Setting is by using the scroll button or by inputting the fi gures.
For channels with very low symbol rates it can take 1-4 minutes before the channel
can be received.

The power consumption of the combination of UFO 395 with UFZ 394 and
two Alphacrypt CA modules is as follows:

This menu is active only if the same slot for decrypting the channel is selected
on Q1, Q2, Q3 or Q4 (multiple decryption using a CAM).
Conditional Access Modules (CAM) manage a list of channels to be decrypted
(in the form of entries called CA-PMTs). Where a CAM is required to decrypt
several channels, the list can be transferred in either of two different forms.
However not all CAMs support both types of transfer. The two types are called
"Only-Add-Add (oaa)" and "First-More-More-Last (fmml)" in the UFO
controller and the USW 30 software.
Therefore it is necessary to set the type of transfer to be used separately for
each CAM.
PMT change "normal" and "optimised":
***
Every now and again certain management information that is required for decrypting
a channel (PMT) may change. This changed information must be communicated
to the CAM. One procedure for doing this, which here we call "normal", consists of
sending the complete channel list with the updated management information afresh
to the CAM. This succeeds with any CAM, but can lead to short-term loss of picture
for all the channels to be decrypted.
Some CAMs support the transfer of the changed management information for
each individual channel (list update), without affecting the other channels that
require decryption ("optimised" procedure). If the option is activated inadvertently
or by mistake it can however lead to loss of picture for one or all the channels
to be decrypted for an indefi nite period of time (e.g. until the channel unit is next
restarted).
