECT.
4. Press ► to go to the TS Out menu and press SELECT.
5. At the ASI menu, press SELECT and then press▼ to Output Mode and press SELECT.
6. Press ▼to Transcoding and press SELECT.
7. When “Resync All?” is displayed, press ► to Yes and then press SELECT.

to No, then press SELECT and press ▼to change from No to Yes. Press SELECT.
9. Press MENU to go back to ASI. Press ► twice to DPM and press SELECT.
10. Press SELECT to access the Global menu.
11. At ASI, press SELECT to Resync. When “Resync?” is displayed, press ► to Continue and then press SELECT.
12. Press APPLY. Failure to perform this step will result with no ASI output.
13. At “Save Changes?” press SELECT to save.
14. Press MENU 6 times to return to the Start-up menu.
15. If you are also enabling the MOIP1 (MPEGoIP) output, then skip steps 17, 18, and 19 below and proceed to
Configuration #3 below.
16. Once at the start-up menu, press ADV and then press▼ to change to PE2. Press ADV again and type 14 to
change PE2 to 14 (NorthWest HD).
17. Press ADV and press ▼ to return to PE1.
