Chapter 1: Connections and Setup  
Things to Consider Before Connecting Components  
Protect Components From Power Surges  
Connect all components before plugging any power cords into the wall outlet.  
Always turn off the TV and other components before you connect or disconnect any cables.  
Position Cables to Avoid Audio Hum or Interference  
Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks.  
Place any Audio/Video (A/V) cables to the side(s) of the TV’s back panel instead of straight down the  
back after connecting components.  
Try not to coil any twin-lead antenna cables and keep them away from all A/V cables as much as  
possible.  
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Safety Tips sheet packed with  
your unit for detailed information.  
Protect Components From Overheating  
Never block ventilation slots in any component. Arrange the components so that air can circulate  
freely.  
Do not stack components.  
Allow adequate ventilation when placing components in a stand.  
Place an amplifier or other hot component on the top shelf of a stand so heated air rising from it  
will not flow around other components.

1. Connect the Decoder to the TV  
A. Connect audio/video cables to the AUDIO OUT R and L jacks on the back of the decoder (color  
coded, red and white), and to the VIDEO OUT jack (yellow). Connect the other ends of the cables  
to the corresponding input jacks on the TV (sometimes labeled VIDEO, AUDIO L/MONO, and  
AUDIO R).  
B. If your TV doesn’t have audio/video input jacks, you need to use an RF modulator (not included).  
Connect the three-pronged end of the modulator cable into the AUDIO OUT L, RF MOD, and  
VIDEO jacks on the back of the decoder. Then use a coaxial cable to connect the Out to TV jack  
on the modulator to your TV’s antenna in jack (sometimes labeled CABLE/ANTENNA).  
Note: If your TV has an S-Video input, we recommend you make the video connection by using this jack instead of the  
video jack. Remember to connect audio cables for this connection as S-Video only carries the picture signal, not the  
sound.  
2. Connect the ethernet cable to the IP Decoder  
Connect one end of a standard CAT-5 ethernet cable (not included) to the ETHERNET jack on the  
modem and the other end to the ETHERNET jack on the decoder.  
3. Connect the DSL line to the DSL Modem  
Connect the DSL line from the wall jack to the DSL LINE IN jack on your modem.  
4. Plug the power supply into the IP Decoder power jack and into an AC outlet.

other end to the TV’s antenna in jack (sometimes labeled CABLE/ANTENNA).  
– OR –  
B. Connect audio/video cables to the AUDIO OUT R and L jacks on the back of the VCR (color  
coded, red and white), and to the VIDEO OUT jack (yellow). Connect the other ends of the cables  
to the corresponding input jacks on the TV (sometimes labeled VIDEO, AUDIO L/MONO, and  
AUDIO R).  
2. Connect the IP Decoder to the VCR  
A. Connect audio/video cables to the AUDIO OUT R and L jacks on the back of the decoder (color  
coded, red and white), and to the VIDEO OUT jack (yellow). Connect the other ends of the cables  
to the corresponding input jacks on the VCR (sometimes labeled VIDEO, AUDIO L/MONO, and  
AUDIO R).  
– OR –  
B. If your TV doesn’t have audio/video input jacks, you need to use an RF modulator (not included).

VIDEO jacks on the back of the decoder. Then use a coaxial cable to connect the Out to TV jack  
on the modulator to your TV’s antenna in jack (sometimes labeled CABLE/ANTENNA).  
Notes:  
If your TV has an S-Video input, we recommend you make the video connection by using this jack instead. Remember to  
connect audio cables for this connection as S-Video only carries the picture signal, not the sound.  
If you have any problems with the picture quality, you may want to connect the decoder directly to your TV. You won’t be

Chapter 2: Remote Control  
Using the INPUT Button  
Use the INPUT button to scroll through the available Video Input Channel sources for a TV or VCR and  
regular broadcast signals. The Video Input Channels allow you to view images from a component  
connected to the TV or VCR (such as a camcorder or DVD player).  
1. Press the remote control’s TV or AUX button (if programmed) to enter the corresponding mode. Make  
sure the component is turned ON.  
2. Press the remote control’s INPUT button to tune to the Video Input Channel.  
3. To tune back to the broadcast signal you were previously watching through the TV or VCR, press the  
INPUT button again.  
Volume Punchthrough  
You may find this feature helpful if you’ve connected your components to an audio/video receiver (A/V  
receiver) or amplifier, but you want to use the decoder’s remote control to operate the volume.  
Let’s say you’ve connected your IP video decoder to your audio/video receiver. You’ve also programmed  
your decoder remote control to operate your receiver. Since the decoder gets its volume through the  
receiver, you would have to tell the remote you wanted to change the volume on the receiver each time  
by pressing the AUX button first. With Volume Punchthrough, you can control the receiver’s volume,  
even when the remote is in decoder mode. Just use the volume buttons as normal, and you’ll change the  
receiver’s volume automatically (or whatever volume component you used last).  
IMPORTANT: You must first program the AUX button on the decoder’s remote control to operate your audio  
receiver or amplifier. Go to page 14 for instructions. If you can’t program this remote to operate your audio  
receiver, Volume Punchthrough won’t work.

