MEQ1000A - This illustration shows the rear of the MEQ1000A.
The ASI connectors are type BNC f emale.
The ASI input is used to input SCTE-18 data in ASI format f or
use with DTAs and in EAS dais y-chaining applic ations.
R1; RF OUT PUT – This is the high level (61 dBmV), 54 to 1002 MHz, output from the
MEQ1000A upconverter s ection.
R2; Contact Closure Terminal - Connect these to EAS Receiver Contact Closur e
cables to allow the triggering of EAS activation.
R3; ASI Input - This is f or receiving EAS and DTA data from a Drake EH24, EH24 A,
EH244, EH244-IP or MEQ1000A.
R4; Input Module Slot A.
R5; Input Module Slot B.
R6; ASI Output - This output delivers the same multi-program transport stream in ASI as
is sent to the QAM modulator. W hen the DTA/EAS mode is Enabled, this ASI output no
longer outputs the same data as the QAM output; it now acts as an ASI Loop, outputting
DTA/EAS data only.
R7; RS232 in - Connection to a PC or modem for use with remote control / monitoring
program or f or firmware update download.
R8; RS232 OUT - Loop/Dais ychain to another MEQ1000A.
R9; AC Line Cord – For connection to the nominal 120 VAC power source. This unit is
designed f or use in countries with 120 VAC power standards but the power supply will
accept an input voltage range of 90 VAC minimum to 260 VAC maximum with a power
line frequency of either 50 or 60 Hz.
