Adding digital video recorder (DVR) functionality
Your cable service-provider may enable a feature that allows an external hard disk to work with your
set-top. If this is the case, you can attach a hard disk to the SATA connector on your set-top’s rear
panel and use it to record and play back digital television programs (many more hours than if you
record using a VCR or DVD recorder). There is a
RECORD light on your set-top’s front panel to
show when recording is taking place. Most major brands of serial ATA hard disk are supported. You
should not connect an external hard disk to a 1394 port or the USB port.
The recordings on the external hard disk are uniquely linked to the set-top on which they were
made, so you cannot play them back or delete them with a different set-top.
Connecting an external hard disk
1. Turn off your set-top with the POWER button and then wait 60 seconds before disconnecting
it from the wall AC socket. (You must not “hot plug” an external hard disk).
2. Connect the external hard disk, using an appropriate cable, to the SATA connector on your set-
top.
3. Apply power to the external hard disk.
4. Reconnect your set-top to the wall AC socket and turn it on with the
POWER
button.
If the external disk needs formatting, your set-top will inform you by means of a pop-up dialog box on
your TV screen (see right).
5. Use the
arrow
and
select
buttons on your remote control to select YES, and the formatting will
begin.
