Generated packets have the Payload bit set, no Adaptation Field, and a valid
Continuity Counter field.

o

PCR Packets:

TPG is generating packets with a valid PCR field (stamped

corresponding to the packet’s departure time at the configured bit rate). The
packets have a small payload with random data, so the Continuity Counter field is
valid and counting.

PID:

controls the PID of the generated packets. This field accepts both decimal and

hexadecimal values (prefixed with 0x).

Bit Rate (bps):

controls the bit rate of the generated packets. The minimum value is

64,000 bps and the maximum value is 213,000,000 bps.

Admin License Keys Tab

The 9992-ENC has a number of optional licensable features. The Admin License Keys Tab is
used to manage these features. Using this tab, you can see how many licenses you have for each
optional feature, and how many you are currently using.

The Admin License Keys Tab includes a License Status table, and a configuration area, as shown
below. The table rows are license counts, and the columns correspond to different licensable
features. The rows are:

Permanent Licenses:

This is the number of non-expiring licenses for each feature.

Temporary Licenses:

This is the number of temporary licenses for each feature. Once

the license period expires, they are removed.

Total Licenses:

This is the total number of licenses for each feature. It is simply the sum

of the permanent and temporary licenses.

Used Licenses:

This is the number of licenses in use for each feature by the current card

configuration.


If you have temporary licenses, the

Time Remaining

field indicates how long until they expire.

If you do not have temporary licenses, this field has the message “No active temporary licenses”.
The table columns correspond to the licensable features, as follows:

4K Encode:

This enables 4K encoding for the board. If you have the

9992-ENC-4K-HEVC model, this license was pre-installed in the factory.

UL Latency:

This enables Ultra-Low Latency encoding in HEVC. This is not a counted

feature and applies to the board as a whole.

SMPTE 2022 FEC

: This enables FEC for the board. This is not a counted feature; if

FEC is enabled, the corresponding number is 1; if it is disabled, the corresponding
number is 0. The Used Licenses field will be set to 1 if there is at least one FEC instance
in use.

RIST

: This enables RIST for the board. This is not a counted feature; if RIST is enabled,

the corresponding number is 1; if it is disabled, the corresponding number is 0. The Used
Licenses field will be set to 1 if there is at least one RIST instance in use.

4:2:2

: This enables 4:2:2 encoder for the board. This is not a counted feature; if 4:2:2 is

enabled, the corresponding number is 1; if it is disabled, the corresponding number is 0.
The Used Licenses field will be set to 1 if there is at least one 4:2:2 instance in use.
