Front and Back Panels

Factory default settings allow HDb2500/2600 

Series modulators to broadcast up to 4 HD 

sources on RF channels 21, 22, 23, and 24 

for reception at connected HDTVs.

We recommend using the most updated 

version of firmware. You can find the latest 

version on the Support section of our website. 

Beginning setup

1.

 Apply AC power.

2.

 Connect the component (or VGA) video 

connectors on the AV cable to the 

corresponding video outputs on your 

video source. Use the composite (yellow) 

connector for Teletext.

3.

 Connect either the Digital (orange) or Analog 

(red/white) audio connectors on the AV Cable 

to the audio outputs on your video source. 

Tuning your channel at the HDTV 

(Auto Scan)

1. 

Connect the Coaxial Output of the HDb2000 

to your RF network. 

 

If the RF power for your network is too high, 

you will observe video breakup.

2. 

Set the RF Input on the TVs to DVB-T 

(default) or DVB-C with the Symbol Rate 

6740 KS/sec.

3.

 Enter the RF number to tune directly to 

the channel. (Refer to the Default Channel 

Lineup for default information.) 

 

If you cannot tune directly to the channel at 

this point, it is because most TVs will require 

you to run a full Auto Scan.

4.

 Run the Auto Scan through the menu 

system of your HDTV to find the channels.
