Note: If you encounter any problems setting up your product, please contact your local retailer helpline.

7.1 Connecting the Antenna 1. Connect one or two satellite coaxial cable from the wall to LNB IN. 2. Connect a cable/terrestrial coaxial cable to AERIAL IN. Note: Cable and terrestrial can't concurrence. Connecting the TV 1. TV with the HDMI connector: For the best picture quality, connect the product and TV using an HDMI cable. 2. TV with the AV connector: To output video and audio, connect the product and TV using an AV cable. Note: 1. Connecting your TV directly to the audio/video output of the product will assure a more vivid picture and enhance your viewing enjoyment. Connecting to the LAN: Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the product and the other end to the LAN router. TV with Motorized System (DiSEqC 1.2) Connect one end of your coaxial cable to the LNB IN connector on the Xfinder and the other end to the REC or Xfinder connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor. Connect the coaxial cable from the LNB to the LNB connector on the DiSEqC 1.2 motor. All our Xfinders are designed to be DiSEqC 1.0 and DiSEqC 1.2 compatible. This allows multiple antennas to be connected to the Xfinder at the same time. If you have two or more fixed antennas or LNBs, then we recommend you use a DiSEqC 1.0 switch. Connect the coaxial cable from the first LNB to the LNB 1 or LNB A input connector of the DiSEqC switch. Do the same for any other LNBs that you have. Connect one end of a coaxial cable to the RF output connector of the DiSEqC switch, connect the other end to the LNB IN socket on the Xfinder. To the digital Xfinder, you can connect either a single satellite antenna directly or LNB of multi-feed equipment.
