For detailed staging procedures, refer to the Explorer Digital Home Communications
Terminal Staging Guide, part number 734375.
ModifyDhctConfiguration
The ModifyDhctConfiguration process enables all PowerKEY configuration
parameters of the DHCT or, in the case of a field return, reauthorizes it for default
services. The first time you stage a DHCT and place it into an active inventory status,
the ModifyDhctConfiguration transaction is sent to the DNCS.
The first time you stage a DHCT, when the DNCS receives a request to perform the
The first time you stage a DHCT, when the DNCS receives a request to perform the
ModifyDhctConfiguration transaction, it transmits at least 33 EMMs twice on the out-
of-band QPSK and DSG CMTS Forward Data Channel to the DHCTs. Thereafter,
every time the ModifyDhctConfiguration transaction is initiated, only the Service
Authorization EMMs (typically four EMMs) will be transmitted. EMMs are
transmitted regardless of the Admin Status of the DHCT.

You should wait 10 minutes after scanning the DHCTs into the billing system before
booting the DHCTs or the conditional access data may not be received.

Note: If the DHCT did not receive the initial ModifyDhctConfiguration transaction,
you cannot send an instant hit to the DHCT. The DhctInstantHit transaction,
sometimes called an “instant hit,” initiates the transmission of all existing EMMs to
the DHCTs.
