Power/Network LED:
Green: The ATSC-8 is powered on and connected to the network.

network. If the PC is connected directly to the ATSC-8, then the light will continue to blink
until the PC makes contact with the ATSC-8.
Red: Powered on, No Network Link.
Tuner LED:
Off: The tuner is not in use.
Green: The tuner is in use, tuned to a channel, and streaming data.
Flashing: The tuner is reserved for use, but is not actively streaming data.
Connection to the COM1000
Mounting:
The ATSC-8 is rack mountable and can be easily mounted in the same location as the
COM1000 system. It is recommended that at least 1RU of space be left between the ATSC-8,
the COM1000, and any other components so that each component will receive good air-flow
in the mounting location.
Connecting an antenna:
The ATSC-8 has 4 RF connectors for inputting antenna signals to the 4 dual tuners. Connect
the antenna input into a 2 GHz 4-way splitter with the outputs of the splitter going to each
of the RF connectors on the ATSC-8. In some locations an amplifier may be required between
the antenna and splitter for best reception.
Connecting the network:
The ATSC-8 has 4 Ethernet connectors for outputting the IP video streams. Connect each of
the 4 Ethernet connectors to an external 5-port Gigabit Switch. Connect the 5
th
port from
the 5-port gigabit switch to slot-1 GbE-1 card inserted in the COM1000.
NOTE: ATSC channels typically have much higher bitrates than DIRECTV HD channels with
data rates around 14-18 Mbits/s. In order to send 8 channels to the QAM6, the GbE-1 card
must be used to insure that the data is received. If only a couple of ATSC channels are
desired, then the 100Mb management port located on the QAM6 could be used to receive
these data streams.
