Chapter 2
Introduction
The Harmonic DiviCom Electra 1000 Multichannel Encoder provides multichannel
standard definition MPEG-2 encoding and DiviTrackIP statistical multiplexing. It accepts up
to four analog composite or serial digital standard definition video inputs, and up to ten
analog or digital audio inputs. The encoder operates within an IP environment, allowing
flexible network architectures.
This chapter describes:
2.1
The environment in which you can operate the DiviCom Electra 1000
General features
Operating Environment
The encoder operates under the control of NMX Digital Service Manager. NMX manages
multiple DiviCom Electra 1000 encoders and other devices. NMX provides full configuration
of the DiviCom Electra 1000 platform, ports, services, and PSI, as well as alarm management.
You configure a few initial network settings from the front panel of the encoder. The encoder
operates within an IP environment; therefore, encoders and multiplexers do not need to be in
the same physical location. Harmonic recommends discussing your planned network
architecture with a Harmonic representative before implementation.

DiviTrackIP Support
DiviTrackIP Support
DiviTrackIP statistical multiplexing provides high-performance video compression when
multiple channels share a specified bandwidth. The system maintains the overall pool
bandwidth at a constant bit rate while allocating to individual channels the optimum number
of bits on a frame-by-frame basis, driven by picture complexity information from the
LookAhead analysis. By assigning priorities, you can specify channels that must maintain a
high quality when stress on the system increases.
NOTE: DiviTrackIP is not supported on BNG multiplexers.
The DiviCom Electra 1000 encoder works in conjunction with NMX and a ProStream 1000
to support DiviTrackIP. The ProStream 1000 analyzes the complexity of all incoming video
streams and sends messages to the encoders through the IP network. All streams from an
DiviCom Electra 1000 encoder must be sent to the same ProStream 1000.
Table 2-4 provides DiviTrack IP pool specifications. See the NMX help for information about
configuring DiviTrackIP pools.

2.10.5
IP Output Port
One 100/1000 Base-T Ethernet port provides two redundant IP output channels. The two RJ45 connectors are labeled GbE PRI and BKUP.
The IP output port supports manual redundancy. The port also supports hot/warm standalone
redundancy: when the primary IP data channel detects a cable disconnection, the primary
channel stops outputting, and the backup channel takes over.
In manual redundancy, you can enable one channel or both channels. If you enable one
channel, you must manually switch to the other channel after a service-affecting alarm. If you
enable both channels, the encoder outputs the same data from both channels.
See 3.5.4 Connecting the IP Output Cables on page 26 for cabling instructions. Set the IP address
and other network information for the IP output ports using NMX.

The airflow through the encoder is critical for maintaining the proper temperature range. Fans
in the chassis draw air in through the front bezel and through the encoder. The airflow
ventilates out the right side (front view).

CAUTION: Do not obstruct the airflow of the encoder. Severe equipment damage can result when the
encoder cannot properly exhaust the airflow.

2. Position the rack rails so the shelves are toward the inside of the rack.
3. Using the #10 screws provided with the encoder, screw the mounts into the speed nuts
from the inside of the rack using the rack-mount holes that line up with the holes on the
rack posts.
Figure 3-2 illustrates attaching the rails.

Chapter 3 Installation
CAUTION: Make sure to install the rack rails with the shelf at the top of the rail. If you install the rail
upside down, the rail blocks the encoder air vents, which can result in overheating the encoder.

NOTE: On PCs running Windows NT 4.0 with Internet Explorer 6.0, do not leave Configuration Manager
open for extended periods of time. When Internet Explorer is left open and connected to the Configuration
Manager URL, the web page continuously refreshes the alarm status display for the device, causing
Internet Explorer to slowly increase its memory usage on the client PC. While this increase in memory
usage does not affect the encoder, Harmonic does not recommend that Configuration Manager be open
for long periods of time because it can affect other processes on the control PC.

