Implemented CRs 
This section provides a description of the CRs implemented in GQAM 4.0.6. 
 
GQAMs No Longer Display Stale Alarms in SDV Application 
Previously, with the GQAM in a Switched Digital Video application, alarms were 
being held after the session was no longer active, possibly leading to false alarms 
and memory problems. CR 60608 corrected this issue. 
 
Muted Output Channels No Longer Unmute During Reboot 
Previously, muted output channels could unmute during the reboot period of a soft 
reset. The channel then muted after the application loaded. This behavior could have 
affected other GQAMs if they were set to the same frequency output. CR 60817-04 
corrected this issue. 
 
GQAMs No Longer Use NVM Values for Muted RF Frequencies 
Previously, GQAMs used the RF frequency values in non-volatile memory (NVM) 
when the GQAMs were rebooted. This could cause the GQAMs to momentarily 
activate a newly muted RF frequency when the GQAMs were rebooted. CR 60963-02 
prevents the GQAMs from using the NVM values for muted RF frequencies unless 
they are in boot mode 0 (zero). When the GQAMs are in boot modes 1 or 2, they now 
wait for one of the following actions before activating a newly muted RF frequency: 
 
DNCS provisioning 
 
Front-panel selection is made 
 
Craft port selection is issued 
 
GQAM Tracks PID Changes Regardless of PMT 
Previously, if a session was created with a program number of 0 (zero), the GQAM 
assumed it was a single-program transport stream and picked the first (or only) 
program in the incoming Program Access Table (PAT). If the program number in the 
PAT changed at a later time, the GQAM tracked the change only if the program map 
table (PMT) PID changed. This process could cause subscribers to experience "black 
screens." CR 62320-02 allows the GQAM to track the program number change 
regardless of whether the PMT PID changes.
