After you have set up all of your network elements, the next step in setting up a 
clear, secure, or PPV service is to add information to the DNCS database about the 
service source. In this case, a service source is the digital or analog signal that the 
PowerKEY DVB System uses to deliver a service to subscribers. 

For example, you can use the signal from Fox Sports World (FOXSW) to create 
different services, just as a processing plant might take a raw material like sugar and 
add other ingredients to it to create different kinds of soft drinks. To illustrate, you 
could define three different kinds of services from a single FOXSW signal: 

 

You could offer the FOXSW broadcast as a clear service to all subscribers. 

 

By encrypting the FOXSW broadcast, you could offer it as a secure, subscription-
based service only to subscribers who have paid extra for it. 

 

By encrypting it and setting it up as a PPV service, you could offer a portion of it, 
maybe a special sporting event, only to subscribers who have paid for the event. 

Important: Refer to Appendix A, Sources and Services Naming Conventions (on page 
191) before adding and defining service sources. 

 

Adding a service source takes approximately 5 minutes to complete. 

 

Adding a service source does not impact network performance. You can complete 
this procedure at any time. 

 

Complete the following steps to add a source for a service. 
1  From the DNCS Administrative Console, click the DNCS tab, and then click the 

System Provisioning tab.
