Connecting the Symbio AVHD
recorder
The back of the Symbio AVHD recorder has two 6-pin
DTVLink/IEEE-1394 ports and one A/C power cord
connector. IEEE-1394 devices (such as your Toshiba integrated
HD television) can be connected to either DTVLink port on
the Symbio. Devices must be DTVLink-certified to send/receive
encrypted content.
To connect the Symbio AVHD recorder to the Toshiba
integrated HD television:
1. Connect the AC power cord to the back of the Symbio
AVHD recorder, and then plug the other end into an
AC outlet or surge protector.
2. Connect the smaller 4-pin end of the IEEE-1394 cable to
one of the IEEE-1394 (TheaterNet) ports on the Toshiba
integrated HD television.
3. Connect the larger 6-pin end of the IEEE-1394 cable to
either IEEE-1394 port on the Symbio AVHD recorder.
4. Turn on the television.
5.
Wait several minutes before using the Symbio AVHD
recorder
. If your Symbio AVHD recorder contains many
recordings, it can take several minutes before it is fully
initialized.
6. See Chapters 3 and 4 of this manual for details on
configuring and using your Symbio AVHD recorder.
