 Chapter 2. Installation Guide
2.1 Acquisition Check
When users open the package of the device, it is necessary to check items according to packing list.
Normally it should include the following items:

DMB-24E Plus Remodulator 1pc

User Manual 1pc

ASI Cable 1pc

AC Power Cord 1pc

Please inform Hangzhou Digicast Technology Co., LTD if any item is missed.

2.2 Installation Preparation

When users install device, please follow to the below steps. The detailed installation will be described
at the rest part of this chapter. Users can also refer the rear panel chart during the installation.
The main content of this chapter 2 includes:
 Checking the items possible missed or damaged during the transportation
 Preparing relevant environment for installation
 Installing Encoder
 Connecting signal cables
 Connecting communication port (if it is necessary)
2.2.1 Device’s Installation Flow Chart Illustrated as following

window
Wall It can be covered with wallpaper, or brightness less paint.
Fire Protection Fire alarm system and extinguisher
Requiring device power, air-conditioning power and lighting power are
Power independent to each other. Device power requires AC power 240V
50Hz. Please carefully check before running.

2.2.3 Grounding Requirement

 All function modules’ good grounding designs are the basis of reliability and stability of devices.
Also, they are the most important guarantee of lightning arresting and interference rejection.
Therefore, the system must follow this rule.
 Coaxial cable’s outer conductor and isolation layer should keep proper electric conducting with
the metal housing of device.
 Grounding conductor must adopt copper conductor in order to reduce high frequency impedance,
and the grounding wire must be as thick and short as possible.
 Users should make sure the 2 ends of grounding wire well electric conducted and be antirust.
 It is prohibited to use any other device as part of grounding electric circuit
 The area of the conduction between grounding wire and device’s frame should be no less than
25mm2.

2.2.4 Frame Grounding

All the machine frames should be connected with protective copper strip. The grounding wire should
be as short as possible and avoid circling. The area of the conduction between grounding wire and
grounding strip should be no less than 25mm2.

2.2.5 Device Grounding

Connecting the device’s grounding rod to frame’s grounding pole with copper wire.

2.3 Wire’s Connection

The grounding wire conductive screw is located at the left end of rear panel, and the power switch,
fuse, power supply socket is located at the right end ,whose order goes like this, power switch is on
the left ,power supply socket is on the right and the fuse is just between them.
 Connecting Power Cord
User can insert one end into power supply socket, while insert the other end to AC power.
 Connecting Grounding Wire
When the device solely connects to protective ground, it should adopt independent way, say,
share the same ground with other devices. When the device adopts united way, the grounding
resistance should be smaller than 1Ω.

Caution:
Before connecting power cord to DMB-24E Plus Remodulator, user should set the
power switch to “OFF”.

 Chapter 5. FAQ and Solutions

5.1 No input and output signal

 Check the power connection

 Check the cable link among equipment

 Check whether the cable is working

 Check whether there’s signal input or not

5.2 SNMP/NMS Web management not work

 Check whether the IP address setting of both equipment and PC is correct or not

 Check whether the LAN cable is damaged or not

If the equipment is going to link to a switch, the LAN cable should be not linked with
equipment firstly, when the equipment is fully opened, then users can connect the LAN
cable to the equipment and open the SNMP to make settings.

Note: If the above solution can’t solve your problem or if other problem happens, please
contact Digicast directly.
