1 Module and I/O Interface
Overview
The IPZ6800+ converts ISDB-T Broadcast Transport (204 byte) streams to or from DVB format
(188 byte). In addition, it encapsulates this 188 byte DVB stream for transport over an IP
Network.
The IPZ6800+ extracts single or multi program transport streams from signals received from
ASI or IP inputs. It can take in ASI input (as a Broadcast Transport stream (BTS) which is an
MPEG-2 compliant transport stream using 204-byte packets at a fixed rate of 32.507937
Mbps) and convert to IP. Or it can take in IP input and convert to ASI.
The IPZ6800+ Compressed BTS over IP Video Gateway performs the following functions.
Encapsulates ASI into Gigabit Ethernet.

De-encapsulates ASI from Gigabit Ethernet.
Transmit Mode
In transmission mode, the IPZ6800+ maps ASI into IP packets and applies Forward Error
Correction (FEC) to ensure the highest possible level of quality in network throughput.
Receive Mode
In receive mode, the IPZ6800+ receives IP and uses Forward Error Correction (FEC) as
needed, to reconstruct the original ASI stream.
The IPZ6800+ provides a card edge control for basic Ethernet IP address provisioning.
Thereafter the provisioning process may be completed using either Navigator or Navigator
provisioned with the board’s IP address.

Service on page 30.
Software Communication and Control Issues
Navigator Fails to Communicate with Installed Modules

Ensure you have specified the proper module slot.
See your 6800+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about
slot identification.

28 Appendix A
Communication and Troubleshooting
Verify whether there is an ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH module installed in the frame.

FR6802+ frames only useICE6800+ modules to communicate with CCS software
and hardware.
FR6802+QXF and FR6822+ frames use ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH modules to
communicate with CCS software and hardware.
Remove any legacy 6800 series product that is in the frame.
CCS software cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products, even though
these modules may operate with card-edge controls in an FR6802+ or FR6822+ frame.
Legacy 6800 products do not have the “+” symbol on their extractor handles.
Check for pressed pins on the back module by following this procedure:
Unplug the front module.
Unscrew and remove the back module.
Inspect the 20- or 30-pin spring connector at the bottom of the back module and
verify that the connector does not have any slightly bent or pressed pins.
Carefully reposition any bent pins. If this is not possible, contact Customer Support.
Figure A-1 Back Module to Front Module Connector
Navigator Does Not Find All Modules in Frame

1 Remove any legacy 6800 series products.
2 Plug your modules in before starting the discovery.
3 Start your discovery after the frame and all modules have fully powered up.
Refresh the CCS software and ensure that the installed modules are fully powered up first
before discovery.
CCS Software Application Not Responding

Close any CCS software that is already launched.
Navigator Cannot Control a Module Showing in the Control Window

Set the module’s Local/Remote jumper to Remote.
Ensure the module name in the Control window matches the module type in the frame.
Product Code Variable 29
Document Type Variable
Gently push the module into its slot in the frame to ensure it is seated properly and
powered up.
Verify that the Control window indicates the device is ready.
CCS Software Application Does Not Communicate with Module

Ensure you have installed the correct cables between the PC and the frame:
A null modem serial cable must be used between a PC and an FR6802+ frame (not
a straight-through cable). At minimum, this requires that pins 2 and 3 are crossed,
but pin 5 (ground) is straight-through to pin 5.
A USB cable must be used between a PC and an FR6802+QXF frame.
Verify whether there is an ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH module installed in the frame.

CCS Software control is disabled if anICE6800+ or 6800+ETH control module is
installed in the frame.
Set the Frame ID DIP switch settings correctly (the Frame ID DIP switch is located at
the rear of the frame.)
If only one frame is connected, set the DIP switch to 00.
If multiple frames are used in a daisy-chain, set the DIP switch numbers
consecutively to the following:
00 (frame 1)
01 (frame 2)
10 (frame 3
11 (frame 4)
See your Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about frame ID
switch settings.
Check that the correct COM port is configured in CCS Software and that another
application is not using that COM port.
Hardware Communication and Control Issues
Frames Fail to Communicate with the PC after a Power Failure

1 Wait four minutes for the frames to recover from the power failure.
2 Close the CCS software, and then restart the PC.
3 Restart the software application.
Module Does Not Seem to Work

1 Ensure the correct frame is powered up.
2 Verify that all appropriate rear connections are secure.
3 Gently push the module into its slot in the frame to ensure it is seated properly.
4 Ensure the back module does not have bent pins by following this procedure:

30 Appendix A
Communication and Troubleshooting
a Unplug the front module.

b Unscrew and remove the back module
c Carefully reposition any bent pins. If this is not possible, contact Customer Support.
Note: Pressed pins are ok and will not affect the functionality.
