Chapter 3 Configuring Platform Parameters Configuring QAM-RF Modules 3.12 Configuring QAM-RF Modules The NSG 9000-6G device has nine slots. Each slot accommodates a single QAM-RF module. Selected slot, with the following QAM-RF related information Available tabs with default ports tab in view The Back Panel View section, displays the slots while indicating the following QAM-RF module related information: • Slot number - a number between 1 - 9 NOTE: To view the actual mounted module, select the Module tab. See 3.12 Configuring QAM-RF Modules on page 42. • Slot Status - either of the following appears: Module OK - indicates that the slot is occupied with the configured module and the latter is working. Module Out - indicates that the slot is vacant. Module Fail - indicates that the mounted module is faulty or that the applied configuration does not match the currently mounted module. NOTE: To view licensing granted for this module, select Platform > Licensing > Assign Licenses. In addition, when selecting a slot, you may access the properties of the mounted module. The Module Properties are arranged in the following tabs: • Module - See 3.12.2 Configuring a QAM-RF Module on page 46. • Port - the default tab. See 3.12.3 Configuring Module RF Ports on page 47. • QAMs - See 3.12.4 Configuring/Viewing QAM Channels on page 49. • General - See 3.12.5 Viewing QAM-RF Module Information on page 52. • Redundancy - See 3.13 RF Module Redundancy Overview on page 52. You can also reset each module by clicking the Reset Module button. See page 23. The following sections guide you on how to configure the QAM-RF modules. The QAM-RF module configuration includes the following stages: © 2012 Harmonic Inc. 42 NSG 9000-6G, Version 2.7, Rev B
