QAM output channels have a destination port of QamChannel *16 + subchannel number.
The top screen (Figure 60) shows the status of each channel. The RF groups are labeled Qam1-
Qam12. Each RF channel can have up to 8 subchannels or programs. If a subchannel is active,
its bit rate will be shown. Bitrates are static snapshots.
Figure 61 – QAM6 Command Screen (bottom portion)
The bottom screen controls the RF output configuration and provides SW upgrade capability. 12
RF output channels are defined in 3 groups of 4. Each group of 4 is in a fixed channel sequence
starting with the base channel. Each group’s base channel can be set according to the North
American Cable Television Frequency plan. Each RF channel can be individually turned on or
off. Each channel must be frequency adjacent and within the same band per the North American
Cable Television Frequency Plan (See EIA standard EIA-542B or
http://www.jneuhaus.com/fccindex/cablech.html).
QAM6 boards will only permit six QAM carriers to be active at a time as shipped from the
factory. To increase the number of QAM carriers, additional SWQAM2 licenses must be
purchased from Technicolor and downloaded to the QAM6. Each license enables 2 more QAM
carriers per board up to a total of 12 carriers.
