Test Plan 1 HOST ACCEPTANCE TEST PROCEDURES 1.1 Purpose and Scope The Acceptance Test Plan (ATP) is a compendium of test procedures that shall be used to demonstrate that a Unidirectional Receiving Device complies with certain Host and interface specifications. CableLabs and Consumer Electronic Manufacturers have developed these procedures to facilitate the product development and certification efforts of equipment suppliers. The ATP techniques contained in this document are not necessarily the only methods for demonstrating compliance, but represent the specific tests that have been jointly developed and accepted by mutual agreement. In the alternative, Equivalent ATP’s that produce identical pass/fail results for each of the PICS as are produced under the ATP procedures contained herein may used in accordance with, and upon execution of, the Agreement Concerning Equivalent ATP’s dated February 25, 2004; or in accordance with the rules of the Federal Communications Commission, at such time as they are amended as described in that Agreement. The ATP procedures contained herein shall be used by CableLabs and by any other party seeking to Verify, Self-verify, or otherwise certify that a Uni- directional Receiving Device complies with the relevant specifications. As new testing methods or the use of alternative test equipment or procedures are approved by mutual agreement as providing consistent results, they will be added to this document. The ATP procedures are “black box” tests; that is, they do not require opening the equipment under test to access special test points or to invoke test modes of operation. There are requirements that cannot be verified by black box techniques and supplier-proprietary procedures are required to test such requirements. These supplier-proprietary test procedures are beyond the scope of the ATP. This ATP tests compliance with certain PICS requirements. Successful completion of this ATP does not guarantee that a device will operate properly in a commercial environment, interoperate with other devices, or conform to other requirements. Subsequent revisions of this document may contain additional test procedures. 1.2 Definitions UDRD Uni-Directional Receiving Device Low channel 61.25 MHz analog visual carrier, 63 MHz center freq QAM (channel 3) Mid channel 211.25 MHz analog visual carrier, 213 MHz center freq QAM (channel 13) High channel 571.25 MHz analog visual carrier, 573 MHz center freq QAM (channel 82) Page 6 of 136 Uni-Dir-ATP-I02-040225 Acceptance Test Plan Proper reception: (1) For analog signals: Means picture and sound with no impairments lower than a rating of 4 on the ITU-R BT.500 scale.
