Horizon HD Recorder: Installation - how it works
Before you can enjoy the variety of channels on your Horizon HD recorder, you first have to install the necessary hardware. Read in our practical tip how to do this.
Installation of the Horizon HD recorder - so it'll work
In just a few steps you have installed your Horizon HD Recorder and ready for use:
- Connect the recorder to the antenna socket using the antenna cable supplied. To do this, use the lower socket or the supplied adapter and the right socket. Then connect the receiver to the television using the HDMI cable.
- Then you have to connect the receiver to the power. Then switch on both devices and switch to the corresponding HDMI input on the TV so that you can see the picture of the recorder.
- If new software is available for the recorder, it is now downloaded and installed.
- This process can take up to 20 minutes. Then you have to choose your language and confirm with "OK" on the remote control. To do this, you must first remove the plastic strip on the battery for the remote control to work.
- After about three minutes you must read the license agreement carefully and confirm it, otherwise no installation can be carried out.
- Finally, you will see a welcome video that explains the functions of the recorder.
- After about 30 minutes, all channels are unlocked and you can use the Horizon HD Recorder to the full extent.