NOTE: Changing from non-single-channel mode to single-channel mode provisions the transport bit
rate automatically.
When you change between single-channel and non-single-channel modes, the encoder
automatically provisions the bit rate to the closest available bit rate. In some cases, this means
the bit rate is lower because provisioning does not increase the bit rate defined for the port.
Therefore, changing the coding mode from non-single-channel mode to any of the four
highest bit rates causes the encoder to provision the bit rate to 192 Kbps.
In the case of the three lowest bit rates, when you change from single-channel to non-singlechannel mode, because the bit rate is the lowest available, the encoder provisions to the next
highest available bit rate, 64 Kbps. If you set the bit rate to 80 Kbps and then change the
coding mode to non-single-channel, the encoder provisions the bit rate to 64 Kbps.

Appendix F
DiviCom FLEX Decoding Module
F.1 Introduction
The DiviCom FLEX decoding module delivers video decoding capability and is integrated into
either the Electra or Ion encoder chassis. The FLEX decoding module (hereafter refer to as
the FLEX module) is a decoding module only (see Figure F-1). A single FLEX module is able
to decode up to two (2) incoming channels, and an appropriately configured encoder can
deliver up to four (4) channels in a single rack-unit (1-RU). The FLEX module decodes MPEG2 in both standard definition (SD) or high definition (HD) formats, thereby eliminating the
dependency on ingress formats. The FLEX module is a unique gateway designed with the
flexibility to deliver any type of pre-compressed video to any Electra 1000, 5000, 5400,
7000 or Ion AVC SD/HD encoder. The FLEX module supports both ASI and IP inputs, the
most efficient interfaces used to route and transport pre-compressed video feeds.
The FLEX module is controlled and configured with the NMX Digital Service Manager
application or the Configuration Manager, the SAG Web-based GUI. The FLEX module also
accepts decoded ATSC 8VSB signals from the DiviCom RF Input Card ( see DiviCom RF Input
Card on page 63.). The FLEX module does not descramble or reconstruct all audio and
ancillary data services (such as VBI) on the output port.
NOTE: . The encoder chassis configuration must include an input module for IP. The same GbE Pro card
are used for both ProStream 1000 muxes and Electra encoders.

Before installing the Flex module, you may need to upgrade the software version on the
encoder. Contact Harmonic Customer Support to find out which software version you need to
install the additional module.
There is also a CPC limitation of requiring that requires version 1.05.
NOTE: Before installing the FLEX module make sure that the encoder has the appropriate software
version installed before installing the module using either NMX or SAG.
NOTE: The FLEX module must be installed in slot 4 (and an optional, second module in slot 5) of the
encoder.
You need a Phillips screwdriver to install the Flex module.
To install the Flex module:
1. Turn off the encoder in which you are installing the module.
2. Remove the protective covers from slots 1 through 5 where you are going to install the
module (by loosening the two screws with the Phillips screwdriver).
Save the cover for future use.
3. While wearing an ESD wrist strap, unpack the module from its antistatic protective
packing material.
CAUTION: Unpack and handle the module away from electric motors, transformers, and other similar
machinery.
4. Slide the module onto the encoder by lining up the edges of the module with the slots in
the chassis.
Make sure that the FLEX module goes into the encoder smoothly without binding or
scraping other modules. The modules should slide easily until you feel the module
engage the internal connector, and the module is flush with the back of the encoder. Do
not force the module.
5. Tighten the two screws with the screwdriver.
NOTE: Refer to the encoder guide or online help for information about accommodating the new Flex
module in the encoders configuration.

Appendix G
DiviCom RF Input Card
This appendix contains specifications for the DiviCom RF Input Card.
The RF Input Card is a four channel ATSC 8VSB receiver. It receives four independent ATSC
8VSB signals on its inputs and outputs four MPEG-2 Transport Streams over the chassis
internal bus to one or more FLEX decoding modules. The RF Input Card does not support
analog demodulation.
The RF Input Card can be managed by either NMX or SAG. Figure G-1 on page 63shows a
diagram of the rear panel.
