1.4. Precautions
Only qualified persons are authorized to carry out maintenance on this device.
Read the Users' Manual carefully, and follow the correct procedure when setting up the device.
Do not open your Kyrion or attempt to disassemble or modify it, unless instructed by an ATEME representative. To
avoid any risk of electrical shock, fire, short-circuiting or dangerous emissions, never insert any metallic object into
the enclosure. Your Kyrion contains no user-serviceable parts. If it appears to be malfunctioning, have it inspected
by a qualified ATEME Technical Support representative.
Never expose your device to rain, use it near water, or in damp or wet conditions. Never place objects containing
liquids on the Kyrion, as they may spill into its openings; doing so increases the risk of electrical shock, short-
circuiting, fire or personal injury.
Basic electrical safety precautions should be followed to protect you from harm and the system from damage:
• Be aware of where the On/Off power switch is situated on the chassis; as well as the rack's emergency power off-
switch. Check also where the disconnection switch or electrical outlet is located.
• Power should always be disconnected from the system before opening it. When disconnecting the power, you
should first power down the system and unplug the power cords of the power supply.
• Only the provided power supply cord must be use to power the Kyrion. This power supply cord includes a grounding
plug and it must be plugged into a grounded electrical outlet. If you should use a different power supply cord, make
sure it is compatible with your locale electrical power supply.
• The mains plug (or the mains plugs for dual plug version) is used as the disconnect device and shall be easily
accessible.
• The internal fuse of the DC filter board shall be replaced by a 5x20mm medium-acting 8A 250V fuse, like LittleFuse
234 series.
• The rear connector is used as the disconnect device and shall be easily accessible.

2.8. Ventilation
Air ventilation prevents abnormal temperature rises inside the unit. Next figures show cool air intakes and warm air
outputs.
Place the Kyrion® in a well-ventilated space, and allow ideally up to 10cm of free space on all sides of the Kyrion®
so increasing air circulation and cooling.
Warning
Never obstruct air intakes and outtakes. Beware of 19'' bays doors, if any.
www.ateme.com Page 25
3. Installation
3.1. Hardware setup
• For Stand Alone installations, place the unit on a stable surface. It requires clearance above and on each side to
allow for cooling.
• Alternatively, for Rack installations, mount the unit in a standard 19-inch rack. The Kyrion® requires 1U of vertical
space.
Note
Note for Rack installations: Carefully slide the Kyrion® into a shelf space in the rack. Use your equip-
ment rack's screws to secure the device in place, in the rack.
• The Stream interfaces [B3] and [B4] should be plugged into your broadcast network
• The MGT interface [B2] should be plugged into your supervision network
Note
If you do not have different networks, using the streaming port to do both broadcasting and administra-
tion is possible. This is not recommended for production phases.
Step 5: Power up
Power up the Kyrion®, switching the 0/1 button [P1] into the position 1.
www.ateme.com Page 26
• The front panel selection menu appears when the unit is up and running.
www.ateme.com Page 27
4. User's Interfaces
4.1. Three configuration tools
There are 3 different ways to configure your Kyrion®:
• SNMP.
The web interface provides access to all the parameters but need a network connection to be used. The Front Panel
interface provides access to all the operational parameters and most of the system ones. Choose the most appropriate
way depending on your overall system’s design.
The control buttons and LCD provide an easy method of setting the network interface addresses and default gateway
parameters directly from the front of the Kyrion® System without using a management computer.
www.ateme.com Page 28
4.2.2. LCD
The LCD [FP4] displays some status information and configuration menus.
4.2.3. TFT
The TFT [FP5] displays the video input signal and its format.
4.2.4. Keypad
The Keypad is used for configuration when navigating the local setup menu of the Kyrion®.
Use the directional keys, [FP8] to [FP11], to navigate through the different menus.
Use the 'OK' key [FP6] to validate changes and the 'Cancel' key [FP7] to cancel any action.
Depending on the context, use the extended keys [FP12] to enter characters, numbers or as a shortcut to some menus.
4.2.5. Menu
This chapter lists all the parameters that can be set through the front panel interface. Some are not accessible depending
on your product or the licenses that you purchased.

