provide information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode (see Satellite Receiver and Satellite Antenna Satellite Antenna
Grounding).
Satellite Receiver & Satellite Antenna Grounding

Before you can operate your satellite receiver system, both the satellite receiver
chassis and the satellite antenna LNB connection(s) must be properly grounded. For
information about grounding your satellite receiver, also referred to as receiver,
and satellite antenna follow:
Grounding the receiver: The receiver ground connection is made from the shield1)
conductor attached to the RF coaxial cable F connector (rear panel RF IN input) to
an external grounding rod via a receiver/antenna grounding block. A separate
grounding wire connects the grounding block (and the satellite antenna LNB
grounding block) to the grounding rod.
Grounding the LNB and/or VHF/UHF antenna: The antenna ground connection is
made from the satellite LNB/antenna ground and/or the VHF/UHF terrestrial
antenna discharge unit to an external grounding rod via a receiver/antenna
grounding block.
General grounding information: The actual ground/cable connections made
depend on your site installation requirements, and on the type of satellite antenna
and/or VHF/UHF terrestrial antenna you have. If your satellite antenna
installation includes a dual-port LNB, both RF coaxial cables must be routed to the
grounding block. When connecting RF coaxial antenna cables to the grounding
block, looping the antenna cables as shown in the accompanying figure helps to
direct moisture away from the grounding block. Always choose the shortest route
possible when connecting RF coaxial cables to the receiver/antenna grounding
block and when connecting the grounding wire(s) to the grounding rod.
1)Multi-strand (braided) shield surrounding the center conductor of the coaxial cable.
4035197 Rev C
vii
Important: Each ground connection must be made using a single (continuous)

piece of wire. Never splice two wires together when making a ground
connection. Corrosion and weathering can cause a poor electrical connection at
the splice which can lead to an ineffective and dangerous ground condition.
Figure 1. Outdoor antenna grounding
Important: Install this product on a flat surface only, ensuring that all four
rubber feet are making full contact with the mounting surface. During
normal operation, it is recommended that physical contact be limited to
using the front panel buttons only. Do not place any other equipment
directly on top of the receiver, and prevent foreign objects from coming
into direct contact with the chassis. Subjecting this product to abnormal
impact may result in momentary interruption of video service.

D9865 Satellite Receiver

General Description
The Cisco D9865 Satellite Receiver is designed for satellite content distribution and
it targets the broadcast, business TV, private networks, and SMATV environment.
The receiver offers the ability to receive digitally encrypted video, audio, VBI, and
data. It provides a cost-effective, variable-rate solution to transition existing DVBS/MPEG-2 services to DVB-S2/MPEG-4. Additional features include IP data and
RS-232 utility data (D9865D only).
The unit is set up via the on-screen display menu, using a handheld infrared remote
control, or navigation keys on the front panel of the receiver. The unit can also be set
up and monitored using the embedded Web interface. User-editable presets are
provided for quick re-tuning to other broadcasts. The receiver also supports SNMP
control via the Ethernet port as an option.
Free-to-air Reception
This receiver is capable of receiving a DVB/MPEG compliant free-to-air broadcast.
Secured Broadcast Reception

Supporting the PowerVu conditional access with DES or DVB descrambling, or
with DVB Conditional Access Module (CAM) based DVB CA systems, this receiver
can be used to receive secured corporate communication of video, audio, and data
broadcast. It can also be used for secured delivery of TV programming to hotels,
MDUs, homes, and commercial establishments such as restaurants and stores.
Data Outputs (D9865D only)

Data outputs can be used for distribution of electronic documents, such as price lists
and video files. Utility data (RS-232) can be used for smaller file transfer at a slower
speed. DVB MPE IP data via an Ethernet interface allows for connection to a local
area network for larger file transfer or communication with multiple network
clients.
MIB Browser
A MIB Browser is a type of SNMP manager, which can be used to communicate
with SNMP agents. It is a tool for reading and writing to controls and status objects
defined by the MIB.
Note: A MIB file is included in the delivery from Cisco for the D9865 Satellite
Receiver to support 3rd party SNMP managers.

Adjusting the Satellite position using Signal Tones
Dish alignment can be done using the audible signal adjustment tone. The
characteristics of the signal tone are shown in the table below. Align the dish to
achieve signal lock and then best signal quality.
Note: The signal adjustment tone automatically outputs as PCM audio type only,
regardless of the Digital Audio Preference set in Audio Setup.
Signal Lock/Quality
Tone
No Signal Lock
Slow repeating tone.
Signal Lock
Steady tone.
Signal Lock +
increasing Signal
Quality
Steady tone increasing in pitch.
Provided the RF cable is connected between the satellite receiver and the LNB,
Signal level displays a low number (typically less than 40). As the receiver achieves
Signal Lock, the Signal Level increases, and the tone changes from a slow repeating
beep to a steady tone. Once Signal Lock is obtained, align the dish to increase the
Signal Quality to the best possible value (up to a maximum of 10).
Signal Level and Signal Quality

The Signal Level and Signal Quality of the incoming signal are displayed both
numerically and graphically using bar graphs.
The Signal Level is associated with the RF input signal level. The Signal Level
display is continuously updated to indicate the relative strength of the received RF
input signal. It is displayed in the range from 0 to 100. Signal Level is displayed on
the Tuning / Preset and Dish Setup menus both numerically and graphically.
The Signal Quality (displayed in the range from 0 to 100) is associated with the Bit
Error Rate, and is a measure of the signal quality. Signal Quality is displayed both
numerically and graphically on the Dish Setup menu. To obtain the best signal
quality, adjust the dish position to obtain the highest Signal level and Signal
Quality possible.
Temporary, solar-related electromagnetic disturbances occur every year during the
spring and autumn months. These disturbances usually persist for several minutes
a day for approximately one week at this time. Your service provider can advise
you about channels that may be adversely affected.
To verify your satellite LNB antenna installation or improve signal reception, refer
to your antenna equipment installation manual, or contact your local service
provider.

Changing the Lock Level
Receiver lock levels are password-protected. When an attempt is made to change
the lock level setting, a password prompt is displayed. After the correct password is
entered, you can change the lock level setting.
If the incorrect password is entered (any lock level setting), a message box appears
on-screen to confirm an invalid password entry, and access to the locked options
are denied.
Note: The default password is 1234.
For details on the four lock levels, see D9865 Satellite Receiver Lock Levels, on
page C-2.
