8.1.3 Configuration
The interface (Figure 8-1) provides DVB compliant operation when pins 2 and 15 are
grounded using the “DVB Configuration” jumper settings described below.
In a demodulator, the LVDS interface (J3) only has provision for DVB Configuration,
and the Master Clock Input is not used. See jumpers J2 and J7.
