3. Installation of UNIBOX HD ECO+
This chapter will guide you through the whole installation process of UNIBOX HD ECO+. Please read each section
carefully to make sure that the system runs properly.
3.1 Connecting Satellite Cables
UNIBOX HD ECO+ is integrated with triple satellite tuners, and one of the first steps is to connect satellite cable(s) to
UNIBOX HD ECO+ in order to gain optimal signal quality. You can either choose one of the following connection
methods depending on the equipment you have.
A. Two Separate Satellite Cables
In case you have three separate satellite cables providing different broadcast signals, you can configure TUNER1,
TUNER2, Input independently.
B. Connecting TV via HDMI Cable
For the sake of the best picture quality, especially for digital TV, HDMI connection is recommended. Most HDTVs
have HDMI connectors to ensure the highest picture quality. In the rear panel of UNIBOX HD ECO+ one HDMI
connector is available for this purpose. Connect your TV to UNIBOX HD ECO+ using a HDMI cable.
C. Connecting TV via Component Cable
The secondly recommend TV connection for digital TV is via component cable (YPbPr). However, unlike the HDMI
connection which delivers audio and video signal at the same time, YPbPr connection requires additional audio
connection either via RCA cable
(Stereo L/R) or S/PDIF.
NOTE: When you have an A/V receiver with S/PDIF digital audio input, this connection is
recommended to enjoy the best audio quality, especially for the Dolby Digital sound.
D. Connecting TV via RCA (Video) Cable
UNIBOX HD ECO+ provides Composite video connection as well. Composite cable has normally three connectors at
the both end; one Video (Yellow) and two Audio (White/Red). Connect your TV to UNIBOX HD ECO+.
E. Connecting TV (and VCR) SCART Cable
In case your TV is analogue TV, SCART cable is the most common method. Connect your TV to UNIBOX HD ECO+
using SCART cable.
