STARTING UP
When the set-top box is connected to the
TV set, Ethernet and power, you will see
an image similar to the one to the right on
the TV screen.
The set-top box is now connecting to the network and downloading the
software needed. Please wait until the loading is finished.
The dots in the middle of the screen will change color during the start up
of the system. From the start, all dots are dark grey. As the set-top box
searches for software or is processing downloaded software, one dot
at a time starts blinkning yellow. When software is being downloaded, a
progress bar of ten smaller dots appear and the main dot blinks green.
When one of the five steps in the start up process is completed, the dot
for it turns green. When all five main dots are green, the system is ready to
run. If the software in any of the steps could not be loaded, the dot turns
red and the remaining steps are cancelled.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If you encounter any problems during start up, please note which of the
main dots (1 - 5) that has not turned green before you contact your support
personnel.
ON-LINE HELP
When your set-top box is up and running, please see the instructions
provided by your IPTV provider on how to reach the services and how to
