Checking BFS QAM Frequencies
Complete these steps to verify all distributed BFS QAMs use the same frequency as
the primary BFS QAM.
1 On the DNCS Administrative Console, click the DNCS tab and then the
the primary BFS QAM.

Network Element Provisioning tab.
2 Click QAM. The QAM List window opens.
3 Select the row corresponding to the primary BFS QAM.

5 From the QAM List, verify that the frequency for each of your secondary BFS
QAMs matches the frequency you recorded in step 4.
6 When you have finished verifying frequencies, close the QAM List window.
7 Did the frequencies for every secondary BFS QAM match the frequency for the
7 Did the frequencies for every secondary BFS QAM match the frequency for the
primary BFS QAM?
If yes, continue to the next check, Verify Program Numbers (on page 58).
Important! The frequencies must be the same for all BFS QAMs, including
the local BFS QAM, to meet this requirement.
