Congratulations! You have completed programming of this Receiver and are
ready to move to the next Receiver if needed.
Note:
When programming brand new units straight out of the box, the default IP to be entered into your browser will be 192.168.0.152. If reprogramming already pre­programmed units, please reference the IP address on the unit. If any multicast unit is reset to factory defaults, it will revert back to the 192.168.0.152 IP address regardless of the IP address label on the unit.
Caution: It is very important that the IP address is recorded for each unit. If IP addresses do not match any of the default addresses, unit(s) will need to be reset to default settings to regain access to LAN programming capabilities.

Installation
Step 1
Connecting the Receiver to the Display Device
Note: Connect the Receiver to the display device using the port with the high
resolution capability, HDMI port is preferred. Regardless of the number of analog or digital sources connected to the Transmitter, only one port is required to be connected to the display. Be sure the source resolution matches with the display device's resolution capabilities.
A. HDMI Output to Display
Connect the HDMI cable from the Receiver's HDMI output to the display device's HDMI input.
B. Composite Output to Display
Connect the composite RCA cable from the Receiver's AV output to the display device's composite input.
C. Component Output to Display
Video - Connect the component video (YPbPr) cable from the Receiver's COMPONENT-OUT to the displays device's component input.
Audio - A 3.5mm-to-RCA stereo audio cable is required (not included) to transmit audio when using this input. Connect the 3.5mm end of the cable to the Receiver's AUDIO-OUT port, then connect the RCA side of the cable to the RCA ports on the display decive.

ISSUED: 07-24-12 SHEET #: 180-9025-1
Powering-up the HD Flow Pro Wireless Multimedia Receiver
Step 2
A. Plug-in the power adapter for the Receiver to an available power outlet.
B. Plug in the other end of the power cable to the Receiver . The unit will automatically
turn on.
Step 3
Turn on your display device (TV, monitor, projector, etc.).
Note: All of the unplugged HD Flow Pro Wireless Multimedia Kit units should have been plugged in and connected to their respective display and source devices.
Step 4
While turning on the display device, the Transmitter and Receiver will be going through the start up process. The process takes about 1 to 2 minutes to complete. The Power/Link Indicator Light on the Transmitter and the Receiver should be fl ashing at fi rst. Flashing indicates that the Transmitter and Receiver are establishing a secure connection. Please wait until the connection is successfully established, indicated by the solid Power/Link Indicator Light.
Step 5
Select the output that the Receiver is connected to the display device with. At this time the output Indicator Light will become solid and the HD Flow logo will appear on the display device.
Step 6
Turn on the desired media source device that is connected to the Transmitter.
Step 7
Select the desired media source device input on the Transmitter.
Step 8
Play the source device media content and enjoy up to a Full HD 1080p wireless entertainment experience.
27 of 36
ISSUED: 07-24-12 SHEET #: 180-9025-1
Tips
If the Transmitter and Receiver are not establishing a connection:
a. Ensure that both the Transmitter and Receiver are on the same WiFi channel
b. If the Transmitter and Receiver are not connecting after trying (a), it is recommended to verify the programming setting of the Receiver that is not establishing connection.
c. If two (2) or more Receivers are not connecting to the Transmitter, it is recommended to verify the Transmitters programmed settings
If the connection has been established and the HD Flow logo can be seen on the display device, but content is not playing when initiated:
a. Ensure that cables are properly connected.
b. Ensure the Transmitter is set to the proper input port and that the
Receiver is set to the proper output port.
c. Ensure that the display device is set to the proper input.
d. The display device needs to be able to support the resolution of the
media source that is being streamed. Pressing the INFO button on the remote control will allow you to see the EDID resolution data that the display device accepts. (Example - If the display device supports the highest resolution of 720p but the source device is outputting 1080p content, the content needs to be scaled down to the maximum resolution of the display device. In this case 720p).
Note: The SSID is case sensitive and will NEVER use the letter "O" but will ALWAYS use a number "0".
Selecting Input and Output Port
There are two ways to select input and output sources on the HD Flow Transmitter and Receiver:
1. Using the provided Remote
Transmitter - Press the desired input while pointing the remote at the Transmitter unit.
Receiver - Press the desired output while pointing the remote at the Receiver.
2. Using the Power/Source Selection Button
Transmitter / Receiver - To toggle between inputs press the Power/Source Selection Button on the unit itself.

Notes:
1. 1600 x 1200p60 is a reduced format.
2. HD Flow simply relays the input format of the video from the Transmitter to the Receiver. HD Flow does not change the video format. If you want to change output format, you should change input format on the external device which is connected to the Transmitter.
3. When transmitting NTSC:480i or PAL:576i from the Transmitter, COMPONENT-OUT MUST be used at the Receiver.
4. Only HDMI 480i resolution input will provide composite AV-OUT signal at the Receiver. For all other resolutions, use HDMI-OUT or COMPONENT-OUT at the Receiver.
5. PC-IN fully supports resolutions noted above ONLY when HDMI-OUT is used at the Receiver.
