UPCOM Technologies UC-IRD+
This connector uses SNMP to communicate with the UC-IRD+ Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD). The connector provides all of the SNMP information that is available through the device's web interface.
About
The connector uses the SNMP protocol to poll the IRD for information and to configure the IRD. The layout of the connector mirrors that of the IRD's web interface. Each page of the web interface has a corresponding page in DataMiner's data display. However, there is one additional page in the connector, the Trap page, which contains a table with all the received traps.
By default, any trap received from OID *.19 (signal off) creates an alarm. This alarm is cleared again when a trap is received from OID *.20 (signal on) on the same channel (ASI-1, ASI-2, CI, IP or Tuner). Note: The IRD must be configured to send traps to the DataMiner Agent.
There is also a web interface page. However, to use this page, the client must have access to the IP address of the IRD.

Usage
Status
This page displays basic information about the DVB-S2 Tuner Input, the ASI Input and the Video Output.
Tuner
This page contains the configuration settings for the DVB-S2 Tuner.
Common Interface
This page contains the source selector for the CI input. It also displays the card information for slot 1 and slot 2. If no cards are inserted, then "No Module" will appear for the slot status.
BISS
This page contains the configuration settings for BISS (Basic Interoperable Scrambling System).
Note that the mode first has to be selected before the Mode options below have any impact. The Mode 1 Key must be 12 characters. The Mode E ID must be 14 characters*.* The Mode E Key must be 16 characters. Mode 0 means BISS is turned off.
TS over IP
This page contains the configuration settings for the Transport Stream over IP. At the bottom of the page, two page buttons are displayed, DVB Config and IPTV Config. These open subpages containing the configuration that is effective if the Mode setting has been set to DVB or IPTV respectively.
Output
This page contains the configuration options for the ASI Outputs. You can select the source for the ASI-1 and ASI-2 outputs.
Decoder
This page contains the configuration options for the output of the UC-IRD+. It includes Program options, Video options, Audio options and SDI options.
System
This page contains the configuration options for the overall system as well as basic system information. It includes optional functions, versions and network management. The Device Reboot button can be used to reboot the UC-IRD+. The Factory Default button will return the UC-IRD+ to its factory default settings.
Traps
This page contains a table of all the traps received from the UC-IRD+. By default, only the last 100 traps are saved, and older traps are cleared.
Click the Auto Clear button to change the Auto Clear settings. You can set traps to be cleared automatically after X days by changing the Auto Clear Method to Max Duration on the Auto Clear subpage. Choosing Both enables both the Traps Max Duration and the Traps Max Number values.
Web Interface
This page contains an embedded web browser directed to the IP address of the UC-IRD+. Note that the client machine has to be able to access the device, as otherwise it will not be possible to open the web interface.
