Easy Installation Steps

HDMI

– If your television has an open HDMI port, this is the best way to connect your

media player. You will need to purchase a separate HDMI cable for this connection

method. Connect the HDMI cable from the media player to the open HDMI port on the

back of your television. This will carry both HD video as well as audio.

Connect to the Ethernet

Component

– If your television has an open Component video connection, use the

included Component cables to connect the media player to your television. You will also

need to connect the audio using the included composite AV cable (connect only the red

and white plugs to your television) or connect an optical SPDIF cable (not included).

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the LAN outlet on the rear of the media

player and the other into your computer network switch or router.

At this point, your new FreeAgent Theater+ media player is installed and ready to be enjoyed!

Simply slide your FreeAgent Go drive into the built-in dock on the Theater+ media player, or

plug any other USB storage device or camera into one of the available USB ports. Then use

the included remote control to enjoy your favorite movies, photos and music!

Once you have connected your media player to your television, plug in the AC power

connector. The power LED on the front of the unit flashes amber while the media player

starts up. When the LED shines a steady amber, the unit is in standby/off mode. When

the unit is on, the LED is white.

Composite

– If your television does not have either HDMI or Component video

connections available, you can still connect your media player using the included

Composite AV cable. Plug the single connector into the back of the media player, and

the associated yellow, red and white cables into your Video In, Audio Right and Audio

Left inputs on your television.
