Before You Begin
Before you move or change components on the subscriber’s entertainment system:
•Review the installation instructions.
•Determine if you are connecting to a standard analog NTSC TV (supporting an RF input), a composite (baseband) video input, or a High-Definition TV (supporting component video input, HDMI™ input, or an IEEE-1394 input).
•Determine if the subscriber has other equipment to be connected to the terminal (home theater or A/V receiver, VCR, etc.).
•Verify that you have the necessary cables and other required items.
Cold Reset Procedure
This section describes the Cold Reset procedure for Motorola’s DCX3200 set-top. The cold reset is generally used by operational and field personnel to accomplish the following:
•Restore the set-top to a known state.
•Clear channel maps and application settings.
•Remove application and software objects above the platform code.
•Clear the Out of Band (OOB) Last Known Carrier (LKC) and force the units to hunt for a new OOB control channel.
Cold Reset Method
1.Remove the set-top from its packaging.
2.Plug in a serial connector to the DCX3200 and open a terminal window.
3.AC power cycle the set-top.
4.When the words “Waiting for IR…” appear in the terminal window, press the Volume Down (–) button on the remote control.

3 INSTALLATION
Video Connection Options
Use the following guidelines to determine the best video connection for the subscriber’s home entertainment system. To determine the available video inputs on the TV, check the manual supplied with the TV or the TV itself.
The DCX3200 offers the following video outputs:
Component |
HDTV and |
The YPbPr output provides three component analog video signals |
(YPbPr) |
SDTV |
to the TV. It is the most widely supported HD video connection. |
|
|
|
HDMI™ |
HDTV and |
HDMI™ and IEEE-1394 provide higher-quality digital HD video |
or |
SDTV |
signals than analog component video signals. If the TV has an |
IEEE-1394 |
|
HDMI™ or a DVI input, use the HDMI™ output instead of the |
|
|
IEEE-1394 output. |
|
|
HDMI™ and IEEE-1394 are video and audio connections. If you |
|
|
use HDMI™ or IEEE-1394, no separate audio connection to the TV |
|
|
is required. |
|
|
HDMI™ is compatible with DVI. If the TV has a DVI input, you can |
|
|
use an HDMI-to-DVI converter cable or adapter to connect the DVI- |
|
|
equipped TV to the HDMI-equipped DCX3200. |
|
|
If you use the IEEE-1394 connection, you will be unable to see on- |
|
|
screen graphics (such as the EPG). |
|
|
|
S-Video |
SDTV only |
If the TV has an S-Video input, use S-Video. S-Video is the highest- |
|
|
quality Standard-Definition video output on the DCX3200. |
|
|
|
Video |
SDTV only |
If the TV does not have an S-Video input, use the composite video |
(composite) |
|
(video) output. |
|
|
|
RF |
SDTV only |
If the TV only has a coaxial RF input, connect it to the DCX3200 |
|
|
RF out connector. |
|
|
|

3 INSTALLATION
Audio Connection Options
When connecting to a home theater receiver, depending on its inputs, you can use the following DCX3200 audio outputs:
HDMI |
Unlike a DVI connection, an HDMI™ connection is capable of carrying |
|
digital video and audio signals to the TV or a home theater receiver |
|
equipped with HDMI™ switching support. |
|
The HDMI™ connection can deliver Dolby® Digital Plus, Dolby® Digital, |
|
Linear PCM, and other digital audio formats to a compatible TV or home |
|
theater receiver. |
|
|
Digital audio |
If the TV or home theater receiver supports it, use either the S/PDIF |
optical (S/PDIF) or |
digital audio optical or S/PDIF digital audio coaxial outputs to deliver |
digital audio |
Dolby® Digital and Linear PCM audio to a Dolby® Digital home theater |
coaxial (S/PDIF) |
receiver. |
|
• For an HDMI™ or IEEE-1394 video connection, no additional audio |
|
connections to the TV are required. |
|
• For RF output, no further audio connection is required. |
|
|
Baseband Audio |
If the audio receiver does not support Dolby® Digital, use the baseband |
L / R |
AUDIO L and R outputs to connect to the audio receiver. |
|
|
Connect the stereo audio cable to the AUDIO L and R connectors on the DCX3200 and the audio left and right connectors on the TV. If the equipment supports it, use either the optical S/PDIF or coaxial digital S/PDIF output (there is no difference in audio quality between the two) instead of the AUDIO L and R outputs. These outputs offer better audio quality, including support for Dolby® Digital 5.1 Surround Sound.
The cabling diagrams show audio/video (A/V) connections to an audio receiver, where the receiver functions as an A/V router. When connecting to an audio receiver, reference its installation guide for directions on connecting to baseband and digital audio ports.
The VCR and TV receive their A/V signals from the currently selected input device on the audio receiver. This is important when the subscriber has another A/V device such as a DVD player, a secondary VCR, a CD player, or other electronic component. Motorola recommends connecting the TV to the monitor output so on-screen menus for the receiver can be displayed. (Receivers themselves often have interactive on-screen menus.)
Installation Overview
1. Determine if you are connecting to a:
High-Definition |
Use the component video (YPbPr), HDMI, or IEEE-1394 outputs. No other |
TV or monitor |
video connection supports HDTV. |
|
If the TV has a DVI input, connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or cable to the |
|
HDMI™ out connector on the DCX set-top instead of the IEEE-1394 |
|
connection and the DVI-HDTV connector on the TV. |
|
|
Standard- |
Connect the S-Video connector using an S-video cable or connect the |
Definition TV |
composite video connector using a composite (RCA phono) cable. If the |
|
TV only has a coaxial RF input, connect it to the DCX3200 RF OUT |
|
connector. |
|

