ChannelBlock

Channel block used to validate this particular IPTV viewed channel object settings.

Type: handle

Default: 0

ChannelRangeEnd

Upper end of the channel range (or ending channel) defined by this viewed channel class. Each viewed channels profile must have a unique set of channels (i.e., channels cannot overlap between profiles) in order to be used concurrently by the same host block.

Type: u32

Default: 32

Range: 2 - 32000

ChannelRangeStart

Lower end of the channel range (or starting channel) defined by this viewed channel class. Each viewed channels profile must have a unique set of channels (i.e., channels cannot overlap between profiles) in order to be used concurrently by the same host block.

Type: u32

Default: 1

Range: 1 - 31999

ChannelRangeStep

Difference between two consecutive channels (i.e., the increment value) belonging to the viewed set of channels.

Type: u32

Default: 1

InitialChannelStart

Starting channel for the first set top box in the block of set top boxes with which this viewed channel is associated. (This is the first channel to be joined by the first host in the block.)

Type: u32

Default: 1

Range: 1 - 32000

InitialChannelStep

Starting channel number for subsequent emulated set-tops (i.e., the increment value for each initial channel in the profile). Use 0 to start all set-tops on the same channel. (This attribute is ignored if the Zap Direction attribute is set to RANDOM.) Using this step, the starting channel for the boxes in a block can be staggered. For example, if initial start channel is 5 and initial channel step is 3, host 1 first joins channel 5 and host 2 first joins channel 8.

Type: u32

Default: 1
