Overview

Contemporary Research offers a simple solution for intelligent television control and interactive distributed

media management, the PSC Philips Smart Cards. The ICC2-PSC communicates bi-directionally over the same

RF coax that carries the CATV channels, while the ICC1-PSC receives 1-way commands over RF. Older Philips

“P” series require the PSC-series cards, newer Philips TVs use the low-profile PSC2-series cards.

All PSC cards take advantage of Philips SmartCard TV technology. Inserting into the SmartCard card slot, the

PSC cards use the TV's internal IR sensor, character generator, and tuner to deliver cost-effective network TV

and media management. The cards are available optionally with external S-Video and composite AV input

connections (shown above).

oCreates on-screen channel labels, messages interactive text menus, and system feedback using

TV’s onboard character generator

oReceives wireless commands from IC-RC IR remote using TV’s IR sensor

oDelivers absolute volume control for level and mute

oManages channel access using list of available channels (tuning ring) in controller memory

oDelivers absolute power control with on/off feedback from TV

•Interacts with Philips SmartCard TV’s internal IR sensors, character generator, and tuner

•Networks with up to 4,000 TVs through the ICC-HE or ICW-HE Head-End Network Controller (HE)

oICC1 units receive commands over the same RF cable as CATV channels

oICC2 units provide 2-way command and control with feedback over RF

oICC2 units transmits key commands from IC-RC remote for 2-way control applications

oExclusive SmartZone architecture controls hundreds of controllers with a single command

•Responds to individual and zone commands from a single RS-232 port on the HE

•Provides LED feedback for network, control, and operation status

•Restores all operation status after loss of power from data stored in non-volatile memory

Using the IC-RC Remote for On-Screen Menus

In order to complete the setup, you’ll need the IC-RC IR Remote to use the On-Screen Menus. Typically, the

remote is shipped ready to communicate to Smart TV. Just in case, here’s how to set the IR codes in the remote:

1. Press and hold the Select button and a numeric key for the code # below.

2. Release the two keys at the same time.

3. The remote will now send the selected codes.

4. Remote will keep the codes, even if battery power is lost.

IR Code Format Code

Philips Smart TV 2

Philips Previous Channel

Some Philips models will not respond properly to the IC-RC’s PrevCh command, marked as A/CH on the Philips

IR remote. If this happens, use the Philips special setup IR remote to set the A/CH A/V SWITCH menu selection

to OFF.

On-Screen Setup Menus

The remaining installation steps use the IR remote and the TV’s built-in character generator.

1. Touch Menu, then 999, then Enter.

2. The text CR MENU> should appear on the screen.

3. Key in one of the commands shown below, then press Enter to activate.

4. Note that, in Menu mode, the Channel Down key acts as a backspace/delete key and Channel Up

can act as an Enter.

Command Function

All The following commands are used for all units

45678 Display firmware version

45679 Display the unit’s Device #. At this point, you can use the Channel Down key as a

Delete key, enter a new device # with the remote’s numeric keypad, then hit Enter

to save the new number.

65478 Reset unit, similar to disconnecting power then restarting.

65479 Disable smart port communication. After about 5 seconds the TV will drop

communication with the TV controller and revert to stand alone TV mode. At this

point, the installer can switch to the TV Mode on the remote control, and then adjust

the TV setup parameters. To re-enable smart port, press Record on IC-RC.

65487 Initialize to factory default settings: Power on, unlocked, display channel 11, channel

ring set to 4, 5, and 11, Group 0. Note that this command works even if TV power is

off or control is locked out.

65482 Shows Net RX if receiving the iC-HE’s “heartbeat” pulse once per second, !NET RX

if not. Also displays receive signal strength for ICC2 units.

ICC2 The following commands are used for the ICC2 only

65480 Enable constant Net transmit to the Head-End. This is used for measuring the signal

strength of the ICC2 unit’s RF output. Press Enter to stop transmitting, or the unit

will automatically stop after 50 seconds.

65481 Display ICC2 transmitter frequency control voltage – should be 2000 - 3150.

65483 Display DF transmitter frequency deviation – should be 245 - 300.

RS-232 Control Protocol

Overview

RS-232 control for up to 4000 TV Controllers is provided through an iC-series Head-End Network Controller. The

ICC-HE Head-End manages iC-Net communication over RF Coax to ICC1 (1-way) and ICC2 (2-Way) TV

Controllers as well as ICW TV Controllers over twisted-pair Cat3/5 wiring. The ICW-HE Head-End operates on

the twisted-pair network only.

Each TV Controller is assigned a unique device number from 1 to 4000 to which control commands are

addressed. The devices are organized into 16 zones of 255 devices. All the devices in each zone will respond to

a single “virtual device number” — one device number that represents all devices in each zone. There is also a

global device number, 4095, that will command all devices in the system. This feature dramatically speeds up

system operation and programming, because one command can affect an entire group of devices—or all. To

take advantages of this feature, review the section iC-Net Zones in this manual.

In ABC Media Retrieval Systems, we reserve the first group of devices, 1-255, for components operating on a

connected control system. Zones 1-16 are used for CR TV Controllers, Video Display Controllers and Tuners. As

it’s unlikely any system will use all 4000 devices, this may be a good device standard for your system as well.

The Remote RS-232 port on the Head-End Network Controller can communicate from 1200 to 38.4K baud. The

factory default setting is 19.2K baud, 8 data bits, No parity, and 1 stop bit.

Command String Structure

Characters in command strings are expressed in a combination of hex and ASCII characters. For clarity, the

following protocol examples use the following conventions:

•Single-byte hex numbers are preceded by the ‘$’ symbol

•ASCII characters or strings are enclosed in single quotes

•Numbers not marked as hex or ASCII are a single decimal byte

•Parameters shown in < > brackets are single byte

•A series of multiple commands or parameters are set apart by [ ] brackets

•Commas separate the bytes, but are not part of the protocol

•Double quotes enclose the command string, but are not part of the protocol

Command format:

“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,<ncb>,<cmd1>,<parameter> [<cmdN>]"

$A5 Starts the command

<dh> The zone or high order byte of the device

<dl> The unit or low order byte of the device (0 for global zone)

<ncb> The number of command bytes to follow

<cmd1> The first command byte

<parameter> Command parameters (not used by all commands)

[<cmdN>] Multiple commands can be concatenated, with byte count added to <ncb>