Ethernet connection
Connect the Kyrion® MGT interface B2 to an Ethernet connection.
• use a cross-over Ethernet cable to connect the devices directly to the controlling computer,
• use straight through Ethernet cables to connect the devices to a hub or switch.
Configure both the management computer and Kyrion® to be on the same subnet. To do this, two solutions are
possible:
• change the IP address of the management computer to 192.168.128.2 (for example) and the netmask to
255.255.255.0
Since you are probably not starting on the same sub-nets, it is necessary to use the front panel interface at first boot.
Note
To access the Kyrion® web-based manager, start any web browser and browse to http://192.168.128.1
This is the Factory default IP address of the MGT port.
Depending on the Kyrion® configuration, a pop-up may appear, asking for a Login and a Password (see Figure 4.2,
“Log into the web server”). In this case, login is 'admin' and the factory default password is 'admin'.
Note
Warning
www.ateme.com Page 35
Login protection and the associated password can be configured in the System tab of the web interface (see Sec-
tion 4.3.6, “ System Tab ”).
Note
The login dialog box will be displayed in your OS language. It may differ from the above figure.

Auto sense
The auto sense functionality allows the encoded stream to dynamically adapt to a video input format change, e.g. if
the video input changes from 625i to 720p50 the encoder will adapt to encode a 720p50 stream. However it imposes
some constraints on the configuration. Among others:
• The video bitrate must be compatible with all video formats (minimum h.264 video bitrate is multiplied by 4).

When enabled the automation functionality will look for a rule matching the SDI input video format and then will
load its corresponding channel preset.
www.ateme.com Page 59
Note
Channel auto sense and system automation are different functionalities. Auto sense will follow the SDI
input video format and modify the preset as little as necessary to encode the new input video format
(e.g. the audio and data ES will not be impacted). Automation will load a new channel preset following
the SDI input video format change.
Warning
When used as a logo on the video, the maximum resolution is 512x256 pixels. The alpha channel if present (32-bit
files) is used to do the transparency, otherwise the logo will be fully opaque.
When used as a custom emulation pattern, the maximum resolution is 1920x1080 pixels. The alpha channel if present
(32-bit files) is ignored.

6. Specific Operations
6.1. Installing License
In the web GUI, go to the System tab and click License.
To do so, click the Update button. A pop-up should appear asking for a license file. Click on the Browse button to
point to it and click Ok to proceed with the update, or Cancel to abort.
After a few seconds, a pop-up should appear, asking you to wait while the update process is running. Wait until this
pop-up disappears.
Note
License files are specific files provided by ATEME support. They should bear the extension ".lic" and
are bound to a specific unit Serial Number. If the file does not meet these requirements, it will be rejected.
The lower section is a summary of the licensed features with their status:
• 'Yes': A valid license file has been provided and the feature is available for use.
This panel is dedicated to firmware management. From here, you can, install a new firmware version, make a backup
of your current version or restore your backup version.
It is always a good idea to make a backup of a known good functioning system version. It can be useful to recover
from situations requiring a Factory Reset for example or coming back from an update not fully fulfilling your needs.
Firmware update
Click Update. A pop-up should appear asking for the update package file. Click on the Browse button to point to it
and click Ok to proceed with the update, or Cancel to abort.
After a few seconds, a pop-up should appear, asking you to wait while the update process is running. Wait until this
pop-up disappears.
www.ateme.com Page 63
Note
You can confirm that the upgrade process completed successfully by checking that the displayed Current
Version number is the one expected.
Note
Update packages are specific files provided by ATEME support. They should bear the extension ".pkg".
Other files will be rejected.
Firmware backup
Click Backup, and press Yes in the pop-up asking you to confirm you really want to save your current system version.
The Backup button is disabled until the backup is done.
Note
You can confirm that the backup process completed successfully by checking that the Current Backup
version number matches the Current Version's one.
Firmware restore
Click Restore, and press Yes in the pop-up asking you to confirm you really want to restore the last saved system
version.
After a few seconds, a pop-up should appear, asking you to wait while the restore process is running. Wait until this
pop-up disappears.
Note
You can confirm that the restore process completed successfully by checking that the Current Version
number matches the Current Backup's one.
6.3. Recovery
If the web GUI becomes unreachable (and you are sure this is not a network problem) or the encoder keeps rebooting
by itself without allowing you to do anything, it may be due to a corrupted file or settings incompatibility between
2 versions preventing the system to boot normally.
To recover from such a situation, the encoder has a maintenance menu accessible during the boot process via the front
panel FP. It allows a purging of some parts of the system.
www.ateme.com Page 64
• Step 2: Watch for a Maintenance message displayed on FP5 after a few seconds.
• Step 3: Quickly press the validation key (see Section 4.2, “ Front Panel ”) to enter the Maintenance menu.
The "Reset Config" function is useful when a newly installed version crashes on boot because of an incompatibility
with the previous settings.
Only the service configuration parameters will be lost. The firmware version and system parameters will stay the same.
• Backup System: Performs a backup of the current firmware version. Same function as Firmware Backup described
in Section 6.2, “ Firmware management ”.
If the current system version gets corrupted for some reason, restoring an older version can make the system usable
again allowing you to take control of the web interface.
It will reset everything including: services configuration settings, firmware version and system parameters.
www.ateme.com Page 65
Note
All the examples provided in this section are using command-line applications snmpget and snmpset,
part of the Open Source Net-SNMP software package which is available for all major Operating Sys-
tems. Graphical MIB browser software can also be used alternatively. This guide is not intented to cover
the usage of these softwares that are only used to illustrate our MIB implementation. For more details
about these softwares, please refer to their respective documentations. In all examples here below the
keyword "$HOST" represents the IP address of the CM5000 interface through which SNMP commands
are performed. To reproduce the example, one shall replace this keyword by the effective IP address
of the CM5000 to be controlled.
Note
Ethernet interface
All the ethernet interfaces of the CM5000 can be used to drive the unit through SNMP. Nevertheless, it is highly
recommended to use the "Management" interface as using Stream1/2 may interfere with the decoding process.
Protocol
SNMP version V2.C is supported.
Requests
The CM5000 listens to incoming SNMP requests on the standard SNMP port 161 (not configurable). GET, GET-
NEXT, GET-BULK and SET requests are supported.
Traps
Traps can be sent to notify transitions between variable states, such as alarms. Traps can be sent simultaneously to
up to 4 targets, on a user-specified port (although standard SNMP port 162 is recommended). All enabled traps are
sent to all targets: enabled traps are configurable at the system level, not on a per-target basis.
www.ateme.com Page 66
Request rate
The CM5000 will process up to 300 requests per second. Walking through the entire MIB may thus take hundreds
of seconds.
Communities
Community string provide a basic right access mechanism. Two community strings are defined: "public" is associated
to Read-Only variables, "private" is associated to Read-Write variables. Those strings can be overriden. Please refer
to Section A.3.3, “ Configuring communities and traps ” for more information.
Every node and leaf follow the same naming convention : it is the concatenation of its parent node name with the
current parameter name. For example, kyrion2StatusInputBitrate leaf is located in kyrion2StatusInput node, which
is itself located in the kyrion2Status node. Thanks to this naming convention, equivalences between Front Panel
parameters and SNMP nodes are easily found.

