carefully check before running.
2.5 Grounding Requirement
 All function modules‟ good grounding is the basis of reliability and stability of devices.
Also, they are the most important guarantee of lightning arresting and interference rejection.
Therefore, the system must follow this rule.
 Grounding conductor must adopt copper conductor in order to reduce high frequency
impedance, and the grounding wire must be as thick and short as possible.
 Users should make sure the 2 ends of grounding wire well electric conducted and be
antirust.
 It is prohibited to use any other device as part of grounding electric circuit
 The area of the conduction between grounding wire and device‟s frame should be no
less than 25 ㎡.

Chapter 4 WEB NMS operation
User not only can use front buttons for setting configuration, but also can control and set the
configuration in computer by connecting the device to web NMS Port. User should ensure that the
computer‟s IP address is different from the B-QAM-HDMI-IP-4CH‟s IP address; otherwise, it would
cause IP conflict.
4.1 login
The default IP of this device is 192.168.0.136. We can modify the IP through the front panel.
Connect the pc and the device with net cable, and use ping command to confirm they are on the
same network segment.
I.G. the PC IP address is 192.168.99.252, we then change the device IP to 192.168.99.xxx (xxx can
be 0 to 255 except 252 to avoid IP conflict).
Use web browser to connect the device with PC by inputting the Encoder & Modulator‟s IP address
in the browser‟s address bar and press Enter.
It will display the Login interface as Figure-1. Input the Username and Password (Both the default
Username and Password are “admin”.) and then click “LOGIN” to start the device setting.

Chapter 5 Operation of Closed Caption (CC)
Closed Caption, hereinafter referred to as the CC.
CC is from CVBS source output from IRD or STB etc. Connecting the CVBS cable to the CC port at
the rear panel (as shown in below image), CC can be mixed with A/V inputs to generate programs
with CC.

Chapter 6 Low Delay Setting
B-QAM-HDMI-IP-4CH can achieve a signal low delay from encoding to STB decoding side. User
can enable the low delay function in the web-server NMS interface as shown below:
Click „Input 1‟ or „Input 2‟ to sent a low delay mode for each program:
There are 3 low delay modes:
1. Normal: to disable the low delay function.
2. Mode 1/Mode 2: to activate the low delay function.
The delay duration is based on the different combination of Video Format, Video Bit-rate, Low
delay Mode and the Resolution of signal source, which combine together to have a comprehensive
impact on the delay. Please refer to the below table for reference.
NOTE: The delay duration will also be impacted as the decoding performance of the STB side
change. Users need to apply a well-performed STB or other decoding terminals to achieve a low
delay.
Low delay: Normal,
Mode 1, Mode 2
optional

Chapter 7 Troubleshooting
Prevention Measure
 Installing the device at the place in which environment temperature between 0 to
45 °C
 Making sure good ventilation for the heat-sink on the rear panel and other heat-sink
bores if necessary
 Checking the input AC within the power supply working range and the connection is
correct before switching on device
 Checking the RF output level varies within tolerant range if it is necessary
 Checking all signal cables have been properly connected
 Frequently switching on/off device is prohibited; the interval between every switching
on/off must greater than 10 seconds.
Conditions need to unplug power cord
 Power cord or socket damaged.
 Any liquid flowed into device.
 Any stuff causes circuit short
 Device in damp environment
 Device was suffered from physical damage
 Longtime idle.
 After switching on and restoring to factory setting, device still cannot work properly.
 Maintenance needed
