After you have experienced the exciting new world of personal television, you wilt never watch plain old television again. No videotapes. No hassles. No compromises.
Pause live television. With ReplayTV, it's easy to quickly find and automatically record your
favorite television shows, so you can watch them whenever you want--on
your schedule, not somebody else's. Also, ReplayTV is
the first digital video recorder (DVR) that allows you to share content among multiple units in a home network. You can even send
your recordings over the Internet with friends and family who are using ReplayTV.

Activation

A service activation fee is required to begin using your new ReplayTV 5000 Series Digital Video Recorder ("ReplayTV").You
can
choose from two payment options: a one-time fee or monthly payments. Only the ReptayTV unit containing the serial number that
you register is paid for and activated through this process. Other ReptayTV units will require separate activation fee payments.
There is a grace period after your initial connection to the ReplayTV Service, during which time you can use ReplayTV without
having to activate the service. If you do not complete the service activation process and pay the service activation fee, your
ReplayTV will cease to operate until the service is activated and the fee is paid. Please activate your service before the grace period
expires.
An activation key for your ReplayTV will be displayed during the on-screen setup process. To activate the service and pay the activation fee, have the activation key ready and go to our Web site at www.sonicblue.com/replaytv
or call 1-800-480-7149.

Connections

This chapter describes how to connect ReplayTV to your TV and other devices, including your home network. You will find
detailed connection options not found on the Quiek Setup Guide. If you have not already, take a look at the Quick Setup Guide
before reading this chapter.
Cable

Overview

You may not need to use all the cables provided with ReplayTVi Your setup will depend on the components (Cable box, satellite
receiver, VCR, home network, etc.) you use. During setup, you may be called upon to identify one or more of the following cables:
Coaxial cable (included) delivers the signals broadcast by your cable TV company, or local slations. You can
also use lhis supplied cable to connect ReplayTV directly to your television.
S-Video cable (not included) delivers high quality video signals between ReplayTV and your lclevision or
monitor. Older-model TVs may not support S-Video. Because S-Video cable only provides the video signal, it
must be used in combination wilh both of the audio plugs (red and while) on an A/V cable.

i,_o

Component Video cables (not included) connect from the Progressive Out (Y, Pb, Pr)jacks on ReplayTV to
deliver high quality video signals to your television or monitor. Older-model TVs may not have a Progressive
input. Because component video cables only provide the video signal, lhey must be used in combination with
both of the audio plugs (red and while) on an A/V cable.

i €III

A/V cable (included) delivers audio and video signals between ReplayTV and your lelevision or monitor. The
red and white plugs deliver stereo audio. The yellow plug delivers video.

Serial cable (included) lets ReplayTV change the channels on satellite receivers, many if which use serial
cables tbr communication. "the RJ-11 to 9-pin adapter connects to INs cable, if it is used.

IR blaster cable (included) lets ReplayTV change the channels on your cable box or satellite receiver if it does
not support the serial cable. The IR blaster emitters need to be affixed directly over the IR delector on your salellite receiver or cable box. See "Connecting lhe IR Blaster" on page 10.

9-pin to 15-pin adapter

(included) connects your satellile receiver to ReplayTV if the satellile receiver uses a

15-pin serial cable.

_

RJ-11 to 9-pin adapter (included) connects your satellite receiver to ReplayTV iflhe satellite receiver uses a
telephone cable in place of a serial cable. RCA models DRD221RD, DRD222RD, DRD223RD, and DS2122RD
all require use of this adapler.

[]
Ethernet cable (not included) connects to lhe ETHERNET jack on ReplayTV, allowing you to connect
ReplayTV to a broadband network. If you have a home network, you should leave ReplayTV connected to it at
all times, because ReplayTV will use it to receive Channel Guide lislings.
Telephone cable (included) connects from the TEL LINE jack on ReplayTV to a wall jack. Leave the cane
connected to ReplayTV al all times to receive lhe daily Channel Guide lislings.

can also connect a VCR to ReplayTV and save shows you have recorded to videotape. See "Saving Recordings to Videotape" on
page 48 for more information. ReplayTV is not intended to record signals sent by DVD players and video game systems. Connect
DVD players and video game systems directly to your television, not to ReptayTV.

Checking

your

Satellite

Receiver

ReplayTV receives broadcast signals from satellite receivers through S-Video or A/V cables. ReplayTV can send channel-changing
signals to your satellite receiver through the supplied serial cable or IR blaster. It is recommended
that you connect your ReplayTV
to your satellite receiver using a serial cable. Use the 1R blaster if your satellite receiver does not have a serial port.
If the remote control for your satellite receiver has a "UHF" label, or if your satellite receiver uses a small antenna, your satellite
receiver is radio controlled. ReplayTV does not support radio-controlled
receivers. Check your receiver's owner's manual to see if
serial or infrared controls are supported.

Controllers

If you connect a cable box or satellite receiver to ReplayTV, you will need to attach a controller cable so ReplayTV can change the
channels on either of these components. The controller, either a serial cable or an IR blaster cable, will act as a remote control for
these components.
Connecting

the

Serial

Cable

If your satellite receiver or cable box supports serial cable, use the provided serial cable as a controlling cable. Connect the serial
cable to the SERIAL connector on ReplayTV and to the serial port on your cable box or satellite receiver. If your receiver uses a 15pin serial connector, use the supplied 15-pin to 9-pin adapter. If you have a satellite receiver that uses telephone cable in place of
serial cable, you wilt need to use the R J-11 to 9-pin adapter to connect the satellite receiver to ReplayTV. RCA models DRD221RD,

If you are not manually specifying the IP address on ReplayTV, verify that DHCP is enabled on your router. You should specify
the IP address of ReplayTV if you are sharing recordings. Some routers will allow you to automatically
assign the same IP

that you enable this feature for ReplayTV, if it is available to you.
Verify that DNS is enabled on your router and the proper DNS entries have been added. These would have been provided by
your ISP. If the IP address of the router is specified (this is the external IP address), double-check the DNS entries from your
ISP.

IP Address

The IP address you specify on ReplayTV must be in the same range as the 1P addresses of other computers or devices on the same

then the ReptayTV 1P address may be 192.168.0.x, where x can be any number from 2 to 254. No other device on your network can
