Quick-start:
This might vary because of different steps in development before this document was finished.

LCD OPERATING INSTRUCTIONs:
For setting configurations you can use the LCD control panel. The device will initialize to the main interface after power on, and press “Enter” into the main menu. The LCD turns off automatically after some seconds.

Some settings:

Source Press ◄ ► key to select HOMI/CVBS
Standard Press ◄ ► key to select DTV standard DVB-C/DVB-T
Freq(Frequency) Press ◄ ► key to move cursor and press ▼▲ to change numbers
Bandwidth Press ◄ ► key to select 6,7,8 MHz, apply to DVB-T ONLY
Sym. Rate Symbol Rate, set from 5.000 to 9.000 Msps, apply to DVB-C ONLY
MOD Set mode range 64QAM, 128QAM, 256QAM, apply to DVB-C ONLY
LCD Press ◄ ► key to edit
Service Name Shown service ID,Enter and set up to 15 alphanumeric characters
Audio Format Press ◄ ► key to select MPEG-1 Layer2/AAC
Network Enter to set the IP Address/Subnet Mask/ Default Gateway
Advanced Enter to set more TS setting
Theme Change the LCD background theme

Remark: CVBS source for devices with CVBS Input only.
Reset: Press ESC key 3 seconds to Restore factory settings.
The Menu with the LCD/Keypad is nearly self-explaining…
Audio encoding can be AAC or MPEG1L2 Stereo. If you change that, you’re receiving Decoder (TV or STB) need to be re-tuned to recognize the changes. Please set the PIDs and IDs accordingly to not conflict or harmonize with your existing COAX ­DVB-Channels.

Some recommendations:
DVB-C QAM settings:

BLANKOM HDM 901C T HDMI CVBS Encoder DVB C T Modulator - Application 3 256 is a good choice because of best data rates.

BLANKOM HDM 901C T HDMI CVBS Encoder DVB C T Modulator - Application 4Symbolrate SR should be 6750-6900 max.

BLANKOM HDM 901C T HDMI CVBS Encoder DVB C T Modulator - Application 5Frequency should be in the range of

the CELENEC Channel plan. See end of this document…

IN DVB-T mode:

BLANKOM HDM 901C T HDMI CVBS Encoder DVB C T Modulator - Application 6

FFT= 2000 or 8000 carrier, so best quality with 8K…, you can play with code-rates and so on if you have distortions detected in the receiver unit.
Guard Interval can be lowest 1/32 in Coax networks (not for over the air recommended).
Bandwidth 6, 7, or 8MHz…
Please note, that many TV sets/Receiver can only tune up to 862 MHz.

BLANKOM HDM 901C T HDMI CVBS Encoder DVB C T Modulator - Application 7Higher bitrates assure higher picture

qualities…
Half FPS can be used to change the FPS from source to re-encode… FHD output can be chosen to interlace mode or Automatic according to the input.
