The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING:

To prevent fire or shock hazards, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.

POWER CORD POLARIZATION:

CAUTION: To Prevent Electric Shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.

ATTENTION: Pour éviter les chocs électriques, introduire la lame la plus large de la fiche dans la borne correspondante de la prise et pousser jusqu’au fond.

NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER:

This reminder is provided to call the cable TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry as practical.

REGULATORY INFORMATION:

Front A/V Jacks

There are four jacks on the front of your Entertainment Machine that make

connecting Audio/Video devices like video games and camcorders very simple.

The jacks are located behind a small door below the buttons on the front panel.

The jacks are like those found in the jack pack on the back of your Entertainment Machine. Which means that any equipment that connects to those types of jacks in the rear jack pack, can also be connected in front.

To use the front jacks as the signal source, use the Source menu as described on page 22. They will be named “Frnt Video” and “Frnt S-Video” in the Source menu, but if you are using something else, and don’t want to get confused, change the name under the Source ID (see page 31).

Cable Box

Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode premium channels and pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to Decoder option, and programming your remote, you can connect your cable box so that you only need your MBR Trakball remote to control all the channels. By connecting cable directly to your Entertainment Machine, then running it out to the cable box and back, you make the cable box another source to choose from in the Source menu (see page 22).

1

Locate the Antenna/Cable 2 jack on

the back of your TV. Connect the

 

cable that runs from the wall direct-

 

ly to the jack. Now find the the

 

Loop Out jack.

2

Connect the cable from this jack to

the Input jack on the back of your

 

cable box.

3

Locate the Output jack on the back

of your cable box. Connect this to

 

the Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the

 

back of your TV.

4

To view the premium stations, set

the channel number on your cable

box to HBO, CINEMAX, SHOWTIME, etc. Then go to the Source menu and select the Antenna/Cable 1 source. See your Quick Setup Sheet, included with this operating guide for more information. See page 22 for information regarding Source Menus.

To view the non premium channels go to the Source Menu and select Antenna/Cable 2. Then run Channel Search to check for all available channels and store them in its memory.

This can be combined with any other equipment you may want

to hook up. Hook cable directly into the TV, then to the cable box. From there, the cable box goes to the next device, down the line, until the last piece, which connects back to the TV in the Antenna/Cable 1 jack.

General help on designing your home theater set-up.

Room Set-ups for Home Theater

This is just a general room design. Any number of set-ups are possible, and some changes may be needed to maximize your sound.

A left and right speaker on either side of the Entertainment Machine will create a phantom “center channel,” making the dialog sound as though it’s coming directly from the Entertainment Machine. The rear surround sound speakers provide the majority of other sounds, like those from special effects in movies. Your sub-woofer generates ultra-low frequency sound, for rumbling low-end audio.

Sound is affected by speaker placement, so make sure nothing is in front of the speakers, and that they are aimed in appropriate directions.

You have the option of turning on or off the internal speakers.

If your surround sound system is on, but there’s no sound from the speakers, the program you’re watching might not be broadcast in surround sound.

Audio Hookups

Before you begin plugging in your speakers, it’s a good idea to put them in their approximate places first. That way you know how much wire you have or will need.

1

 

Locate the Surround Speakers

 

jacks on the back of your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Entertainment Machine. Connect

 

 

 

 

the wires to the right or left

 

 

 

 

channel, depending on where the

 

 

 

 

speaker is located in your room.

 

 

 

 

The copper wire corresponds to

 

 

 

 

the Negative jack, and the silver

 

 

 

 

to the Positive.

2

 

Locate the jacks marked Variable

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Out. These are for the sub-woofer.

 

 

 

 

Connect the sub-woofer’s cables,

 

 

 

 

according to their color (red is

 

 

 

 

the right channel, white the left)

 

 

 

 

to these jacks.

 

 

 

 

If you happen to have Mini-tower

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

speakers, these will be connected

Using Your Trakball Remote

Make sure your Entertainment Machine is on. Just click the Trakball by pressing gently with your thumb, and a hand-shaped pointer will appear.

You can now move the pointer anywhere on the screen by rolling the Trakball with your thumb. As you move it from side to side, top to bottom, different menus will appear on-screen.

You can use and adjust any of these options by rolling the pointer so the index finger on the screen is touching the icon for the menu or option you want. Click the Trakball again, and the option or menu

is selected.

When you’re finished and want to return to normal viewing, either wait a few seconds and the pointer will disappear, or move the pointer so that it isn’t touching any icons or menus, and click again.

When your pointer touches certain on-screen icons, a small text window appears to the right of the pointer, telling what the icon represents.

The point-and-click interface does everything buttons do, just like your computer. Click words on-screen instead of pressing the button. Or click on items instead of scrolling with the arrow keys.

Trakball shortcut: To quickly exit any menu screen, click on the main screen — outside the borders of the menus display.

Menu Display, which lets you access the Source menu (see page 22), the Setup menu (see pages 23-27), the Features menu (see pages 28-34), the Audio menu (see page 35), the Video menu (see page 36), and the Picture-in-picture menu (see page 39).
