KODAK Theatre HD Player — Extended user guide

  1. Find a location for the HD player where it is not subjected to excessive heat from your home heating system or other electronic devices (e.g., avoid placement directly on top of other devices that generate significant heat).

NOTE:

For optimum wireless performance, do not locate the HD player within a metallic enclosure as it minimizes Wi-Fi radio and pointer remote transmission signals. Stay at least 2 ft away from large metal fixtures (e.g., file cabinets, refrigerators) and 10 ft from your wireless router. Avoid placing the HD player near devices that may produce electromagnetic noise (e.g., fax and copy machines, cell/cordless phones, microwave ovens).

  2. If you are not connecting to your home network wirelessly, connect a shielded Ethernet cable (RJ45, sold separately) from your network router or computer to the HD player. If you have a wireless network, go to step 3.

NOTE:

If you are connecting wirelessly to the HD player, make note of the wireless settings (router SSID name, security settings, network key, etc.) on your computer from your router's configuration screen. You may need this information to set up the HD player later.

  3. Connect the HD player to your HDTV (or to an HDMI computer monitor). Find the audio and video ports on the back of your TV or receiver; use the appropriate cables for your setup. HDMI or component connections provide a quality experience. Note the HDMI or component inputs used.

• Do not connect the unit through a VCR. (Video signals fed through VCRs may be affected by copyright protection systems, and the picture will be distorted on the television.)
  
  
• If the component audio/video cables provided in the box are not used, Kodak recommends a Category 2 HDMI cable with ferrite beads at both ends.
  
  

  4. Attach the AC adapter to the HD player and plug it into a wall outlet to turn it on.

  5. Turn on your TV.

  6. Using your TV remote control, select the video input matching the connection you made in step 3. (Refer to your TV owner's manual for more information on changing the video input mode.) It may take a few seconds for the TV mode change to take effect.

The setup wizard appears on your TV screen.

  7. Use the KODAK Pointer Remote to follow the 9 easy steps on your TV screen for configuring the HD player for your home network.
