Audio Connection Options

When connecting to a home theater receiver, depending on its inputs, you can use the following QIP7000 series audio outputs:

Connection Type Description

Digital audio optical (S/PDIF) or digital audio coaxial (RCA)

If the receiver supports it, use the digital audio optical (S/PDIF) or digital audio coaxial (RCA) audio output to deliver Dolby Digital audio to a Dolby Digital home theater receiver.

Audio is available via HDMI and IEEE-1394 and no further audio connection is required. For RF output, no further audio connection is required.

Baseband	If the audio receiver does not support Dolby Digital, use the baseband
Audio L and R	AUDIO L and R outputs to connect to the audio receiver.

Connect the stereo audio cable to the AUDIO L and R connectors on the QIP7000 series and the audio left and right connectors on the TV. If the equipment supports it, use the optical S/PDIF or coaxial digital RCA output instead of the AUDIO L and R outputs. In most cases, these outputs offer better audio quality, including support for 5.1 Surround Sound. The cabling diagrams show sample audio/video (A/V) connections to an audio receiver, where the receiver functions as an A/V router.

When connecting to an audio receiver, reference its installation instructions for directions on connecting to baseband and digital (S/PDIF) audio ports.

Note: The VCR and TV receive their A/V signals from the currently selected input device on the audio receiver. This is important when the subscriber has another A/V device such as a DVD player, a secondary VCR, a CD player, or other electronic component. We recommend connecting the TV to the monitor output so on-screen menus for the receiver can be displayed. (In many cases, the receivers themselves have interactive on-screen menus.)

Clearing the Hard Drive

On a previously-used cable terminal, delete all recorded programs from the hard drive before installing it at a new subscriber location. This prevents your new subscriber from viewing programming they may not have purchased or may not want to see.

To prevent subscribers from accidentally deleting all of their recorded programs, a specific set of keystrokes is required to clear the hard drive. Having a TV connected is optional.

To clear the hard drive:

1.Start the diagnostics as described in the Diagnostics section; d01 is displayed on the front-panel display.

2.Using a remote control, within five seconds, press REPLAY, MY DVR three times, and LIVE TV. On some remote controls, the MY DVR key may be labeled LIST.

3.If you correctly enter this key sequence in five seconds or less, the hard drive is cleared and the front-panel displays Clr.

4.If Clr is not displayed, re-enter the key sequence in step 2.
