Hard disc installation for upgrading the DXR 8000
1. Disconnect the mains plug.
2. Unscrew the four screws on top of the device.
3. Set the hard disc's jumper (c) to position MASTER (MA). Please check the hard disc's manual if
the setting of the jumper is not clearly described!
4. Connect both, the 40-pin male connector (b) and the 4-pole power connector (a) with the hard
disc. Ensure the connectors are aligned properly and firmly connected!
5. Close the cover and turn the device on.
6. Initialising/formatting of the hard disc may take several minutes.
Note: A variety of the most common IDE hard discs (40 - 240 GB) were used to test the DXR 8000.
We would like to point out that not all commercially available hard discs are suitable for the PVR use,
e.g. IDE hard discs having very high power consumption or discs requiring a high starting current are
not recommended. Generally speaking, SATA hard discs are not suitable! SM ELECTRONIC GmbH
can not be held responsible for any damages resulting from improper installation!
