ASI Input

Introduction

It is possible to fetch EIT events directly from a transport stream sent sent to the Dektec ASI card. A Dektec card with a ASI input port is required for that: e.g. DTA-2144B.

Supported Input Cards

The following Dektec Models are supported:
  1. DTA-2145
  2. DTA-2144B
  3. DTA-105 (Legacy)

Settings

To define general settings for the ASI Input Data source select menu "Server -> Settings -> EIT -> ASI":


To define settings separately for each service right click on the service and select "Edit Service -> EIT source -> ASI input Data Source":



The parameters are:
  • ASI input card model - a Dektec card that supports ASI-input feature
  • Input card number (0-..) - if there are several similar cards installed, it is possible to define which exactly card to use
  • Input card port (1-..) - if there are several ports on the card, it is possible to define which port to use
  • Transport Stream ID - The ID of the transport stream that should be used
  • Original Network ID - The ID of the original network that should be used
  • Service ID - The ID of the service from the transport stream to use
  • Port (1-..) - The port number used for transport stream transmission
  • Update periodically - this flag defines if events should be fetched periodically
  • How often to update (seconds) - the period of the update measured in seconds
  • Update day - the day of a week to fetch events
  • Updae time - the time of a day to fetch events
