ASII module has no adjustments. 10 Setup and Programming, continued Choose the SELECT PROGRAMS setting to allow the operator to pick which programs from the A and B inputs are to be included in the output multiplex. NOTE: At this point you may proceed through the remaining menus, below, before pressing the ENTER button to load the selected data OR you may press ENTER now and then come back to the rest of the menus. In any case, when the ENTER button is pressed, one of the following two actions will occur: A) If SELECT ALL PROGS has been selected, the MEQ1000 will now read PAT tables from the two input streams and discover which MPEG programs are defined. If you wish to view the MPEG program numbers of programs that were found, follow the procedure below: VIEWING MPEG PROGRAM NUMBERS In order to see the MPEG program numbers of incoming streams, the following procedure can be followed: 1) Press the ENTER button for 2 seconds to enter program mode. By continuing to hold in the ENTER button, the following display will be slowed down so that program numbers can be read as they scroll by. 3) A screen will be displayed that indicates: PMT PROG A xxxx or PMT PROG B xxxx. 4) The xxxx field will be a number that corresponds to the MPEG program number of a program found in the PMT table for the indicated (A or B) input. As the button is held, all entries for input A will scroll past and then entries for input B will scroll past. 5) Release button and if necessary repeat steps 1 - 4. B) If SELECT PROGRAMS was chosen, the unit will read the PAT tables from both inputs and then display: MPEG PROG XXXXX: (XXXXX is a number from 00001 to 65535) on the top line of the display. Using the right and left arrow keys, you can scroll through all 65535 possible program numbers. Don't be alarmed by the large number of possibilities because if the arrow key is held down, the scrolling will speed up so all 65535 possible numbers can be scanned in a short time - any time an entry is found at a given program number, the scrolling will slow down to give the operator time to see it and stop scrolling, if desired. Usually, all programs are known to be numbered between 01 and 20. For each MPEG program number, displayed on the top line, the bottom line, on the right, will indicate A, B, AB, or nothing. This will indicate that the program number on the top line was found in input A or B or AB for both or not in either one if blank. To select programs to be included in the output multiplex, use the up and down arrow keys to select NOT SELECTED, INPUT A, INPUT B, or INPUT A+B. If NOT SELECTED is used, then this program number will not be present in the output and any programs with this program number that are present in the A or B inputs will be filtered out. If INPUT A is selected, the A input program only is used. This section provides additional details regarding the selectable items shown in the `adjust' mode on the Software Flow Chart on page 8. SETUP: MEQ1000 UNIT ID: Select the desired unit identification number when connecting the 'RS232 IN' connector to a PC or modem for remote control using 'Drake Remote Control Software'. If zero (0) is selected, the PC will ignore the unit.
