2. Putting It All Together

This section describes the basic connections you need to operate your set-top

box. Your HDS-600RS rear panel has connections for many types of audio

and video equipment as well as two Satellite LNB inputs. In particular, there

are connections for two types of video output:

 TV with HDMI input

 TV, Video and DVD appliances with SCART connectors

There are also connections for two types of audio output and USB ports for

connecting memory sticks.

Satellite Inputs

The HDS-600RS is designed to use two satellite LNB inputs. It will operate

with a single input but many of the advanced functions will not be available. If

you intend to use a single input ensure that it is connected to LNB1 (see

page 8). We strongly advise that two feeds are connected.

Your satellite dish should be aligned to the Astra 2 satellite at 28.2„E.

Connecting to the Internet

The HDS-600RS is designed to work with a wired Ethernet connection. If your

router is not in the same room as your HDS-600RS you can used a pair of

‘Power-line’ devices (for example: Sling Link, see www.myechostar.com for

details) which use the home electrical wiring to carry the Ethernet signal.

Before connecting an Ethernet cable to the HDS-600RS, unplug the HDS-

600RS from the mains. With the connection to your network in place,

reconnect your HDS-600RS to the mains. It may take the HDS-600RS a few

minutes to start up the first time it is connected to the router.
