If the terminal was previously used, clear its hard drive before installing it at a new subscriber location. Cold Reset Procedure This section describes the Cold Reset procedure for Motorola’s DCX3510-M set-top. The cold reset is generally used by operational and field personnel to accomplish the following: Restore the set-top to a known state.
Installation Clearing the Hard Drive On a previously-used cable terminal, delete all recorded programs from the hard drive before installing it at a new subscriber location. This prevents the new subscriber from viewing programming they may not have purchased or may not want to see. To prevent subscribers from accidentally deleting all of their recorded programs, a specific set of keystrokes is required to clear the hard drive.
Installation Video Connection Options Use the following guidelines to determine the best video connection for the subscriber home entertainment system. To determine the available video inputs on the TV, check the manual supplied with the TV or the TV itself. The DCX3510-M offers the following video outputs: Connection Type TV Type...
This is important when the subscriber has another A/V device such as a DVD player, secondary VCR, CD player, or other electronic component. Motorola recommends connecting the TV to the monitor output so on-screen menus for the receiver can be displayed.
Installation Installation Overview 1. Determine if you are connecting to a: a. High-Definition TV or monitor: Use the component video (YPbPr), HDMI, or IEEE-1394 outputs. No other video connection supports HDTV. If the TV has a DVI input, connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or cable to the HDMI out connector on the DCX set-top instead of the IEEE-1394 connection and the DVI-HDTV connector on the TV.
Installation Connecting an HDTV — Single Connection for Video/Audio This section describes steps to connection the DCX to an HDTV using connection options that combine video and audio into a single cable. Cable In Connect an RF coaxial cable to the cable wall outlet and the cable in connector on the DCX set-top.
Installation Figure 4: Connecting an HDTV — Single Connection for Video/Audio Note: Only (1) HDTV video/audio connection needs to be made to an HDTV. Note: On-screen graphics will not be displayed when using IEEE-1394 connection. Refer Graphics Overlaying the Video for more information.
Installation Connecting an HDTV — Separate Video/Audio Connections Cable In Connect an RF coaxial cable to the cable wall outlet and the cable in connector on the DCX set-top. If the TV has a DVI input, use the DVI connection for the video: Connect a HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable to the HDMI out connector on the DCX set- top and the DVI-HDTV connector on the TV.
Installation Figure 5: Connecting an HDTV — Separate Video/Audio Connections Note: If the receiver can check the baseband and digital audio (S/PDIF) ports for appropriate channels, connect both the baseband and digital audio connections. Otherwise, do not connect both the baseband left/right composite connections and the coaxial digital connection.
Installation Connecting an A/V Receiver — Audio There are several options available for audio connections to the A/V receiver: Digital audio (OPTICAL S/PDIF) Stereo audio (AUDIO L and R) optical S/PDIF If the A/V receiver supports it, the digital audio output may be used in audio L place of the stereo audio outputs ( ).
