Getting Started
Once mounted and secured in your chosen location, power should be applied using the 12
volt mains adaptor supplied. Whe the unit is first switch on the green LED’s will
illuminate to indicate power to each port, the amber LED’s will illuminate one at a time
starting with port one. The PRO-6000B will check each port before applying power to the
receiver units. Should the initial system check find a fault with any port or cable attached
to the port, the amber LED associated with that port will flash until the CAT5 cable is
removed and the fault has been repaired.
Connecting Media Devices
Inputs 1 to 5 (Composite Video and Mono Audio)
Five signal inputs are provided at the rear of the hub. The first signal input is located at
the bottom left when viewed from the rear. These five inputs are gerneraly used in
conjunction with the Scion PRO-6010 five channel television demodulator. However,
each input is composite video and audio and can be used with any video and audio device
with this signal topology.
Inputs 6 to 9 (Composite Video and Stereo Audio)
Four signal inputs are provided at the rear of the hub. The first signal input is located at
the top left when viewed from the rear. These signal inputs are provided for local media
devices such as DVD, VCR and Satellite receivers.
Inputs 12 and 13 (Composite Video/CCTV)
Two signal inputs are provided at the rear of the hub. These signal inputs are located at the
bottom right of the hub when veiwed from the rear.
Inputs 10 and 11 (Auxilliary Inputs)
Two auxilliary inputs are provided on the front of the unit. These signal inputs are for
connecting remote media devices using the Scion PRO-6002/5 transmitter modules. The
PRO-6000B will transmit 12V d.c to the trasmitter modules using pins 7 & 8 of the RJ45
connector.

User Interface Connections
The PRO-6000B has six RJ45 user interface connectors mounted on the front of the unit.
Each connector has two LED indicators for displaying the status of each user. The green
LED indicated power and the amber indicates a fault when pulsing on and off.
Green LED
On initial power up the green LED’s will illuminate and remain on to indicate power to
the port.
Amber LED
On initial power up the PRO-6000B will perform a system check on each port starting
with port 1. The amber LED’s will illuminate one at a time until the system check is
complete. Should a wrong or faulty CAT5 cable be inserted or in the event of receiver
failure, the PRO-6000B will momentarily turn of the faulty port and re-apply power after
2 seconds. This creates a pulsing effect on the amber LED. The pulsing will continue until
the CAT5 cable is removed or the faulty receiver has been replaced.
NOTE
Leaving the system with pulsing amber LED’s for a long period will result in damage to
the PRO-6000B.

PRO-6001/6004 Receiver
The RJ45 LED indicators illuminate when connection is made indicating power to the
receiver. Unlike the PRO-6000B, both LED’s will illuminate if a good connection is
made. In the event of a faulty CAT5 cable both LED’s will pulse until the cable is
removed.
When choosing your location for the PRO-6003 IR detector, care should be taken not to
expose the unit to energy saving light bulbs or light emitted from a plasma screen. This
will cause interference to the IR signal being transmitted back to the PRO-6000B.

Troubleshooting
Amber LED is pulsating on the PRO-
6000B
And the PRO-6001
See user interface connections
No Video / Audio signal at receiver
Make sure the appropriate input is selected
and that the RCA Phono plug is secure. If
server software is in use, ensure the user is
not barred.
No or intermittent IR control
Ensure the IR detector PRO-6003 is not in
close proximity of plasma light or energy
saving light bulbs.
Using an NTL or Virgin Box
These boxes use IRDA operating at
128KHz. This needs converting to 38KHz.

For installations that include Virgin Plus boxes the following alternative codes are
installed in the PRO-6000B and the PRO-0201 IR handset. This function exists as the
Virgin Plus box uses the same IR codes as the Scion system. If you experience a
problem with the Scion handset controlling the channels on the Virgin box please do
the following listed below to stop the IR clash.
Press and hold Vol+ and Vol- for 7 seconds, the LED on the handset will light up. Now
you are in set up mode for changing the address code.
There are three address codes to choose from 1, 2 & 3. Press either 1,2 or 3 and the
LED will blink 3 times to confirm the address change.
Address code 2 is the Scion standard code, please revert back to this if you have
problems to re-gain control.
Address code 1 or 3 should be tried until you can control the Scion 6000B without
controlling the Virgin Plus box at the same time.