Chapter 2: Remote Control  
Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components  
The universal remote can be programmed to operate most brands of remote controllable components.  
The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE, and Proscan components.  
Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote  
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed for your component, turn the  
component ON. For example, to program the remote for a TV, turn on the TV. Point the remote at the TV,  
and press the TV button. Then press ON•OFF or CH + (channel up) or CH – (channel down) to see if the  
TV responds to the remote commands. If the component does not respond, the remote needs to be  
programmed.  
Programming the Remote  
There are two ways to program the remote control: direct entry and automatic code search.  
Using Direct Entry  
1. Turn on the component to be programmed.  
Important  
You must continue pressing the component  
button while you enter the code.  
2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the component  
on the code list in this section.  
Let’s say you have a Zenith TV. To program the  
universal remote to operate the TV, you would:  
3. Press and hold the component button you want to  
program on the remote (TV or AUX).  
Press and hold the TV button while you enter  
the first code listed for Zenith in the TV Codes  
column.  
4. Enter the 4-digit code from the remote control code list  
on the following pages. If the indicator flashes, you have  
either entered an invalid code or the button isn’t  
programmable.  
Release the TV button. Press ON•OFF to see if  
the TV responds. If it doesn’t, follow the same  
steps, but enter the second code for Zenith TVs  
instead of the first.  
5. Release the component button, point the remote at the  
component, then press ON•OFF to see if the component  
responds to the command. If it doesn’t, try pressing the  
component button and then ON•OFF again.  
If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next  
code listed for your brand, until the component responds  
to the remote commands.  
Note  
Some of the remote’s buttons might operate  
differently for other components, especially  
when you’re using another component’s menu  
system.  
If you try all the codes for your component brand and  
none work, try the automatic code search method. If  
automatic code search doesn’t work, the remote is not  
compatible with your component.

You can program the remote to operate your TV. To stop the  
automatic code search without programming your TV, press  
EXIT•CLEAR until the indicator on the remote turns off.  
Note: AUX can’t be programmed using the automatic code search  
method.  
Indicator  
1. Turn on your TV.  
2. Press and hold the TV button. While holding TV, press and hold  
ON•OFF until the indicator on the remote turns on, then release  
both buttons.  
EXIT•CLEAR  
3. Point the remote at the TV. Press and release PLAY, then wait 5  
seconds or until the indicator on the remote stops flashing.  
REV•REPLAY PLAY  
STOP  
At this point the remote is searching for the correct code to  
program. If, after 5 seconds, the TV does not turn off, press PLAY  
again to search the next set of codes.  
Use these buttons when  
you program the remote.  
Continue pressing PLAY until the TV turns off or you have  
searched through all of the codes. There are 20 total sets of codes.  
If the TV does not turn off after pressing PLAY 20 times, then the  
remote can’t be programmed to operate it.  
Important: The remote may not be  
compatible with all models of all  
brands of components. It may not  
operate all functions of the remote  
that came with your component.  
If the TV does turn off:  
1. Press and release REVERSE, then wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step  
until it turns back ON.  
2. Press and hold STOP until the indicator on the remote turns off.  
Note: If you need to replace the  
batteries in the remote, don’t  
press any buttons. If you do,  
you’ll have to reprogram the  
remote.  
How to Use the Remote After You’ve Programmed It  
Because this universal remote can control several different components (TV, DVD, VCR, A/V receiver) it  
uses operational modes triggered by the component buttons. For example, if you want the remote to  
control the TV, press the TV button to put the remote into TV mode.  
1. Press the appropriate component button (TV, AUX, VIDEO, Web, etc.) to set the remote to control the  
component.  
2. Press ON•OFF to turn the component ON or OFF.  
3. Use the remote buttons that apply to that component.  
Notes:  
The remote may not be compatible with all brands and models of components. It also may not operate  
all functions of the remote that came with your component.  
If you keep pressing buttons and nothing happens, the remote is probably in the wrong mode. You  
must press the component button that matches the component you want to operate (i.e., if you want  
to operate the TV, press TV on the remote control to put the remote in TV mode.)

