Overview
The ICC2-ATSC HDTV Tuner is an integrated HDTV tuner/controller that networks HD display monitors and
projectors in an iC-Net and SignStream display control system. As a universal TV tuner, the ICC2-ATSC can
receive ATSC, NTSC, and clear QAM cable channels from an MATV antenna or CATV cable RF system.
The tuner displays broadcasts through simultaneous HDMI, RGB/Component, and NTSC composite video or
connections. Full-time audio is available from digital 5.1/PCM/Variable PCM HDMI, optical, and coax ports, as
well as variable-level analog stereo audio outputs.
•
•

HD2-RC IR Remote
The HD2-RC IR Remote included with the ICC2-ATSC can be used to setup the tuner and for daily operation.
All of the functions on the remote have equivalent commands in RS-232, Ethernet, and Wired IR formats. In
addition, the ICC2-ATSC front panel buttons can perform Power, Channel, and Volume control.
Power
Turns tuner on and off. Discrete on and off IR commands are
available as well.
Volume Control
Use the Vol+, Vol- and Mute buttons.
Channel Selection
The key change in digital tuning is the need to add a dash (-) and
number after the traditional channel number. Analog channels are
accessed using XX-0, digital channels using XX-1 (or -2, -3, etc).
Ch+, Ch- and PrevCh can be used to access and recall channels.

IC-Net Control Protocol
Overview
RS-232 control for up to 4000 TV Controllers is provided through an iC-series Head-End Network
Controller. The ICE-HE Ethernet Head End and ICC-HE Head End manage iC-Net communication
over RF Coax to ICC1 (1-way) and ICC2 (2-Way) TV Controllers.
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 SmartZones in this manual.
In ABC-Net, 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
<dh>
<dl>
<ncb>
<cmd1>
Starts the command
The zone or high order byte of the device*
The unit or low order byte of the device (0 for global zone)
The number of command bytes to follow
The first command byte
<parameter> Command parameters (not used by all commands)
[<cmdN>] Multiple commands can be concatenated, with byte count added to <ncb>
* iC-Net devices are arranged with a zone mindset. For example, a command sent to Device 256, which
triggers all the units in Zone 1, would be expressed as $A5, 1, 0 (first zone, device zero). A command sent
to 257 would be $A5, 1, 1 (first zone, device 1 in the zone). See iC-Net SmartZones toward the end of this
manual.

iC-Net Zones, Units and Device Addresses
In the front-panel setup instructions, you set the Unit # (1-255), then the Zone # (1-15). This refers to the
iC-Net address structure that includes device number 256 – 4095 that is divided up into 15 Zones.
To simplify controlling groups of devices, iC-Net is divide,d into 15 zones of 255 devices, called SmartZones. All
the devices within each zone can be controlled simultaneously by sending a command to a single virtual device
number.
For example, noting the zone chart below, if we send a Power On command to device #256, all iC-Net
controllers in Zone 1 will turn off at the same time.
This is an immensely powerful feature, because most systems can only address one device at time. If you need
to turn off all 50 TV in a zone, you would need to send 50 commands. In addition to the hassles of creating
multiple commands, there would be a long delay between the first and last command. One command, instant
response is easier.
The Zone number plus the Unit number equals the actual device address.

All Zones
Tip:
While many applications can use just the Zone number, it’s a good practice to assign a unique Unit
number to each controller in the zone. This allows the system software to address individual controllers
if necessary.

System Map
One of the key tasks for iC-Net integrators is to create a logical System Map, assigning device numbers to TV
controllers so they fall into physical zones useful to the client. The device mapping could be sorted by type or
location; whichever suits the application.

The diagram below shows the structure of a typical Contemporary Research media retrieval
system. One of the key aspects for iCC-Net communication is to provide a forward and return
(sub-channel) path for data.

Safety Instructions
Read before operating equipment.
1. Cleaning - Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
2. Power Sources - Use supplied or equivalent UL/CSA approved low voltage DC plug-in transformer.
3. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If you connect an outside antenna or cable system to the product, be
sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides
information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
4. Lightning - Avoid installation or reconfiguration of wiring during lightning activity.
Power Lines - Do not locate an outside antenna system near overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, refrain from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal.
5. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
6. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts, resulting in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the product.
7. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
8. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
•
•
•
•
When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
If liquid spills or objects fall into the product.
If the product is exposed to rain or water.
If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instructions. An improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the
product to its normal operation.
•
•
If the video product is dropped or the cabinet is damaged.
When the video product exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for
service.
* Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call CATV system installer's attention to
Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part I), that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as possible.
