Basic Configuration (Front Panel)


Factory default settings allow your module to broadcast a component video source with digital audio on Channel
2.1. Tune the HDTV to channel 2.1 to view your new Zv channel.

Channel Spacing


None required for digital channels. Channels can be set directly adjacent to each other and any other well-formed
digital channels and will not cause interference. Spacing may be necessary when combining with other modulated
analog channels.

Unlocking the Setup Button


After the unit boots up, it is ready for channel setup when the LED begins to show a steady blue. At that point, if
channel setup is not started within 30 seconds, the LED will flash twice, and the unit will lock to prevent accidental
reprogramming.

If the unit is locked, the LED will continue to show a steady blue even when the button is pressed.

To unlock, press and hold the button until the LED flashes twice (approximately 5 seconds). The LED will then flash
the current channel. The unit is now ready for programming.

Once unlocked, the unit will re-lock automatically if there is no activity within 30 seconds.

Setting the Channel via the Front Panel Button


RF and HDTV channels can be changed using just the front panel button, no PC or Ethernet connection is required.
When using the Front Panel Button for configuration, RF and HDTV channels are linked; for example RF channel 50
will be HDTV channel 50.1. To change the HDTV channel or to make other changes, refer to the Advanced
Configuration section on pages 8-9.
