Setting up your HD Extender
This unique technology allows you to connect a DVR, cable box, or other video
device to another TV anywhere in your home! Connect the Transmitter to your
video device(s) and TV, then connect the Receiver to another TV to extend your
viewing environment.
Video source and Transmitter
Receiver
To set up your HD Extender:
1 Place your Transmitter near your DVR, cable box, or other video device.
2 Connect your video source devices’ HDMI output to the Transmitter’s HDMI IN 1 or
HDMI IN 2 inputs. You do not have to connect video devices to both HDMI inputs.
3 If your TV is near your video sources, connect the TV’s HDMI IN jack to the
Transmitter’s HDMI OUT jack. This connection will allow you to view your video
device(s) on this TV and on the TV connected to your Receiver in another room. If
your TV is not near your video devices (across the room or in another room), you can
connect it to the Receiver.
4 Plug the Transmitter into AC power.
Optional
Setting up the IR emitter and IR receiver
An IR receiver cable and an IR emitter cable are included, allowing you to control a video
source, even when it’s in another room. Just point your devices' remote control at the IR
receiver instead of your video sources themselves.
Transmitter
Dual IR emitter cable
Stick each emitter to
the IR sensor on your
video sources.
Or if you’re just looking to move your video devices away from your main TV,
connect the Transmitter to those devices and the Receiver to your TV.

After the receiver and transmitter are turned on, the Sync indicators blink slowly for
15-20 seconds while establishing a connection over the power line. After connecting,
the indicators blink slower (good connection) or light solid (perfect connection).

(optional)
1 Plug the IR emitter cable into the Transmitter.
2 The IR emitter cable has two separate IR emitters, one for each video source device you
want to control. For each IR emitter, remove the protective cover from the tape on the
emitter and stick the emitter near the IR sensors on your video sources.
3 Plug the IR receiver cable into the Receiver if your Receiver is out of view or hidden in a
media cabinet. If you can point your remote directly at the Receiver, you do not need
to connect this cable.
4 Remove the protective cover from the tape on the IR receiver and stick the IR receiver
on the front of your TV, or in another visible location you can point to with your
remote.
Before using your new product, please read these instructions to prevent any damage.
Note: It’s best to connect the AC power cord directly to a wall outlet. Using a surge protector may
aect the quality of the signal.
