Manhattan Computer Products Plaza HDR-S 500GB manual

HINT: Each “F-connector” used for the satellite dish cable connections has a central wire that is inserted into the hole in the LNB IN socket while the collar is screwed onto the socket. When screwing on the collar, make sure that the central wire goes into the socket hole and is not bent to one side.

Turn off your television and connect the HDMI cable supplied between the HDMI socket at the back of your Plaza HDR•S receiver and an HDMI socket on your television. There may be more than one HDMI socket on your television. If you are not sure which to use, check the television’s manual.

HINT: If your television has no HDMI socket, then it must be connected to the receiver by SCART cable, and you will not be able to watch Freesat channels in High Definition.

Connect the +12V DC connector to the 3A DC 12V connector at the back of the receiver. Then connect the Power Supply Unit (unit with 3 pin mains plug) to an available mains socket that is turned off.

You may have other equipment, such as a DVD recorder or surround sound system, to connect to the receiver.

A video recorder or DVD recorder may be connected to your Plaza HDR•S receiver to make permanent archive recordings of Freesat programmes. You will need to connect a SCART cable between the VCR SCART socket on the back of the receiver and a SCART

socket on the video or DVD recorder. Check the recorder’s manual for guidance.

You can listen to the sound from your Plaza HDR•S through a stereo or surround sound system. For digital sound, connect an optical lead from the sound system’s S/PDIF socket to the one on the Plaza HDR•S. For analogue sound, connect a suitable lead between the receiver’s L and R AUDIO sockets and the L and R audio inputs on the sound system.

To watch On Demand TV services including BBC iPlayer and ITV Player, the Plaza HDR•S must be connected to your internet router or hub using an ethernet cable (not supplied). Plug one end of the ethernet cable into the ETHERNET socket at the back of the Plaza HDR•S, and the other into your hub or router. Make sure the connections are fully pushed in - you’ll hear a click as they lock into place. Consult your router or hub’s documentation for further guidance.

If your receiver is not located near your hub or router, you could use HomePlug powerline adapters to extend your home network using the ring main of your house. Another option is to use a Wireless Ethernet Bridge to bridge the Ethernet socket of the Plaza HDR•S to wi-fi, enabling it to connect wirelessly to your home network. For more information, please consult with your installer or retailer. If you require support for these devices, you will need to contact the manufacturer. The Plaza HDR•S does not support USB Wi-Fi dongles.
