4. HOW TO SET YOUR HARD DISK
Working your receiver, a Hard disk should be set in the rack.
Disk interface must be “IDE” type and size is usable between 80G Byte and 2T Byte.
A. Note that you must not plug in main power supply cord during these actions.
1) When you are setting the Hard disk, you have to set Jumper Setting as the MASTER. Jumper setting
type differs from manufacturing of Hard disk, so please check the label outside the Hard disk.
2) Open the HDD rack door which is on the left of your receiver front.
3) Take out the empty HDD rack.
4) Connect your Hard disk to the inner part of HDD rack using data cable and power cable.
5) Fix up Hard disk using screws.
6) Push the HDD rack tightly with a snap and certainly close the door.
B. Note that you have to check these actions after plugging the main power.
1) When you set new Hard disk, you must format it
( Main Menu ->Installation->Hard Disk->Hard Disk Format ).
2) You need to compare Hard Disk information in menu with real information on the Hard disk
( Main Menu ->Installation->Hard Disk-> Hard Disk information ).
* Do not turn off the power and do not unplug the power cable while hard disk drive is still running. And hard
disk drive is easily damaged by a shock. Be sure to back up all of your current files. The company is not
responsible for any loss of data.

watch all the channels in tuner B(A).
3) Recording in Tuner A and B at the same time
If you record channels in tuner A and B at the same time, you can watch the
channels that have the same TP of recording channel at each tuner.
2. One Antenna and Loop through
- Connect antenna cable to tuner A(B) and connect “LOOP OUT” of the tuner A(B) to “DISH IN” of the
tuner B(A) using loop through cable. In that case, works as followings.
1) Watching live channel without recording
You can watch all the channels in tuner A(B). In tuner B(A), but you can
watch the channels that have the same polarity(Hor/ver) of the watching
channel in tuner A(B).
2) Recording
In tuner B(A), you can record and watch the channels that have the same
polarity (Hor/Ver) of recording channel in tuner A(B). Except previous case, it
is working like Two Separated Antenna.