Using the Remote Control to Choose On-screen Menu Items  
The technical term is “Navigation” – how you move through the on-screen menus. The theory is the  
same throughout the menu screens: highlight your choice and select it.  
To highlight a menu item, press the arrow buttons on the remote or the keyboard. Use the up or down  
arrow button to move up or down. Use the right or left arrow button to move left or right.  
To select the item that you’ve highlighted, press OK•SELECT.  
For easier menu and web navigation, check with your service provider about purchasing the optional  
wireless keyboard.  
Note: Highlighted means that the menu item stands out from the other menu items on the list (appears darker, brighter,  
or a different color).  
Using the On-Screen Keyboard  
The on-screen keyboard is a keyboard that appears on the screen to help you enter text on web pages or  
menus. The navigation of the keyboard is very similar to remote control navigation in the menus: you  
highlight the key you want to enter with the arrow buttons and press OK to select it.  
To bring up the on-screen keyboard to enter text, press the KEYBD button when a text box is  
selected. When you’re finished typing the text, press KEYBD to enter it (it works the same as the  
Enter button on the virtual keyboard).  
To exit the on-screen keyboard, highlight the EXIT button on the keyboard using the arrow buttons,  
and press OK to select it.  
If you have an optional wireless keyboard, using it to enter text will also make the on-screen keyboard  
disappear.  
The on-screen keyboard.  
Shift, Alt, Ctrl Keys  
These keys can be used in combination with other keys, just like on a standard keyboard. These keys are  
only applied to the next character you type. A light on the key indicates when it’s active.  
Shortcut Keys  
and are added to the text box when selected.

Troubleshooting  
You can correct most problems you have with your product by consulting the troubleshooting list  
that follows. If you need service, please contact your service provider.  
Decoder Problems  
Decoder won’t turn on  
Press the VIDEO button.  
Make sure the decoder is plugged in.  
Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure it is “live” by plugging in something else.  
Something might be wrong with your remote control or keyboard. Check the remote control solutions  
on the next page.  
Decoder appears to be locked up  
Hold the ON•OFF button on the remote until the indicator on the front of the unit blinks 5 times. The  
unit reboots.  
Verify the Power indicator is not flashing (slowly first, then blinks fast). If it is, there may be a broken  
connection to the service provider or service may be momentarily unavailable. Contact your service  
provider.  
Unplug the unit for a few seconds, then plug it back in and try again.  
No sound, picture okay  
Maybe the sound is muted. Try pressing the volume up button to restore sound on the TV or audio  
receiver.  
If using a standard video or S-video, video connection, remember to also connect the decoder’s L and  
R AUDIO OUT jacks to the component’s L and R AUDIO IN jacks.  
Try changing channels.  
Check the digital audio settings if you’re using the decoder’s digital optical jack.  
No picture, no sound but decoder is on  
If your decoder is connected to the CABLE/ANTENNA jack on your TV with a coaxial cable, tune the TV  
to channel 3 or 4.  
If your decoder is connected to your TV with audio/video cables, tune your TV to the appropriate Video  
Input Channel (see page 26).  
Sound okay, picture poor  
Check connections. Make sure all of the cables are firmly connected to the jacks.  
Change the channel.  
No connection after more than 5 minutes  
Make sure all connections are secure and try connecting to your service provider again. If you still  
have problems connecting to the network, contact your service provider.  
“Signal is Temporarily Unavailable” appears  
Change channels to see if it is a station problem. If it appears on more than one channel, there may be  
a problem with the signal. Reboot the decoder by holding the ON•OFF button on the remote until the  
indicator on the front of the unit blinks 5 times. The unit reboots. You may also want to unplug the  
unit.  
While connecting, the decoder seems to be stuck on one step for a long time  
Check the status of the indicator on the front of the decoder. If it is flashing, there is no connection  
between the decoder and the modem. Make sure the modem is on and the modem and decoder are  
connected properly. There may be a broken connection to the service provider or service may be  
momentarily unavailable. Contact your service provider.

Chapter 4: Additional Information  
Remote Control or Wireless Keyboard Problems  
Something might be between the remote or keyboard and the remote sensor on the component. Make  
sure there is a clear path.  
Maybe the remote isn’t aimed directly at the component (TV or decoder) that you’re trying to operate.  
Maybe remote or keyboard is not in a decoder mode. Press the VIDEO button to operate the decoder.  
Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead, or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote. (Note,  
if you remove the batteries, you may have to reprogram the remote to operate other components.) Don’t  
press any buttons when removing the batteries.  
Operate the remote control or wireless keyboard at a distance of no more than 20 feet.  
You might need to drain the remote’s microprocessor: remove batteries and press the number 1 button for  
at least 60 seconds. Release the 1 button, replace the batteries, and (if necessary) program the remote  
again.  
Care and Cleaning  
CAUTION: Unplug your decoder before cleaning.  
You can clean the unit as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the  
ventilation slots in the cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.  
Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive powder. These types of  
cleaners will damage the unit.  
Never place drinks or vases with water on top of the unit. This could increase the risk of fire or shock  
hazard or damage to the decoder.  
Service Information  
If you purchased or leased your IP video decoder directly from your service provider, then warranty  
service for the decoder may be provided through your service provider or its authorized representative.  
For information on Ordering Service, Obtaining Customer Support, or Additional Service Information,  
please contact your service provider.
