6. Getting Started
6.1 Connecting the TVSmart
Connect
Connect the TVSmart to an available HDMI port on your TV. If the design of the TV, or cables going into other HDMI ports prevent the TVSmart from being inserted correctly, use the supplied HDMI adapter to resolve the problem.
Tune In
Select the correct HDMI input on your TV, using the TV’s remote control. Please see your TV manual for more information on how to do this.
Switch On
Connect the supplied USB cable to the TVSmart and then to the supplied Power Adapter. The
TVSmart doesn’t have a physical power button, so to turn it on, all you have to do is plug it
into a power source and it will automatically start to boot.
Note: You must not plug the TVSmart into any HDMI port on a TV if the TVSmart is already switched on, or is still connected to its power adapter. HDMI devices can transmit power through the HDMI connector, and this could cause damage to your TV if a power surge occurs when a powered device is plugged in. Damage caused in this way is not warranted by the TV manufacturer or CnM.

Troubleshooting Display Problems
The TVSmart is turned on, but the TV detects no signal:
Make sure the TVSmart is securely and firmly connected to the HDMI port of your TV.
If the TVSmart isn’t connected to the TV using the supplied HDMI Adapter, then
power it off and disconnect the power, remove it from the HDMI port and plug it in using the supplied adapter instead.
If the TVSmart is connected to the TV using the supplied HDMI adapter, check that it
is securely and firmly connected to the HDMI port of your TV. Also check that the TVSmart is securely and firmly connected to the HDMI adapter.
Move the TVSmart so that it is connected to another HDMI port on the TV (ideally a
known working port). Ensure the TVSmart is off and disconnected from its power adapter before moving it.
Make sure that the correct HDMI source input option is selected on your TV.

6.2 Startup
Once the device has finished booting, you will be presented with the TVSmart Home Screen which gives you easy access to all the applications which come pre-installed on the device.
Note: When you power up the TVSmart for the first time, please be patient because it will take a few minutes to configure itself, so performance will be a bit slow during this time.
You will now be at the default home screen.
6.3 Connecting the Air Mouse
In order to control the TVSmart you must connect the Air Mouse to it, the first time it is used.
1. Move the Air Mouse to within 20 centimetres of the TVSmart.
2. Press the Return button and the Enter button together for 2 seconds.
During the connection process, the orange light on the side of the Air Mouse will flash every 0.3 of a second, and will then stay lit for 2 seconds and turn off when the connection has succeeded.
If synchronization fails, the orange light will keep on flashing. If this happens, try removing the USB Dongle from the back of the TVSmart and then re-inserting it. Then try stages 1 and 2 again.

6.8 Connecting to a Wireless Network
Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that can provide Internet access at distances of up to 100 meters, depending on the Wi-Fi router and your surroundings. To use Wi-Fi, you need to connect to your wireless router or access point.

Wi-Fi networks and display the names of those it finds. Secured networks are indicated with a Lock icon. If the TVSmart finds a network that you connected to previously, it will automatically connect to it.
3. Find the right network and select it by clicking the correct name. If the network is
secured, you are prompted to enter a password. Make sure you enter the correct password, otherwise the TVSmart will not be able to connect to the network.

4. Where can the correct password be found?
If you are connecting to a Wireless Network which is provided by a router which has been supplied by BT, Sky etc. then the password will be printed on a sticker on the unit. Please ensure that you enter any letters using the correct case. Uppercase letters must be entered in uppercase and lowercase letters must be lowercase.
If the router doesn’t have a sticker showing the password, you will have to ask whoever
setup the wireless network to provide you with the correct password to connect to the network.
Once finished, the TVSmart will now be connected to the network. Once connected, you will see the wireless icon in status bar.

Add a Wi-Fi network
If your wireless network does not broadcast its name (SSID), or you are outside the range of a Wi-Fi network, you can still add a Wi-Fi network so your TVSmart will remember it, along with any security credentials, which will allow it to connect automatically when in range. To do this:
1. Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.
2. Click Add Network at the top of the screen.
3. Enter the SSID (name) of the network. If necessary, enter security or other network
configuration details.
4. Click Save.
The information about the network is saved. Your TVSmart will connect to this network automatically the next time you come within range.
Forget a Wi-Fi network
You can make the TVSmart forget about the details of a Wi-Fi network that you added, if you no longer use it.
1. Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.
2. In the Wi-Fi settings screen, click the name of the network.
3. Click Forget in the dialog that opens.
Configure proxy settings for a Wi-Fi network
Some networks require you to connect to internal or external network resources via a proxy server. By default, the Wi-Fi networks you add are not configured to connect via a proxy, but you can change that for each Wi-Fi network you've added.
1. In the Wi-Fi settings screen, click and hold the name of the network.
2. Click Modify network in the dialog that opens.
3. Select Show advanced options.
4. If the network has no proxy settings, click None under Proxy Settings. If it does, click
Manual in the menu that opens.
5. Enter the proxy settings supplied by your network administrator.
6. Click Save.
The proxy settings apply only to the Wi-Fi network you modified. To change the proxy settings for other Wi-Fi networks, modify them individually.

8.3 Gmail / Google Play Store
In order to use Gmail to access your Google Mail account or Google Play to download more Apps or Games for your TVSmart, you will either have to setup a Google Account or enter the details for an existing Google Account the first time you want to use one of these applications.
Note: The Gmail application cannot be used to connect to any email service other than Google Mail.
A Google Account has many benefits because it lets you organise and access your personal information from any computer or mobile device:
Never lose your contacts again. When you sign in to your TVSmart with a Google
account, all the contacts you associate with that account in the People app are automatically backed up. As a result, they're always accessible through your Gmail account from any computer.
Synchronize and back up everything. Whether you draft an email, add an event to
your calendar, or take a photo, your work gets backed up continuously by Google and synchronized with any computer where you use the same Google Account.
Access from anywhere. Check your latest calendar, email, text messages, or social
stream, wherever you are, no matter what computer or mobile device you are using.
Keep your data secure and available. Google works round the clock to protect your
personal data from unauthorized access and to ensure that you get it when you need it, wherever you need it.
Use other Google services. Your Google Account also lets you take full advantage of
any other Google apps and services that you may want to use, such as Gmail, YouTube, Google Play, YouTube, Google Talk, Messaging, and many more.
To enter details for an existing account click the Existing option, or to create a new Google Account click the New option and follow the straightforward setup process.
