1. CONNECT BISCOTTI TO TV

The first setup step is connecting Biscotti to your TV. As 
part of this step do not mount Biscotti to the top of your 
TV. You will mount Biscotti to the TV later, when it is 
powered on and you can use Biscotti’s camera to point 
it where you like best.

 Select the option below that applies to you:

Option 1 - Preferred

If your cable or satellite box connects to your TV using an 
HDMI cable:

a)  On the back of your TV, find the HDMI cable coming 

from your cable or satellite box. Remember the connec-
tor location on the back of your TV, as it will be used 
again in step b. Unplug the HDMI cable coming from 
your cable or satellite box from the back of the TV and 
plug it into Biscotti’s port marked “

HDMI IN

”.

b)  Using the HDMI cable that came with Biscotti, plug one 

end of the cable into the HDMI port on the back of the 

TV that was originally connected to your cable or satel-
lite box. Plug the other end of the cable into Biscotti’s 
port marked “

HDMI OUT

”. 

Tip:  This  option  allows  Biscotti  to  overlay  incoming  calls 
and other messages over live TV. 

c)  Connect the power adapter to Biscotti and plug it into 

a power outlet.

Option 2

If your cable or satellite box does not connect to your TV 
using an HDMI cable:

a)  Using the supplied HDMI cable, connect  “HDMI OUT” 

on Biscotti to the an available HDMI port on your TV.

b)  Connect the power adapter to Biscotti and plug it into 

a power outlet.

Tip: If you followed Option 2, you will need to use the TV 
remote  control  to  switch  between  the  TV  and  Biscotti 
when you want to make or receive a video calls.
