General Information

If equipped with a receiver card, the 

Unity 4600

 receives an L-band RF carrier from an external LNB, 

demodulates the carrier, and then extracts the MPEG transport stream. If equipped with an ASI 

transport card, it decodes the ASI line code and extracts the resulting transport stream. In both cases, if 

conditional access has been applied, the 

Unity 4600

 then descrambles the transport stream (or 

individual programs) if authorized. It then supplies that stream to the DVB-ASI output (with program 

mapping, if enabled). It also may decompress a selected program to provide composite video and two 

stereo-audio outputs. (The compressed audio formats may be MPEG or Dolby AC-3.)

This guide provides information for setup and initial operation of the 

Unity 4600

. For a full description of 

refer to the 

Unity 4600 User's Reference Manual

Unpacking and Inspection

The box containing the unit should include:

Carefully unpack the items and inspect for obvious signs of physical damage that might have occurred 

during shipment. Any damage claims must be reported to the carrier immediately. Be sure to check the 

package contents carefully for important documents and materials.

Note:

Save the original packing materials and shipping containers in case the unit must be returned 

for repair. Packing the unit in another container in such a way that the unit is damaged will void 

the warranty.
