Overview

BISS Mode 1 uses a fixed scrambling key, known as the Session Word, to

encrypt the transport stream. The same Session Word must be entered in

the Receivers and the Encoder to enable the transport stream to be

decrypted.
BISS-E adds an extra layer of security, as a unique key is required for

each Encoder and Receiver. This is known as the Encrypted Session Word.

Each Encoder and Receiver is assigned a unique BISS Injected ID, which

should not be made generally known, and which cannot be read from the

unit.
For a particular transmission a BISS Session Word is chosen, and then

encrypted, using each unit’s BISS Injected ID to produce an Encrypted

Session Word for each unit. This means that if an unauthorised person

obtains an Encrypted Session Word, it is useless unless they also know the

BISS Injected ID for the unit that the Encrypted Session Word was

intended.

Scramble Option

To access the Scramble option, press the Scramble softkey in the Mux
Menu

. This enables security scrambling of the Encoder transmission to be

switched on or off.

NOTE…
If the scrambling is switched between BISS Mode 1 and BISS-E, the session word, or the encrypted

session word must be re-entered.
