Placement and Ventilation Requirements
IMPORTANT: Use an open cabinet for best operation of the HP Digital
Entertainment Center (DEC). Do not cover vents on top, back, or side
of unit.
Backs of cabinets should be open for best operation; if there is a back
to the cabinet, there must be a hole in the back of the cabinet with a
minimum open area of 19"W x 6.5"H behind the DEC, so that air can
circulate; see Figure A. The back of the DEC must be at least 4" from
the wall, see Figure B.

If you choose to use a cabinet with front doors, they must be left open
during your use of the DEC.
Failure to follow these ventilation requirements could result in the DEC
malfunctioning.

About ATSC antennas
About Connecting an ATSC Antenna
Over-the-air ATSC digital TV requires a UHF/VHF antenna (sold separately) to receive the digital signal.
Your location must be within an ATSC DTV broadcast area.
See the following illustrations to install ATSC DTV.
Refer to http://www.antennaweb.org (subject to change without notice) for more information about:
The channels available in your area. The channels may be color-coded by zone.
·
Selecting the kind of antenna you need, depending on the channels you want to receive. Match your
·
antenna to your zone.
The direction to point your antenna.
·
Positioning an HDTV antenna for best reception.
·
NOTE: You can also attach an internal or external roof VHF/UHF antenna to the HP Digital Entertainment Center to watch NTSC
channels. See the following illustrations.
Finding Your ATSC Channels
After you complete the Media Center and Digital TV setup wizards and then download your Television
Program Guide, the Guide may display incorrect ATSC DTV channels. Some channels may have an
incorrect channel number and other channels may not be displayed at all. These HDTV channels may be
available in your area, but they may not be listed in the Media Center Television Program Guide.
A more complete ATSC DTV channel guide may be available from third party providers, such as Titan TV.
See Online Spotlight for more information. See your other printed documentation for more information
about setting up these channels.
