Kathrein Software & Tools for Configuration, Planning and Service
Below you will find an overview of our available Kathrein software and tools. These support you in the configuration, administration, planning, and other applications related to our products.
Planning tool for SAT IF, single-cable and cable TV network systems
KATHREIN Digital Systems, market leader in digital satellite reception technology and specialist in digital signal distribution, has expanded its free planning tool. In addition to SAT IF systems in star distribution and SAT single-cable systems, cable network systems of network level 4 for up to 32 subscriber connections can now also be planned.
This means that the simple configuration process via the KATHREIN Digital Systems website is now also available in another market segment. All relevant information, such as signal levels, cable lengths, and the number of amplifiers, is clearly displayed. Specialist retailers and installers then receive a bill of materials with all the required components and can transfer them directly to the shopping cart of their preferred wholesaler via the ELBRIDGE 2.0 interface.
Possible configurations for broadband cable networks include the apartment star with remote branches for 4 to 32 subscriber connections, the central star with internal branch at the installation site for 4, 6 or 8 subscriber connections, and the series distribution with internal distributor and connected loop-through sockets with a maximum of 4 sockets per downlink and 3 to 32 subscriber connections.
The most important features of the tool summarized briefly:
- Comfortable design of simple & complex satellite / single-cable / broadband cable network systems
- Complete overview of all level values for the entire system
- Planning of individual cable lengths & placement of amplifiers
- Calculation of the respective cable types & packaging units
- Saving, loading & subsequent editing of a configuration
- Creation of a level plan (PDF) for the entire system
- Creation of a materials list (PDF) with all required components
- Automatic transfer of all items into the shopping cart of an electrical wholesaler via ELBRIDGE 2.0 interface
- Output of the plan in GAEB format
As a first step towards the universal use of its planning tool, KATHREIN Digital Systems now offers the planning of SAT IF systems in star distribution in English – including an English bill of materials and an English level diagram. With this, the company is responding to the demand for internationally understandable documentation and facilitating multilingual communication between property owners, service providers, and retailers.
Management software for our K-LAN system
The EXI 700 coax IP manager software allows you to view and manage EXI 01 coax/IP modems in a coax distribution network. It also displays the data throughput of each modem. The EXI 700 coax IP manager software is available for Windows operating systems.

Tool for generating a manual single-cable command set
The KOneCableCommand tool can generate DiSEqC commands for single-cable systems according to the EN 50494 and EN 50607 standards.
The generated single-cable DiSEqC command sets can then be used with older measuring devices such as the MSK 25 or MSK 125.
These measuring devices also make it possible to measure the SAT signal on new single-cable multiswitches, such as the EXD series.

to display the alarm control panel and the IP camera
The KATHREIN IP Finder locates components such as the FAZ 100 wireless alarm control panel and our WIK 100 Wi-Fi IP camera on your home network. The KATHREIN IP Finder also allows you to adjust the IP addresses of these components.
for the construction of optical distribution systems
Our logical calculator allows you to plan and calculate optical distribution systems. It also provides a detailed list of the components required for your project.
for the administration of our measuring devices MSK 30/L, MSK 130 and MSK 140
SMART PC software for updating the firmware version or program list for the following measuring devices
- MSK 30, MSK 30/D, MSK 30/L
- MSK 130, MSK 130/O, MSK 130/IA, MSK 130/OIA
- MSK 140 OHD
- MSK 240 OIA
to create a TS file for our UFX 100
Our TS-Creator software is required to create a TS file.
This allows, for example, multiple photos of a hotel to be combined into a video.
This file can then be played through our UFX 100 HDMI encoder and output as a hotel channel into the existing cable network.
