Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode

premium channels and pay-per-view. Using the programming

feature of your remote, you can connect your cable box so

that you only need your MBR Trakball remote to control all

the channels. By connecting cable directly to your

Entertainment Machine, then running it out to the cable box

and back, you make the cable box another source to choose

from in the Source menu (see page 22).

If you receive antenna through a

wire that is several years old and

connects with two small prongs,

you will need to purchase a 300

Ohm adapter. It should be avail-

able from your local

electronics dealer.

This is just a general room design.

Any number of set-ups are possible,

and some changes may be needed to

maximize your sound.

A left and right speaker on either

side of the Entertainment Machine

will create a “center channel,” making

the dialog sound as though it’s

coming directly from the

Entertainment Machine.

The rear surround sound speakers

provide the majority of other sounds,

like those from special effects in

movies. Your sub-woofer generates

ultra-low frequency sound, for

rumbling low-end audio.

Sound is affected by

speaker placement, so make

sure nothing is in front of the

speakers, and that they are

aimed in appropriate directions.

If your surround sound system

is on, but there’s no sound

from the speakers, the program

you’re watching might not be

broadcast in surround sound.

Use pages 6-12 to hook up your

Entertainment Machine. Plug in

your Entertainment Machine and

press the Power button on the

front panel. The Quick Start

screen will instantly appear, with

three steps you should follow if

you have not yet done so.

Remove the back of the remote

and put in three AAA batteries.

Make sure batteries are properly

installed (check the +/– signs).

Click ENTER on your remote to

continue the setup process.

Your choice will be to pick 1 or 2

(Antenna or Cable), depending on

the type of input signal you have.

You will then be prompted to press

3 on your number pad. Your

Entertainment Machine will now

search for all available channels,

and store them in its memory.
