Abstract

Se refiere a un dispositivo para acceder a la senal de television de distribucion por cable o CATV, que es parte de un sistema de distribucion de senal de CATV que comprende un extremo de cabecera, una red de distribucion, puntos de acceso locales, un conector y un aparato receptor de TV. Dicho dispositivo comprende medios de lectura y control, medios de aprobacion de pago previo reconocidos por los operadores de la red de CATV, y medios de filtro, realizando el medio de lectura y control la lectura del medio de aprobacion de pago previo reconocido por los operadores de CATV, el reconocimiento del medio de aprobacion de pago previo reconocido por los operadores de CATV y el descuento de los créditos (pulsos) y el envío de comandos al medio de filtro que realiza un reconocimiento de seguridad de los comandos y envía la senal de CATV al aparato de TV, realizándose ésto de acuerdo con las características del medio de aprobacion de pago previo reconocido por los operadores de red de CATV y debido a que las comunicaciones para el control de acceso a la senal distribuida a través de la red de CATV se limita a la conexion entre medios de lectura y control y el medio de filtro. En el dispositivo de acuerdo con la invencion un conjunto de comandos codificados es enviado por el medio de lectura el cual utiliza la capacidad bidireccional del cable para controlar el medio de filtro, el cual permite limitar / acceder a un intervalo de frecuencias que se hace disponible por el medio de filtro.It refers to a device for accessing the cable distribution television signal or CATV, which is part of a CATV signal distribution system comprising a header end, a distribution network, local access points, a connector and a TV receiver. Said device comprises reading and control means, prior payment approval means recognized by the operators of the CATV network, and filter means, the reading and control means being performed reading the prior payment approval means recognized by the operators of CATV, the recognition of the means of approval of previous payment recognized by the operators of CATV and the discount of the credits (pulses) and the sending of commands to the filter medium that performs a security recognition of the commands and sends the signal of CATV to the TV set, this being done in accordance with the characteristics of the prior payment approval method recognized by the CATV network operators and because the communications for the control of access to the signal distributed through the CATV network it is limited to the connection between reading and control means and the filter medium. In the device according to the invention a set of coded commands is sent by the reading medium which uses the bidirectional capacity of the cable to control the filter medium, which allows to limit / access a frequency range that becomes available through the filter medium.
