1 safety regulations and notes
• The devices meet the EU directives 2011/65/EU, 2014/30/EU and
2014/35/EU.
• This device is subject to the provisions of protection class I. Operate the
device only to mains sockets with protective conductor connection!
• If the power cords need to be replaced, only use OEM power cords.
• The standards EN/DIN EN 50083 resp. IEC/EN/DIN EN 60728 must be
observed, especially concerning equipotential bonding and earthing.
• Observe the relevant country-specific standards, regulations and guidelines
on the installation and operation of antenna systems.
• Before starting installation or service work disconnect the receiving system
from mains.
• Do not perform installation and service work during thunderstorms.
• Assembly, installation and servicing must be carried out by an authorised
electrician.
• Caution! Dangerous voltage! For a complete disconnection from the mains,
both mains plugs must be pulled out of the mains sockets. Ensure that the
mains plugs can be pulled out without difficulties.
• The head-end station should only be installed in a room where the permis-
sible ambient temperature range (0 °C … +50 °C ) can be maintained, even
during fluctuations in climatic conditions.
• To avoid too strong interacted heating of the head-end stations it is not
admissible to mount them one upon the other without using thermic precau-
tions (e.g. permanently air recirculation, ventilation etc.).
• If additional fans are to be used to circulate the air, ensure that the system
will be shut down (disconnected from mains) should any one of the fans fail.
• Install the head-end station
- in a dry, dust-free environment, in such a manner that it is protected from
moisture, fumes, splashing water and dampness
- where it is protected from direct exposure to sunlight
- on a vibration-free wall or floor construction
- not within the immediate vicinity of heat sources
• In case of the formation of condensation wait until the system is completely
dried.
• Ensure that the head-end station is adequately ventilated.
• Do not cover the ventilation openings!
• Do not install the head end in cabinets or recesses which are not ventilated.
• Do not place any vessels containing liquids on the head-end station.
- 4 - STIM 1916 CT
• Do not place anything on the head-end station which could initiate fires
(e.g. candles).
• Due to the risk of fires caused by lightning strikes, we recommend that
all mechanical parts (e.g. distributor, equipotential bonding rail, etc.) be
mounted on a non-combustible base. Wood panelling, wooden beams,
plastic covered panels and plastic panels are all examples of combustible
bases.
• Avoid short circuits!
• To ensure electromagnetic compatibility, make sure all connections are tight
and that the covers are screwed on securely.
• No liability is accepted for damage caused by faulty connections or inap-
propriate handling of the device.
• The firmware contains components which are licensed as Open Source
software. The components to which this relates and the respective license
terms can be called up via menu Help/Licences.
This parts of software source code can be provided at cost price on CD
upon request. The licensee is granted a non-exclusive right of use for the
Open Source Software by the respective right holders used; the conditions
stipulated by the respective valid license terms apply. The license terms of
this license only apply to the components which are not listed as Open
Source software.
In relation to the licensor the regulations on liability and warranty in these
license terms apply for the whole software. The liability and warranty regu-
lations of the Open Source licenses only apply in relation to the respective
right holders.
• Test the firmware versions of the device and update them if necessary. The
current firmware version can be found at "www.mygss.eu".
Take action to prevent static discharge when working on the device!
Electronic devices should never be disposed of in the household rubbish. In accordance
with directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and the European Council from
January 27, 2003 which addresses old electronic and electrical devices, such devices
must be disposed of at a designated collection facility. At the end of its service life,
please take your device to one of these public collection facilities for proper disposal.

2.4 desCri P ti on
The head-end station converts 16 MPTS streams and up to 128 SPTS streams
(max. over all input data rate 900 Mbit/s)
into 16 multiplexes and outputs
them as 16 QAM or 16 COFDM modulated transponders.

The station is equipped with one LAN input, one RF output and one test output
(–25 dB).

The configuration of the station is to be done via an HTML user interface via a
PC and a standard HTML browser connected to the configuration input
(Con-
trol)
.
- 8 - STIM 1916 CT
The two configuration inputs (Control) are connected via an internal switch.
Several stations can thus be cascaded for configuration.
—> The two Control connectors must not be connected to an external
switch at the same time (looping).
GSS
OpenVPN
Server
If the Control input is connected to
the Internet, after the initial setup,
you can get worldwide access to the
station via an OpenVPN connection
– by PC, tablet or smart phone with
Internet access.
—> When using mobile terminals – dependent on your mobile contract
– additional connection costs / data transfer costs may also be
incurred here.
16 LEDs provide an indication of the status of the 16 output lines based on
their colour and indicate if the respective modulator is switched on (LED illumi-
nates) or off. The LEDs are blinking red/green during data overflow.
The station is powered by two independent power supplies (redundancy). The
power supplies can be replaced individually during operation. If one power
supply unit fails, a warning signal sounds.
If the control input has connection to the Internet, the device can send a warn-
ing e-mail when a signal, power supply or one of the fans fails.

3.2 instal l i ng t h e d eviCe
– The device should only be installed in a room where the permissible ambi-
ent temperature range (0 °C … +50 °C ) can be maintained, even during
fluctuations in climatic conditions.
• Attach four cage nuts 26 at the installation site.
We recommend the use of lateral slide rails/component carriers in order to
relieve the front panel.
