Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  General information Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 1 - 2 1.1  SAFETY SUGGESTIONS    Regardless  of  how  well  electrical  equipment  is  designed,  personnel  can  be  exposed  to  dangerous electrical shock  when  protective  covers are removed for maintenance or  other activities.  Therefore,  it  is incumbent on the user to see that all safety regulations are consistently observed and that each individual assigned to the equipment has a clear understanding of the first aid related to electrical shocks. (see next pages)   In addition these safety practices must be followed:     Do not attempt to adjust unprotected circuit controls or to dress leads with power on.   Always avoid placing parts of the body in series between ground and circuit points.   To avoid burns, do not touch heavily loaded or overheated components without precautions.   Remember that some semiconductor cases and solid-state circuits carry high voltages.   Do  not  assume  that  all  danger  of  electrical  shock  is  removed  when  the  power  is  off.  Charged capacitors can retain dangerous voltages for a long time after power is turned off. These capacitors should be discharged trough a suitable resistor before any circuit points are touched.    Don't  take  chances.  Be  fully  trained.  Screen  Service  Italia  equipment  should  be  operated  and maintained by fully qualified personnel.    Do  not  service  alone  and  do  not  perform  internal  adjustments  of  this  unit  unless  another  person capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.    Some components used in the construction of this equipment contain Beryllium Oxide (BeO). This substance  is  harmless  as  it  is,  but  becomes  highly  dangerous  if  it  is  ground  to  powder.  Special procedures of disposal must be observed in case of failure of these devices.                  NOTE:  This  section  is  not  intended  to  contain  a  complete  statement  of  all  safety precautions  which should be observed by personnel in using this electronic equipment or others. Screen Service shall not be responsible for injury or damage resulted from improper procedures or from using it by improperly trained or inexperienced personnel.
Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  General information Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 1 - 3 1.2  GENERAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS   When connecting the equipment to the power, please follow these important recommendations:     This product is intended to operate from a power source that will not apply more than 10% of the voltage  specified  on  the  rear  panel  between  the  supply  conductors  or  between  either  supply conductor  and  ground.  A  protective-ground  connection  by  way  of  the  grounding  conductor  in  the power cord is essential for safe operation.    This equipment is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired socket before connecting to the product input or output terminals.    Upon loss of the protective-ground connection, all accessible conductive parts (including parts that may appear to be insulating) can render an electric shock.    To avoid fire hazard, use only the fuse of correct type, voltage rating, and current rating. Refer fuse replacement to qualified service personnel.    To avoid explosion, do not operate this equipment in an explosive atmosphere.    To avoid personal injury, do not remove the product covers or panels. Do not operate the product without the covers and panels properly installed.   1.3  GOOD PRACTICES   In  maintaining  the  equipment  covered  in  this  manual,  please  keep  in  mind  the  following,  standard  good practices:    At  regular  intervals,  the  condition  of  the  equipment  and  the  correct  functioning  of  protective  and safety devices shall be checked by a skilled person approved by the appropriate authority for this duty. Functional checks shall be carried out on interlocking systems of doors, mechanical interlocks, isolating  switches,  earthing  switches,  parallel  resistances  and  protective  devices  against  over-voltages and over-currents. The above checks shall not be carried out after the protective and safety devices  have  operated  under  fault  conditions.  The  safety  devices  shall  not  be  altered  or disconnected  except  for  replacement,  nor  shall  the  safety  circuit  be  modified  without  specific approval of the appropriate authority in each case.    When connecting any instrument (wattmeter, spectrum  analyzer,  etc.)  to  a  high  frequency output, use the appropriate attenuator or dummy load to protect the final amplifiers and the instrument input.    When inserting or removing printed circuit boards (PCBs), cable connectors, or fuses, always turn off power to the affected portion of the equipment. After power is removed, allow sufficient time for the power supplies to bleed down before reinserting PCBs.    When troubleshooting,  remember  that  FETs  and  other metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS)  devices may appear defective because of leakage between traces or component leads on the printed circuit board. Clean the printed circuit board and recheck the MOS device before assuming it is defective.    When replacing MOS devices, follow standard practices to avoid damage caused by static charges and soldering.    When removing components from PCBs (particularly ICs), use care to avoid damaging PCB traces.
Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  General information Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 1 - 4 1.4  PROCEDURE FOR ESTABLISH THE ABSENCE OF VOLTAGE  Follow these simple steps for establish the absence of voltage:     Before starting work on the equipment, it shall be isolated from the mains supply. This disconnection shall always be checked by visual inspection. Further precautions shall be taken to ensure that the mains supp!y cannot be restored whilst work is being carried out. After the mains supply has been disconnected, all other lines such as control, interlocking and modulation lines shall be disconnected if they carry dangerous voltages. Moreover, the antenna or the antenna transmission line shall be disconnected  from  the  antenna  terminal  device  to  prevent  the  introduction  of  dangerous  voltages due  to  antenna  pick-up.  When  disconnection  of  the  antenna  or  antenna  transmission  line  is  not possible, other suitable precautions shall be taken, for example, earthing, when necessary at several places, to esablish absence of voltage. These earthing connections shall be very short compared with the wave-lenght.    Capacitors which are connected to a circuir isolated frcm its supply shall be discharged and have their  terminals  permanently short-circuited  and  the  casing  earthed  during  the  whole period  of  the work.    The  electrical  charge  retained  by  electrical  machinery  when  stopped  may,  in  certain  cases,  be sufficient to cause a severe shock. This shall be taken into account when making connections to an apparently  "dead"  machine.  Therefore  all  machinery  shall  be  discharged  and  earthed  using  an adequately insulated lead for this purpose. The discharge operation shall be repeated several times.    Before  any  maintenance  work  is  carried  out  on  automatic  or  remote  controlled  equipment,  the remote swithching circuits shall be made inoperative.      1.4.1  PROCEDURE FOR DETERMINATION OF THE ABSENCE OF VOLTAGE  After the equipment has been isolated according to the standard EN60215, the absence of voltage shall be determined at the work place. This may be done by the use of voltage indicators, measuring instruments, glow discharge lamps for indicating radio-frequency voltage or other suitable means.
Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  General information Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 1 - 5 1.5  FIRST AID IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK   If someone seems unable to free himself while receiving an electric shock, turn power off before rendering aid.  A  muscular  spasm  or  unconsciousness  can  make  a  victim  unable  to  free  himself  from  the  electrical power.    If power cannot be turned off immediately, very carefully loop a length of dry non-conducting material (such as a rope, insulating material, or clothing) around the victim and pull him free of the power. Carefully avoid touching him or his clothing until free of power.  1.5.1  EMERGENCY RESUSCITATION TECHNIQUE   Step 1  Check the victim for unresponsiveness. If there is no response, immediately call for medical assistance, and then return to the person.      Step 2   Position the person flat on their back. Kneel by their side and place one hand on the forehead and the other under the chin. Tilt the head back and lift the chin until teeth almost touch. Look and listen for breathing.      Step 3  If not breathing normally, pinch the nose and cover the mouth with yours. Give two full breaths. The person's chest will rise if you are giving enough air.      Step 4  Put the fingertips of your hand on the Adam's apple, slide them into the groove next to the windpipe. Feel for a pulse. If you can not feel a pulse or are unsure, move on to the next step.        DO NOT TOUCH VICTIM OR HIS CLOTHING BEFORE POWER IS DISCONNECTED OR YOU CAN ALSO BECOME A SHOCK VICTIM
Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  General information Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 1 - 6  Step 5  Position your hands in the center of the chest between the nipples. Place one hand on top of the other.       Step 6  Push down firmly two inches. Push on chest 15 times.         CONTINUE WITH TWO BREATHS AND 15 PUMPS UNTIL HELP ARRIVES.     1.5.2  TREATMENT FOR BURNS     Continue treat victim for electrical shock.   Check for points of entry and exit of current.    Cover burned surface with a clean dressing.    Remove all clothing from the injured area, but cut around any clothing that adheres to the skin and leave it in place. Keep the patient covered, except the injured part, since there is a tendency to chill.   Splint all fractures. (Violent muscle contractions caused by the electricity may result in fractures.)    Never permit burned surfaces to be in contact with each other, such as: areas between the fingers or toes, the ears and the side of the head, the undersurface of the arm and the chest wall, the folds of the groin, and similar places..    Transport to a medical facility

Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  Purpose and planning Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 2 - 3 2.1  GENERALITY Propagation is a critical issue in ATSC  / Mobile TV broadcasting. In  this  contest,  the  use  of  repeaters  for  digital  TV  broadcasting  becomes  a  key  issue  for  commercial terrestrial distribution of digital TV. In  addition,  8VSB  signal  characteristics  avert  well  known  adjacent  channel  interference  problems  of analogue TV broadcasting. This leads to the SFN network planning: a single frequency is used all over the coverage territory, increasing spectrum efficiency. Therefore,  in  digital  TV  SFN  netwotrks  iso-frequency  repeaters  are  needed.  An  On-channel  repeater  is, basically, a radiofrequency repeater that receiver and transmits using the same frequency. Traditional On-channel repeater use is limited by a hard design constraint: coupling between transmitter and receiver antenna limits the allowed maximum gain for the on-channel repeater, leading to a reduction of the coverage area: a traditional on-channel repeater installation is only possible if hard isolation conditions are complied. A  on-channel  repater,  with  coupling  echo  cancellation  system,  allows  operations  at  higher  power  levels under normal tower isolation conditions. 2.2  INTRODUCTION  SDT ARK-1 ECHO is a Multi-standard Television Transposer. Based on Software Defined technology, SDTX ECHO allows the definition of different operative modes on the same hardware platform. At the state of the art SDT ARK-1 ECHO has the following possible working modes:   Analog Television Heterodyne Transposer;   Digital Television Heterodyne Transposer;   Digital Television Heterodyne Transposer with echo canceller;  Re-broadcasting ATSC Modulator. Analog and Digital Television Heterodyne Transposers receive and re-transmit Analog or Digital TV signals allowing the software setting of input and output channels. Re-broadcasting  ATSC  Modulator  receives  and  de-modulates  ATSC  signals  and  re-modulates  them. Auxiliary inputs and outputs allow to import and export TS contents on ASI and GBE interfaces. The single software controller allows the switching between working modes and different settings for each operative mode using the same platform. A brief description of the main features and potentialities of each operative mode follows. 2.2.1  ANALOG/DIGITAL TELEVISION HETERODYNE TRANSPOSER  Heterodyne Transposer  with Digital  Filtering at Intermediate Frequency for Analog and  Digital  Television standards.

Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  Purpose and planning Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 2 - 15 2.6  FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  2.6.1  GENERAL  The ARK 1 receives on its inputs An RF  signal or four MPEG-2 Transport Stream in serial ASI format. The RF input signal is converted into a standard 36 MHz IF frequency by a fully agile down converter. This  signal  is  digitally  filtered,  elaborated,  precorrected  and  then  presented  at  997  MHz  to  the  channel converter.  The channel converter provides to generate the final frequency in a fully agile mode.  The LO with a very low phase noise is locked to the 146 MHz high stability reference.  Reference signal coming from GPS board allow precision offset   The switching power supply module generates the following voltages to feed the different circuits: +32 V,   + 24V.  2.6.2  RF AMPLIFICATION  The signal coming from the agile up converter goes to the RF amplifier section. The RF amplification is done by class A and AB stages.   Out of the final stage, the RF signal passes through a directional coupler. The directional coupler detects samples of direct and reflected power and passes this information to the check function

Remember  to  save  curves  changing  before  closing  the  connection  to  port  5000.  At  every working session open  Note:  the  operation  of  uploading  and  downloading  pre-correction  curves  moves  a  large amount of data from and to the device. The use of these tools over low badwidth, not stable or  high  distances  netwoks  could  cause  frequently  time-out  disconnections  and  it  is  not reccommended. 3.5.1  Module&Phase Click on MOD.

Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  Operations Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 3 - 52     This tool provides two grids for the drawing of:  Module of the filter’s curve.  Group Delay of the filter’s curve. The two curves are  used to calculate the linear pre-correction coefficients. The curves are drawn by the interpolation of 1024 points referring to the points inserted and using a linear or polynomial interpolation algorithm. Knob points can be added with a left-click of the mouse on the grid and deleted with a right-click, drag and move a point to change the curve. Each  coefficient  variation,  due  to  curves  change,  is  saved  in  the  FPGA  “runtime”  memory registers and dynamically changes the device’s output.  The tool is prevented to send an “overflowing” amount of data to the device: curve changes will be applied only when the mouse button is released.  In the module grid, the red curve is used to monitor the current module curve calculating and saving. The last saved coefficients are locally downloaded from the FPGA runtime memory registers in order to redraw the curve. Click two times the right mouse button on the grid to open the zoom menu. The “H” options are used to horizontally zoom (x01,x02,x04,x08,x16).  The “V” options are used to vertically zoom (x01,x02,x04). During the saving actions are created two nonlinear pre-correction files:   *.dlin  files:  files  containing  digital  coefficients  values  for  Digital-IF  linear  pre-correction curves.   *.alin files: files containing analog coefficients values for ATSC Re-modulator linear pre-correction curves.  The  following  buttons  allow  the  management  of  linear  pre-correction  files  and  the management of the connection to port 5000:  Save: used to save in the device memory the current curves setting. The previously saved file will be overwritten except in the evet that no files have been saved before; in this case a dedicated window appears in order to let the user name the new file.  Save  as:  used  to  save  in  the  device  memory  the  current  curves  setting.  The previously saved file will be overwritten with a new name. in the evet that no files have been saved before, a new file will be created.  Read file: used to reload the last saved file.  Export: used  to  download  pre-correction  files on  the  user  PC. A  browser  window allows the selection of the saving path.  Release:  release  the  connection  in  order  to  allow  others  remote  machines  to connect to port 5000 (refer to Connection to port 5000 paragraph).  Files are separately managed in analog and in digital AGC mode.       3.5.2  AM/PM Click  on  AM/PM  button  icon,  highlighted  in  the  nex  figure,  to  access  the  pre-correction window.

