...

What do Nagra Media Live Platform Provider manuals cover?

...

of the Icareus Suite using the Icareus Provisioning module, which primarily handles the activation and deactivation of signals transmitted to devices.  For example, when a new subscription is created in CRM.COM, Icareus Suite is immediately updated and provisioning signals are sent to subscriber devices to activate registered services.

Major features

  • Integration with Icareus Suite.
  • Real-time activation and deactivation of subscriptions.
  • Archiving of former provisioning requests (refer to Utilities for more information).

Using Icareus

...

  • The Icareus implementation submits requests to the Icareus system in real-time.
    • Subscription actions update the subscription provisioning state in CRM.COM.  If the modification should be reflected in Icareus, a request is constructed (using commands commands) and forwarded to Icareus.

No user intervention or further setup (other than that of the provider) is required for request exchange between CRM.COM and Icareus.

Icareus Business Examples

Subscription with multiple viewing points 

Panel
nameblue
titleProvisioning Distributors

Scenario 1

Company ZX offers its customers the option to have multiple viewing points for each subscription. Customers can have a separate 'box and card' pair in each room, and choose to have a different selection of channels available from each pair.  Up to four viewing points can be added to a subscription.

Solution

CRM.COM must have a different provisioning distributor available for each pair (box and card) offered to subscribers, as channel availability and restrictions can be set separately for each box.

In order to support this, the following distributors must be set up in the provisioning provider.

  • Main
  • TWIN1
  • TWIN2
  • TWIN3
