Broadcast Sessions 
If you have QAM modulators that carry broadcast sessions, use Cisco's Report 
Writer to generate the Channels, Sources & Sessions Report. This report lists the 
existing broadcast sessions in your system along with the channels and sources in 
your system that each modulator currently carries.  
The Channels, Sources & Sessions Report lists each display channel (channel number) 
in the system. The report also displays information about the carriage of each channel 
(how the channel is transmitted on the DBDS). The report starts from each Source in 
your system and ends with each QAM modulator in your system. 
Generating this report helps you to verify that these sessions are successfully rebuilt 
after QAM 2.4 is downloaded to the modulator. 
Note: You can also use the DNCS Session List to determine the existing broadcast 
sessions in your system.  
Important! Refer to the DNCS Report Writer Version 3.5 User's Guide or the DNCS 
Online Help
 for your system for further assistance.
