This is a converter-descrambler pioneer that can be controlled by the cable company from their office location. Through remote coded messages sent via the cable system, the cable company can "address" the customers’ unit to begin descrambling selected premium or pay per view channels. An addressable unit cable allows the cable company boxes to access your cable box to change the descrambling configuration or program. This function provides the cable company the ability to add or delete pioneer descrambling on the channels that come cable in through your cable line. A non-addressable unit does not provide the cable company access to the cable box program. The program remains stationary and is unchangeable. Both cable box designs have the potential of receiving all channels, none or somewhere in between dependent on the box program. They should provide two-piece systems, refurbished RAN baseband boxes in conjunction boxes with the latest tech versions. Of course, you get what you pay for. But there are reasonable values out there. 3. Do you need a cable converter if you have the cable company box, VCR or a cable-ready TV?Yes you do. In order to establish a non- addressable system, it is essential to pioneer have a cable converter. A cable ready TV, VCR and a Cable Company box do not provide cable for this boxes feature and in not doing so, cannot replace a cable converter. You must have a converter to use a descrambler. This is especially true if you desire a converter / descrambler that cannot be altered or addressed by your cable company. Usually the source has another outlet or may need to do research on your pioneer request. 14. What are "bullets"? The terms "bullets" is very misleading and has grown way out of control in this industry. Cable cable and boxes companies transmit data, this is how all addressable pioneer cable systems work. cable Both, cable companies and cable dealers boxes alike use the term "bullet" to describe this transmission of data . Bullets are nothing more than transmitted signal which affects the cable box program. It does not fry the guts of the equipment but rather may shut the box off temporarily, reprogram the box, or shut the box down in an error mode. The box can easily be reset by unplugging it for 15min. This will allow the unit to reset and correct any error that has occurred. |
