Setting up the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge

To get started, connect an external USB hard drive to the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge via one of the USB 2.0 host ports or insert 

a 3.5” SATA hard disk drive (5400 rpm recommended) within its enclosure. See the User Manual for more information.

NOTE:

  The LaCinema Classic HD Bridge is compatible with NTFS and HFS+ non-journaled file systems.

3.5” SATA Hard Disk Drive Insertion (Optional):

 

1. Make sure the power cable is disconnected.

 

2. Turn the drive over. Please DO NOT insert anything into the socket as it houses the LED and may affect your warranty. 

 

3. Open the casing by gently wedging the included case opening tool into the seam between the bottom plate and 

 

    the top shell.

 

4. You may hear a slight “click” as the case opening tool’s angled extension grips the inside front of the metal casing.  

 

    This sound is normal.

 

5. Using the tool, remove the top shell. Turn the drive over. 

 

6. Slide the drive, label facing up, onto the bottom plate rails. The drive’s SATA connector plugs into the SATA port of the  

 

    LaCinema Classic HD Bridge.

 

7. Secure the disk drive in the casing by inserting the four included screws into the slots as indicated in the illustration.

 

8. Replace the top of the casing by first aligning the ports on the bottom plate with the cutouts on the top shell and then gently  

 

    press down. Please pay close attention to the connectors in the back of the device when replacing the top of the casing.

Step 1: Transferring files

 

A. Copy media files from your computer via the USB interface. You can use: 

 

    1. An external USB hard drive or key.

 

    2. The LaCinema Classic HD Bridge with a drive in the enclosure.

 

B. Plug the power supply into an AC outlet and connect the power cable to the external USB drive (if needed) or the 

 

    LaCinema Classic HD Bridge.

 

C. When the drive mounts on your computer, transfer or copy files to it.

 

D. When finished, unmount the drive safely.

Step 2: Connecting to your TV and home network 

 

A. Choose ONE of the following connection methods:      

 

 

 

    1. HDMI: Connect the HDMI cable to the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge and to your TV.

 

    2. Composite: Connect the yellow composite cable to your TV and to the corresponding connector on the LaCinema  

 

        Classic HD Bridge. Next, plug the white and red stereo audio cables to your TV and to the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge.  

 

        Optional: For multi-channel sound, you may connect the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge to a home theater system  

 

        through an optical audio cable (not included) or HDMI.

 

       

NOTE:

 If you place the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge in a confined place, make sure to provide adequate airflow to ensure it  

 

       does not overheat.

 

 

B. If you have an Ethernet network, connect the Ethernet cable from your router or hub to the Ethernet port on the back  

 

    of the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge. 

 

C. Plug the power supply into an AC outlet and connect the power cable to the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge. 

 

 

D. Turn on your TV. If you don’t see the loading screen, check the video input on your TV’s menu to make certain it  

 

    matches your video connection.

 

E. Using the LaCinema Classic HD Bridge remote control, follow the prompts offered by the Installation Wizard. 

 

    Press the OK button to confirm your selection and the Back button to go to the previous screen.
