4.4 Frequency Tagging
General
Rules
Rules
Frequency Tagging is a mechanism that is used to ensure that an IRD is locked to desired
carrier settings. Sometimes, due to minor offsets in LNB and frequency errors, tuning may
be off by a couple of MHz. To prevent locking to some other near by (adjacent) carrier while
looking for an intended carrier, the acquired carrier contains "frequency tags." These tags
are inserted in

control stream at the uplink to identify the intended carrier frequency.
Traditionally, the tags have been sent at a rate of every 100 or 125 ms.
The
iPump 562
supports both single and multiple tags. A carrier settings with "Tag Site"
number, specifies which of the possible tags the IRD need to use. The
iPump 562
allows for
Tag Site designations from 0 to 15, inclusive. The tag '15' is reserved for an exception. If the
Carrier Setting shows Tag Site '15', the Carrier Tags are not required.

the first available program stream. Note that this number points to the PID
