Cisco DNCS System Release 2.8.1 3.8.1 4.3.1 ユーザーガイド

Important: This procedure can be used for all systems except those that use the RCS option. If your system
uses the RCS option, follow a different procedure to set up a BFS QAM modulator for an RCS. A different
procedure is required because the RCS option requires system information (SI) to be delivered out-of-band by a
QPSK modulator. Other systems typically deliver SI out-of-band and inband by the BFS QAM modulator. See 

Be sure to allow yourself adequate time to complete this procedure. To add a BFS QAM modulator to the DNCS,
you must complete the following tasks in order. 

1.

.

2.

3.

.

Before adding a BFS QAM modulator, make sure that you have first added one of the following elements to the
DNCS:





Systems with Direct ASI: First 

Important: Before you begin, you must have your network map.

You must also have the following information:



IP address for the QAM modulator (from your system administrator)



Subnet mask for the QAM modulator (from your system administrator)



MAC address for the QAM modulator (



If connecting to a BFS BIG, obtain the following information: 



Output transport stream ID used by the BFS BIG



Slot number where the MSYNC control card is installed on the corresponding BFS BIG

(usually, slot 3)



Port number on the MSYNC control card or SWIF transmit card that is connected to this QAM

modulator (usually, port 1)



If connecting directly to the ASI card on the DNCS, the output transport stream ID used by the DNCS

Note: All of this information should be recorded on your network map. However, if it is not, contact your system
administrator to obtain the information.