AM/AM and AM/PM curves are specific for each power range of each output channel. The two curves are used to calculate the AM/PM pre-correction coefficients. The curves are drawn by the interpolation of 1024 points referring to the points inserted and using a linear or polynomial interpolation algorithm. Knob points can be added with a left-click of the mouse on the grid and deleted with a right-click, drag and move a point to change the curve.

The pre-correction tool opens and keeps busy the connection to port 5000 till the connection releasing The connection to this port precludes the possibility of:   programming the device;   allowing more than one user, the very same one that is keeping busy the connection, to open the pre-correction tools. The Release button comes through these limits. It closes the connection to port 5000, close the Mod.Pha. / AM/PM window and opens the General window. Once clicked the Release buttons and before quitting the pre-correction tool, three options are provided:   Continue: continue without saving;   Save and Release: save and continue;   Cancel: cancel the request of releasing the connection.

Figure 17.  Channel filter & complex filter window  Use the Filter window to manage and monitor channel and complex filters.   To understand the behavior of the Echo’s Channel Filter, a brief explanation is needed. The Fold-back  mode  is  an  algorithm  that  makes  use  of  3  thresholds,  determined  by  the characteristics  of  the  system  (receiver  and  transmitter’s  antenna  front  and  back  gains),  to calculate  the  optimal  range  of  the  transmitter’s  output  RF  power  that  results  in  controlled echo level on the receiver side antenna. The so introduced thresholds are:  Threshold Fold Back Alarm: individuates  the  level  of  the  transmitter’s  output  RF power that determines an uncontrollable echo level on the receiver side antenna.  Threshold Fold Back Down: individuates the upper limit of the optimal range of the transmitter’s  output  RF  power.  When  the  “Module”  value  is  higher  than  this threshold, the controller decreases the output RF power.  Threshold Fold  Back Up:  individuates the  lower  limit  of  the  optimal range of  the transmitter’s output RF power. When the “Module” value is lower than this threshold, the controller increases the output RF power.
Screen Service  SDT ARK 1 ECHO  Operations Jan, 2012  v 1.ATSC_FCC  Page 3 - 57 It follows that: Thr. FB Alarm > Thr. FB Down > Thr. FB Up. The  “FPGA  Gain”  value  results  from  the  comparison  of  the  “Module”  value  with  the thresholds:  0: when “Module” is lower than FB Up.  1: when “Module is higher than FB Down.  2: when “Module” is comprised between FB Up and FB Down.

Use alarm masks to select how and which alarm have to be notified. Masks  are organized in columns. The sixteen columns represent sixteen destinations of each alarm condition:  GUI: the selected alarms status is notified on the Java alarm page icon.  LCD: the selected alarms status is notified on LCD display lighting the alarm button and listing the alarms in the Alarms menu (refer to Alarms Menu paragraph).  Event: the selected alarms status generate an alarm event that will be logged in the event memory (refer to Events paragraph).  R0…R3: the selected alarms switch on the corresponding relay.  T0…T7: the selected alarms generate the corresponding trap messages (refer to Network paragraph to set destination IP addresses).  RF: the selected alarms switch off the RF output. The RF mask is almost entirely fixed in order to avoid board damages or malfunctioning. In the Alarms window, when an alarm condition occurs, the relative alarm is red highlighted. The Total check box enables all alarms-to-masks associations. Remember to enable the RF Off alarms mask of ATSC alarms while working in Tx ATSC mode.