Note
The "model" node can be used to identify a unit in an unit farm, by following the process described in
Section A.3.1, “ Identification process ”.
• kyrion2ChannelCommand (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.27338.4.3.1) allows to load/save a preset for a channel from one of the
configuration slot. This equivalent to the Web GUI tab "load/save" described inSection 4.3.4, “ Channel Tab ”. It
also allows you to start or stop a channel as Web GUI buttons described in Section 4.3.3, “ Status Tab ”.
• kyrion2ChannelStatus (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.27338.4.3.2) is used to retrieve information on the encoding itself which
can not be easily estimated from or given by the configuration, such as TS current bitrate or encoded input video
format. As Web GUI channel summary described in Section 4.3.3, “ Status Tab ”.
• kyrion2ChannelCfg (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.27338.4.3.3) is used to modify the running configuration. For instance, this
is the appropriate node for setting the video codec type, the PIDs or the audio mapping.
www.ateme.com Page 68
www.ateme.com Page 69
• kyrion2RemuxerCommand (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.27338.4.15.2) allows to load/save a preset for a remuxer from one
of the configuration slot. This equivalent to the Web GUI tab "load/save" described in the Remuxer Tab. It also
allows you to start or stop the remuxer as Web GUI buttons described in Section 4.3.3, “ Status Tab ”.
kyrion2RemuxerCfg (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.27338.4.15.4) is used to modify the running remuxer configuration. For in-
stance, this is the appropriate node for setting the input TS source, the TS bitrate or the outputs.

Warning
Once the community strings have been changed you will need to update the community argument of
your snmp tool.
www.ateme.com Page 71
The CM5000 can send SNMP traps on pre-defined events up to four targets. The trap target are defined in the list
kyrion2SnmpManager.
Warning
This list is automatically reorganized so that enabled targets are located on the lowest indexes. Perform-
ing several changes in a single SNMP commands has thus an undefined behaviour.
The following example empties the list of trap target, and adds 172.16.1.22:1256 as a new target.
Note
Warning
This list is automatically reorganized so that the enabled VLAN are located on the lowest indexes starting
at index 4. Performing several changes in a single SNMP command has thus an undefined behaviour.
www.ateme.com Page 72
Warning
The application of the network configuration does not require a reboot. Modifying the interface used
for SNMP configuration can thus lead to SNMP connection loss.
www.ateme.com Page 73
Warning
This list is automatically reorganized so that the enabled routes are located on the lowest indexes. Per-
forming several changes in a single SNMP command has thus an undefined behaviour.
The following example configures streams targeting 172.16.127.219/32 on any interfaces to be routed to
172.16.127.248.

