Setup Information
Check the following items before you begin HCS6300 installation and setup procedures.
HCS6300
__ The HCS6300 feature card must be installed in a CodePlus™ card frame (Example:
HCS6150R) with one or more CodePlus series transcoder cards (Example: HCS7710).
Refer to the Installation & Setup Guide for the card frame to verify that the chassis is
installed properly. Note: All cards must be used in an LG-approved card frame for
this product.
__ The HCS6300 must be installed in the card frame CONTROLLER slot. If another
CodePlus feature card is currently installed in the CONTROLLER slot, the HCS6300 will
replace it.
__ The HCS6300 ships with an HCS6400 fan card. In an HCS6100R card frame, the
HCS6400 fan card must be installed in Slot 7. If another CodePlus card is currently
installed in Slot 7, the HCS6400 will replace it.
__ For HSC6300 Service Port connections, you must use an FTDI TTL-USB cable (P/N
TTL-232R-5V-AJ).
Channel Assignments
__ Create a channel assignment plan for the installation site, or modify an existing plan
to incorporate the RF output of the HCS6300. Ensure that up to four contiguous CATV
channels are allocated for the HCS6300 RF output. The HCS6300 uses a 256-QAM
modulation format, thereby occupying approximately 24 MHz of frequency spectrum.
The RF start channel is user-assigned during system setup, and the remaining channels
are then automatically assigned per EIA-542 STD CATV frequency allocation standards.
For example, if the RF start channel assignment is channel “2,” the three remaining
channels will be “3” “4” and “5.” However, if the RF start channel assignment is “6,” the
three remaining channels will be “95” “96” and “97.” Refer to EIA-542 STD CATV frequency
allocation tables for further information as required.
The highest available RF channel number for the HCS6300 is “135.” Thus, to allocate all
four channels available for HCS6300 RF output, the RF start channel must be set no
higher than “132.”
Transcoders
__ For HCS6300 MUX/MOD functionality, transcoder cards should be inserted in the
following slots: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, and 12. Refer to the Installation & Setup Guide for the
transcoder cards to verify that the cards are installed properly.
__ In a CodePlus HCS6100R card frame, it is possible to install up to three additional
transcoders in the following slots: 3, 6, and 10. These additional transcoders must be
connected to external modulators and upconverters. Refer to the Installation & Setup
Guide for the transcoder cards for further information.

* While HCS6300 MUX/MOD functionality is only applicable for the transcoder cards installed in Slots 1,
2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, and 12, up to three additional transcoders (connected to external modulators and
upconverters) may be installed in an HCS6100R card frame. Transcoder conguration options that are
not tied directly to HCS6300 MUX/MOD functionality will also be available for any additional cards.

Typical HD Transcoder System Overview
The LG HCS6300 MUX/MOD feature card, when used with LG CodePlus series transcoders
in a CodePlus card frame, represents an eight-program HDTV solution for commercial and
institutional MATV systems (hotels, hospitals, etc.).
A typical Transcoder System with MUX/MOD functionality includes:
• An HCS6300 MUX/MOD feature card.
• One CodePlus HD transcoder card for each HD program offered in the facility’s MATV
system—up to eight programs supported.
• A CodePlus series card frame specified for both the HCS6300 and the transcoder card(s).
• DIRECTV
® service. *
• A DIRECTV COM 23 satellite STB for each transcoder card. *
• A 19-inch rack for mounting. *
• Miscellaneous cables and installation hardware (see also setup information on page 6). *
The integrated elements of the Transcoder System:
• Receive up to eight HD programs from DIRECTV.
• Transcode the received digital video and audio streams to MPEG-4 (HCS6700 transcoders)
or MPEG-2 (HCS7700/HCS7710 transcoders) transport streams.
• Encrypt the transcoded digital data streams with Pro:Idiom content protection.
• Multiplex the encrypted streams into four streams of two programs each.
• Modulate and upconvert the multiplexed streams in four contiguous RF channels.
A Pro:Idiom compatible television with a QAM/VSB tuner is required to view premium HD
content. A proper session ID must be set at the TV in order for Pro:Idiom decryption to be
enabled. LG’s Pay-Per-View (PPV) partners can set up this session through their interface.
LG’s Free-To-Guest (FTG) Mode of operation also enables Pro:Idiom decryption.
Note: The RF output from the HCS6300 can be combined with other channels in the site’s
distribution grid.
* Purchased separately.
Note: Design and specifications subject to change without prior notice.

The HCS6300 consists of four main functional blocks:
• MUX: Four parallel multiplexers, each of which can combine up to two encrypted transport
streams into a single 38 Mbps transport stream. The transport streams from the transcoder
cards are supplied to the HCS6300 through the internal backplane circuit board of the card
frame.
• MOD: Four parallel 256-QAM modulators that take the MUX output streams and produce
four modulated outputs.
• Upconverter: This block takes the modulated output streams from the MOD block and places
them on up to four contiguous cable RF channels. The output of this block is a combined RF
signal four channels wide.
• Controller: Provides the PC interface for HCS6300 setup and conguration.
HCS6300 default settings assign the inputs of each channel MUX to specic slots in the
CodePlus card frame, where the RF start channel is assigned to card frame Slots 1 & 2, the
second channel is assigned to card frame Slots 4 & 5, etc.