A  manager  is  a software  module  in  a  management  system  responsible  for  managing  the  device.  An agent  is  a  software  module  in  a  managed  device  responsible  for  maintaining  local management  information  and  delivering  that  information  to  a  manager  via  SNMP.  A management information exchange can be initiated by the manager (via polling) or by the agent (via trap). Interaction between a user of board management and the board management software takes place across a user interface. Such an interface is needed to provide users with a monitoring and controlling  tool in order to allow some parameters to be viewed or set locally. The operations that are supported in SNMP network management are the alteration and inspection of variables. Specifically, three general-purpose operations may be performed on scalar objects:   Get:  a  management  station  retrieves  a  scalar  object  value  from  a  managed station.   Set: a management station updates a scalar object value in a managed station.   Trap:  a  managed  station  sends  an  unsolicited  scalar  object  value  to  a management station. Management  information  accessible  via  SNMP  is  maintained  in  a  management information base (MIB) at each manager and agent node. On manager side, SDTX ECHO management system has been tested with MG-SOFT as MIB Browser; besides compatibility with any other MIB browser is assured. The following MIB libraries are required for the SNMP management of the equipment:   SCREENSERVICE-SCB-BROADCASTING-MIB.my;   echo_0_1.MY.  Compatibility tested and assured with SNMP version 1 and 2.

Use alarm masks to select how and which alarm have to be notified. Figure 36.  Configuring alarms  There are six families of alarm masks:  echo_AlarmJavaEnable: the selected alarms status is notified on the Java alarm page icon.  echo_AlarmFrontPanelEnable:  the  selected  alarms  status  is  notified  on  LCD display lighting the alarm button and listing the alarms in the Alarms menu (refer to Alarms Menu paragraph).  echo_AlarmEventsEnable:  the selected  alarms status  generate  an  alarm event that will be logged in the event memory (refer to Events paragraph).  echo_AlarmRelay: the selected alarms switch-on the corresponding relay.  echo_AlarmTrap: the selected alarms generate the corresponding trap message.  echo_AlarmRfEnable: the selected alarms switch off the RF output. The RF mask is almost entirely fixed in order to avoid board damages or malfunctioning. Each alarm mask is a 32 bits word and each alarm represents one bit (0: Off, 1: On). Set the decimal value corresponding to the mask you want to activate in the relatve leaf. The following table shows the bit-to-alarm association.

These events are communicated in SNMP messages known as traps. The following parameters should be set in order to correctly configure traps:   SNMP Agent Port: 162.   SNMP Agent Transport protocol: IP/UDP.   Variable o  OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.21678.200.13. o  Value(gauge): 32 Bit  3.19.1 Configuring traps Use  Java  (refer  to  Network and  Alarms  paragraphs  for  further  information)  or  SNMP  user interfaces to configure traps. The configuration of traps is performed through the setting of a trap alarm mask, by means of leaves  housed  in  the  echo_AlarmTrap  node  (refer  to  Configuring  alarms  paragraph),  and through  the  setting  of  the  destination  IP  Address  of  the  receiving  management  stations,  by means of leaves housed in the echo_Network node as shown in next figure.

The Automatic Frequency Control is highly recommended for transposers chains. The following figure illustrates an example of when the AFC might be used to stop the overwhelming increase of such errors.  Figure 39.  TROVA NOME  The Automatic Frequency Control in ARK1 devices is software defined. Most of the frequency drift errors could be avoided by means of a stable frequency reference, such  as  GPS,  but  since  it  is  not  always  available,  the  ARK1  AFC  makes  it  possible  to compensate frequency jitters owing to each previous transposer. Frequency compensation  of analog input signals is performed through a proprietary algorithm that, filtering the input video carrier, allows the control loop to extract frequency jitter information from the input RF phase deviation. The frequency error adjustment slows down within 3 Hz; it takes  about 2 minutes  to fulfil  the correction.   Frequency resolution: 1Hz. Maximum frequency compensation: 4,000,000 Hz. Frequency  compensation  of  digital  input  signals  is  carried  out  through  frequency  jitter information coming from STV0362 receiving the HP Transport Stream.   Frequency resolution: 1kHz.   Maximum frequency compensation: 83kHz. Due to the Symbol Rate error compensation of the frequency measure algorithm of STV, digital AFC can work properly only with 0ppm Symbol Rate errors in the input signal.
