Set-Top Boxes
The STB-04 (
FG3100-65
) Set-Top Box supports viewing live programming via a Producer channel, MPEG encoder, or DVB Tuner
channel. The set-top boxes access the Vision
2
server and display available programming on a connected video source. The set-top
boxes are used only for MPEG2 and MP3 content. They support viewing MPEG Video on Demand, but support only Stop, Play,
Pause, Fast Forward, and Rewind features.
NOTE:
The Set-Top Boxes have a limit of 18Mbps. Heavy traffic loads can cause the set-top box to reset itself periodically.
FIG. 11 displays the rear panel of the STB-04 Set-Top box.
NOTE:
Do not use the reset button on the back of your set-top box.
Configuring the Set-Top Box
Before a set-top box can be used to view a video source, it must be configured to access the Vision
2
server. Plug a USB keyboard
into the USB port on the front of the set-top box.
NOTE:
The set-top-box will need to be power cycled to allow it to recognize the keyboard.
Perform these steps to configure the set-top box:
1.
Connect the power supply to the power connector on the rear of the unit.
2.
Choose one of the following methods to connect the set-top box to audio and video sources:
Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI port on the set-top box to an HDMI port on the video source. HDMI also transmits
an audio signal in addition to video.
Use a breakout cable to connect the AUDIO VISUAL port on the set-top box to your audio and video sources. In place of
connecting the breakout cable to your audio source, you can connect an optical audio cable from the SPDIF port on the
set-top box to your audio source.
3.
Connect an RJ-45 LAN cable to LAN port 1 on the rear of the unit. The other end of the cable connects to your LAN. This
connection accesses your Vision
2
server and can be used to upload the latest firmware and Vision
2
menus to the set-top box.
