Typical System Installation

(see also Typical Setup Flow Charts on the previous pages)
1. Verify that each satellite STB is set up and functioning. Each STB should be powered up,
initialized, authorized, and displaying the default channel properly—refer to the manufacturer's
documentation.
Caution: Do NOT make any connections between the satellite STBs and the
PIVD100R until you have verified that the STBs are authorized and functioning
properly.
2. For each satellite STB: Connect one of the supplied CAT5E cables between one of the
X-Ports on the PIVD100R rear panel and the ETHERNET port on the satellite STB.
Note: Once you make the connection between a satellite STB and the PIVD100R, STB
front panel and remote control functionality may be limited. If necessary, to restore IR
remote usability, unplug the X-Port cable and reset the STB. (The STB/tuner channels will
be set later during the system setup.)
3. To enable remote management, connect one end of a CAT5 RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the
Control Port on the PIVD100R rear panel, and connect the other end of the cable to the
institution's network.
Caution: The subnet 192.168.0.x is reserved for STB communication and
cannot be used for the Control Port network subnet. This is the only restriction;
for example, you can use 192.168.1.x, 10.x.x.x, etc. Contact your service
representative for further information.
4. Connect the PIVD100R power supply to the POWER connector on the PIVD100R rear
panel. Then, plug the AC power cord into a powered AC line receptacle. When power is
applied, the PWR (Power) LED on the PIVD100R front panel will initially flash red and then
turn green.
The boot-up process for the PIVD100R may take up to 90 seconds. When boot-up is
complete, the STATUS LED on the PIVD100R front panel will light continuously green.
5. Once the STATUS LED is green, use the FTDI TTL-232R-5V-AJ cable to connect a PC to
the Service Port on the PIVD100R rear panel.
6. Using HyperTerminal or an equivalent terminal emulation program on the PC, configure the
serial port as follows: Bits per second/baud = 115200; Data bits = 8; Parity = None; Stop
bits = 1; Flow Control = None
Once the connection is established, you should see a login prompt. (If the login prompt is
not automatically displayed, press Enter to refresh the screen.)
7. At the login as: prompt, type admin and press Enter. Then, type the admin user
password (provided by LG) at the password: prompt.
