INTRODUCTION
RG2400
Beneath the compact and stylish exterior of the RG2400 is a powerful media delivery system. The RG2400 is
different from other video boxes that you may have encountered. Some competitor boxes are designed to
deliver one video/audio channel to a single TV and/or VCR device. In contrast, the compact RG2400 delivers
the functionality of two or three high-quality digital video boxes in a single p ackage. Depending on the model
you have, the RG2400 can deliver separate xDSL video services to up to three TVs at the same time. It also
provides a high-speed xDSL modem for Internet access and telephony capabilities, such as Caller ID and Message Waiting display.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
The information in this manual is applicable to ADSL or VDSL versions of the Residential Gateway RG2400.
The term xDSL is a generic term, used in this manual, to refer to both ADSL and VDSL technologies.

ETTING STARTED on page 11 contains the informati on you use most frequently and helps you understand how
the RG2400 works after your NSP (network service provider) has connected and programmed its functions. It

WHAT YOUR NETWORK SERVICE PROVIDER DOES
The NSP (network service provider) is the company that installs your telephone and data services, as well as
possibly providing Internet service. Some te lephone companies, however , us e an ISP (Internet s ervice provider)
company to offer Int e rnet service to their customers.
During the initial installation your NSP does the following:
•Installs the RG2400 and connects it to your home entertainment system.
•Sets all features and services to which you have subscribed including:
•Wiring additional rooms with coaxial cable for secondary TVs.
•Connecting secondary TVs (TV2 and TV3) to the network and to any splitters and RAP(s) (remote
antenna package) that are required.
•Connects and configures your PC(s) to access the Internet.
•Ensures that all the remote controls in your home used with your RG2400 are the correct model.
•Installs the batteries in your remote control.
•Programs your remote control(s) to operate a specific TV.
•Provides labels for your remote control s to let you label one remote for each TV.
•Writes the remote control IDs in the space provided (see form below).
ABOUT RF CHANNELS
Your NSP sets your TV to operat e on a specif ic RF channel. This setting allows you to receive video and audio
broadcast services.
Programming the TV to an RF channel is similar to setting a TV to a specific channel, such as channel 3, in
order to view movies played on yo ur VCR. After the RF channel has been set, it is recommended t hat you do not
change it, as you will no longer be able to receiv e programming unless you retune you r TV to a new RF channel.
Once your TV is tuned to the specified RF channel, the RG2400 and your remote allow you to surf through the
channel line-up and tune to any program from any TV viewing location. The table below demonstrates how the
TV outputs and the RF channels work together to deliver video and audio programming.

AC OUTLET
The RG2400 has an AC outlet on the rear of the unit. Other devices can be plugged in to this outlet. The outl et is
on when the RG2400 is powered up. If you find that the outlet is off when the RG2400 is on, any press on the
remote control turns the AC outlet back on.
USING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control allows you to control TV viewing from anywhere in your home. Your NSP (or yourself) can
program it to operate your TV as well as your RG2400. The remote control operates by sending either IR (infrared) or UHF (ultra-high fr equency) signals t o the RG2400. Your Network Service Provider programs your remote
to operate in the most appropriate mode for your home.
If your remote control is programmed for IR mode, it requi res a direct line-of-sight in order to funct ion. In other
words, you need to point an IR remote directly to the television or the RG2400. You can only use an IR remote
to operate a TV that is located in the same room as the RG2400. If your primary TV (TV1) l ocated in a different
room than the RG2400, the remote must be programmed to use UHF mode.
Remote controls that control secondary TVs (TV2, TV3), are also programmed to operate in UHF mode.
REPLACING REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES
1. Remove the battery compartment cov er by holding the remote cont rol with it s back facing you, the n pressing
the battery cover at the thumb depression and sliding it off.
2. Install two 1.5V AA alkaline bat teries, aligning positive and negative terminals according to the diagrams in
the battery compartment.
3. Replace the remote control battery cover, snapping it into place.
4. Press the Power button on the remote control.
REMOTE CONTROL MODELS
Two model s of remote control can be used with the RG2400. They ar e the SRC-300A and the SRC-200. To tell
which model you have, consult the label on the back of the remote cont rol. The SRC-300A and the SRC-200 differ slightly. Both are described in the following sections.

pause before the LED turns on.
Once the LED sequence has completed, the SRC-300A returns to normal mode operation.
The SRC-300A remote control operates older RG models as wel l as newer models. To allow for this, the remote
can be set to operate in either SRC-200 Compatibility Mode or SRC-300A Native Mode. When in SRC-200
Compatibility Mode, the SRC-300A transmits IR/UHF messages that use the same format as the SRC-200
remote control (messages are 16-bits in length.) When in SRC-300A Native Mode, the SRC-300A transmits IR/
UHF messages using the 18-bit message format. The default operating mode is SRC-200 Compatibility mode.
To program the operating mode:
1. Press and hold the LED key until it starts to blink.
21
Page 22
If an invalid code is entered or a 20 second lapse in button presses occurs, the LED will turn off and the
remote control will return to normal operat ion. You will need to begin the procedure from step 1.
2. Press the REC key. The LED stops blinking and st ays solid.
3. Press and release the D key.
The LED temporarily turns off. Releasing the key causes the LED to light up again.
4. Press 0 to select SRC-200 compatibility mode or 1 to select SRC-300A native mode.
The new Operating Mode is then stored in the device.
Important! If the Operating Mode had been 1 (SRC-300A Native Mode) and is now set to zero (SRC-200 Com-
patibility Mode), t hen the Gateway ID is reset to zero and also stored in the device.
Once changes have been made, the remote control resumes normal operation. If the value entered was not
valid (a keypress other than 0 or 1,) the LED indicates the error by turning off immediately and the remote
returns to normal operation. (All values in the device remain unchanged.)
DETERMININGTHE GATEWAY ID