2.Determine if you are connecting the audio to a home theater receiver or directly to the TV:
•For an HDMI™ or IEEE-1394 video connection, no additional audio connections to the TV are required.
•If the receiver or TV has a digital audio (S/PDIF) input, use the digital audio
OPTICAL (S/PDIF) or COAXIAL (S/PDIF) outputs.
•Otherwise, use the baseband left and right audio outputs.
3.Locate the cabling diagram(s) that best match the subscriber’s configuration.
4.Connect the audio and video cables in a manner matching that diagram.
5.Determine if you are connecting to a data device (see Data Device Connections in this section). For installation details, refer to the instructions included with the data device.
6.Connect the cable terminal to the coaxial cable wall outlet.
7.Perform the operational check for the remote control.
8.Optimize the High-Definition settings.
Connecting HDTV — Single Connection for Video/Audio
Cable-In
Connect an RF coaxial cable to the cable wall outlet and the CABLE IN connector on the DCX set-top.
HDMI
If the TV has an HDMI™ input, this is for both audio and video if you are using the TV speakers. Connect a Standard HDMI™ cable to the TV and to the HDMI™ connect on the DCX set-top.
IEEE-1394
If the HDTV has an IEEE-1394 connector, you can use the IEEE-1394 for both the video and audio connection:
•Connect an IEEE-1394 cable to the IEEE-1394 connector on the HDTV and DCX settop.

3 INSTALLATION
Connecting HDTV — Separate Video/Audio Connections
Cable In
Connect an RF coaxial cable to the cable wall outlet and the Cable In connector on the DCX set-top.
DVI
If the TV has a DVI input, use the DVI connection for the video:
•Connect a HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable to the HDMI™ out connector on the DCX set-top and the DVI connector on the TV.
Note: A DVI connection supports only the video connection between the DCX set-top and the HDTV. To connect your audio connections with your TV speakers, go to Audio section below. To connect the audio connections for an A/V receiver, go to Connecting the DCX Set-top to an A/V Receiver — Audio.
Component Video (YPbPr)
Connect the component video cables to the Y, Pb, and Pr connectors on the HDTV and the DCX set-top.
Note: This connection supports only the high-definition video connection between the DCX set-top and the HDTV. To connect your audio connections with your TV speakers, go to Audio section below. To connect the audio connections for the HDTV, go to Connecting the DCX Set-top to an A/V Receiver — Audio.
Audio
If the TV does not have digital audio inputs:
•Connect the stereo audio cable to the AUDIO L and R connectors on the DCX3200 Series set-top and the audio left and audio right connectors on the HDTV.
If the TV supports a digital audio input:
•If the equipment supports it, use the digital audio OPTICAL S/PDIF or COAXIAL S/PDIF outputs instead of the AUDIO L and R outputs. S/PDIF offers better audio quality, including support for Dolby® Digital audio.
For more information on configuring the DCX setup-top settings, see Configuring Audio, Video, and Closed Caption Settings.

Note: If the receiver can check the baseband and digital audio (S/PDIF) ports for appropriate channels, connect both the baseband and digital audio connections. Otherwise, do not connect both the baseband left/right composite connections and the coaxial digital connection. The baseband connections are not necessary because the digital audio port provides a single audio interface for digital channels.
Note: If the A/V receiver includes HDMI™ inputs & output(s) then the DCX3200 HDMI™ output can be directly connected to the A/V receiver.

3 INSTALLATION
Connecting an A/V Receiver — Audio
There are several options available for audio connections to the A/V receiver:
•Digital audio (OPTICAL S/PDIF)
•Digital audio (COAXIAL S/PDIF)
•Stereo audio (AUDIO L and R)
If the A/V receiver supports it, the optical (S/PDIF) or coaxial (S/PDIF) audio outputs may be used in place of the stereo audio outputs (AUDIO L and R). These outputs offer a higher level of audio quality, including support for Dolby® Digital audio.
•Digital audio optical (S/PDIF) — Connect the optical cable to the digital audio optical connector on the DCX set-top and the optical connector on the A/V receiver.
•Digital audio coaxial (S/PDIF) — Connect the digital audio cable to the digital audio connector on the DCX set-top and the DIGITAL INPUT COAX connector on the A/V receiver.
•Stereo audio — Connect the stereo audio cable to the AUDIO L and R connectors on the DCX set-top and the AUDIO LEFT and AUDIO RIGHT connectors on the A/V receiver.
For information on configuring the DCX set-top settings, see Configuring the Audio, Video, and Closed Caption Settings.
