    FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Setting up the video bridge is easy. Connect it to a free coax line, and if needed disconnect the terminator cap and run a coax line to another receiver. (Otherwise keep the cap in place.) Connect it to the power adapter and plug it in. Withing a moment the light on the front should start flashing blue.

    WHAT CAN GO WRONG? If the client pairs properly the network light on the front of the receiver will glow solid green. If it is flashing yellow or solid yellow, that means the connection is too weak to use. In a case like that it may not pair properly, or it may work very slowly. The best thing to do at that point is reposition the video bridge.