Group Of Pictures. In MPEG video encoding, a group of pictures, or GOP, specifies the order in
which intra-frames and inter-frames are arranged.
The GOP is a group of successive pictures within a MPEG-coded film and/or video stream. Each
MPEG-coded film and/or video stream consists of successive GOPs. From the MPEG pictures con-
tained in it the visible frames are generated.
A GOP can contain the following picture types:
I-picture and/or I-Frame (English intra coded picture) reference picture, corresponds to a fixed image
GOP and is independent of other picture types. Each GOP begins with this type of picture.
P-picture and/or P-Frame (English predictive coded picture) contains difference information from the
preceding I or P-Frame.
B-picture and/or B-Frame (English bidirectional predictive coded pictures) contain difference infor-
mation from the preceding and/or following I or P-Frame.
D-picture and/or D-Frame (English DC direct coded picture) serves the fast advance.
A GOP always begins with an I-Frame. Afterwards several P-Frames follow, in each case with some
frames distance. In the remaining gaps are B-Frames. With the next I-Frame a new GOP begins.

www.ateme.com Page 91
Management information base stems from the OSI/ISO Network management model and is a type of
database used to manage the devices in a communications network. It comprises a collection of ob-
jects in a (virtual) database used to manage entities (such as routers and switches) in a network.
Objects in the MIB are defined using a subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) called Struc-
ture of Management Information Version 2 (SMIv2) RFC 2578.The software that performs the pars-
MIB ing is an MIB compiler.
The database is hierarchical (tree structured) and entries are addressed through object identifiers. In-
ternet documentation RFCs discuss MIBs, notably RFC 1155, Structure and Identification of Man-
agement Information for TCP/IP based internets, and its two companions, RFC 1213, Management
Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-based internets, and RFC 1157, A Simple
Network Management Protocol.
Some transmission schemes, such as those in ATSC and DVB, impose strict constant bitrate require-
Null pack- ments on the transport stream. In order to ensure that the stream maintains a constant bitrate, a Multi-
ets plexer may need to insert some additional packets. The PID 0x1FFF is reserved for this purpose. The
payload of null packets may contain any data at all, and the receiver is expected to ignore its contents
A packet is the basic unit of data in a transport stream. It consists of a sync byte, whose value is 0x47,
followed by three one-bit flags and a 13-bit PID. This is followed by a 4-bit continuity counter. Ad-
ditional optional transport fields, as signaled in the optional adaptation field, may follow. The rest of
Packet
the packet consists of payload. Packets are most often 188 bytes in length, but some transport streams
consist of 204-byte packets which end in 16 bytes of Reed-Solomon error correction data. The 188-
byte packet size was originally chosen for compatibility with ATM systems.
PAT stands for Program Association Table. The PAT lists PIDs for all PMTs in the stream. Packets
PAT
containing PAT information always have PID 0x0.
To assist the decoder in presenting programs on time, at the right speed, and with synchronization,
PCR programs usually periodically provide a Program Clock Reference, or PCR, on one of the PIDs in the
program.
Each table or elementary stream in a transport stream is identified by a 13-bit PID. A demultiplexer
extracts elementary streams from the transport stream in part by looking for packets identified by the
PID
same PID. In most applications, Time-division multiplexing will be used to decide how often a par-
ticular PID appears in the transport stream.
PIP Picture in Picture. Low resolution stream proceeded from a main resolution input.
Program Map Tables, or PMTs, contain information about programs. For each program, there is a
PMT, with the PMT for each program appearing on its own PID. The PMTs describe which PIDs
contain data relevant to the program. PMTs also provide metadata about the streams in their con-
PMT stituent PIDs. For example, if a program contains an MPEG-2 video stream, the PMT will list
this PID, describe it as a video stream, and provide the type of video that it contains (in this case,
MPEG-2). The PMT may also contain additional descriptors providing data about its constituent
streams.
Transport stream has a concept of programs, which are groups of one or more PIDs that are related to
each other. For instance, a transport stream used in digital television might contain three programs,
to represent three television channels. Suppose each channel consists of one video stream, one or two
Programs
audio streams, and any necessary metadata. A receiver wishing to tune to a particular channel mere-
ly has to decode the payload of the PIDs associated with its program. It can discard the contents of all
other PIDs.
