Setting Up Your HD Receiver

Connecting the RF Remote Control Receiver/ Antenna

You can place the RF remote control receiver base behind the HD receiver or hidden elsewhere out of view.

Plug the RF remote control receiver cable into the RF REMOTE connector on the rear of the HD receiver. Extend the cable and place the antenna in the desired location. To achieve the best operating range from the remote control, the antenna should be placed as high and as far away from metal objects as possible.

This completes the installation. Go to the location where you would like to use the remote control and try it. If you experience any problems, verify that the batteries are strong and you are within operating range. If you continue to have problems, try repositioning the RF remote control receiver.

Setting the Address of Your HD Receiver and Remote Control

To avoid interference between your remote control and neighbors who may have a similar model remote control, you should change the remote control broadcast address of your remote controls and HD receiver. This is similar to choosing a channel on a cordless phone so that you and your neighbors don’t hear each other’s conversations.

See Chapter 7, “HD Receiver’s Menu System, Advanced Preferences, Receiver ID,” for instructions on changing the remote control address for the HD receiver.

See Chapter 8, “Programming Your Remote Control, Using the Remote Control,” for instructions on changing the remote control address.

Now You Can Turn It On

Once you have connected everything, you can begin powering up the components. Turn the TV on and set it to the HD input, VIDEO or S-VIDEO, or the HD receiver’s output channel (3 or 4). Do the same for the VCR, if applicable. Now turn the HD receiver on. You will see the start-up screen for several seconds.

Note: The HD receiver VIDEO output defaults to the Y, Pr, and Pb HD connectors when first used. If you are not using an HDTV monitor, or prefer to use the standard video outputs, try switching the outputs of the HD receiver from HD to SD. Using the remote control, press the SAT button once, then press the ACTION button, followed by the INPUT button. Pressing this sequence of keys will switch the receiver between the High Definition (1080i) output mode and the Standard Definition (480i) output mode. Following one or more of this ACTION INPUT sequence, your picture should appear.

If you have a Mitsubishi HD-upgradeable TV, this same sequence of buttons will also switch between viewing the DTV (HD) input and INPUT 2 (SD) inputs of the TV.
