Getting Started The Quickstart Guide takes you through the steps for the basic HDP100 setup. Briefly, those steps are: 1. Unpack Make sure your package has the following items: power power link link data data f a. HDP100 transmitter and receiver b. Attachable feet c. Two stands (with four bracket screws) d. One wall mount kit • one wall mount bracket • two drywall screws • two drywall anchors e. One 3ft HDMI cable f. IR extender kit 2. Test the units 3. Place the transmitter and receiver 4.
Other Setup Options Connecting to an AV receiver or HDMI Switcher If you want to use multiple HDMI sources with the HD Powerlink system, you can connect the HDP100 transmitter to an AV receiver or HDMI switcher. 1. Make sure your signal source, display, and AV receiver or HDMI switcher are all working properly. Connect them as you normally would (without using the HDP100) and test them. If they work, disconnect them and proceed with step 2.
Other Setup Options 5. Turn on both units. The Power switches are on the back panels. The POWER, LINK, and DATA indicators light up on both. 6. Switch the AV receiver or HDMI switcher to the source you want to watch. Note: Remember that you must use the AV receiver or HDMI switcher to change between signal sources. The HDP100 transmits the signal being output by this device. 7. Start playing the DVD or tune to the satellite or cable channel you want to watch.
Other Setup Options Mounting the Receiver on the Wall 1. Find a good location on your wall for the HDP100 receiver. If you’re mounting it behind a TV, make sure you have enough clearance for the cables and the unit. 2. Mark two holes 45mm apart, one on top of the other. Make sure they’re plumb (straight up and down). Use the mounting bracket as a guide. 3. Drill 1/4” (6mm) diameter holes for the anchors where you marked. 4. Push the anchors into the wall and make sure they’re fully seated. 5.
Other Setup Options Installing the IR Extender Kit The HDP100 has an IR window on its receiving unit, which means that it can receive remote commands for your signal source device (your DVD player, for example) and pass these commands to this device. To send remote commands to your signal source device, you must first install the IR extender kit. Note: The IR extender kit does not work with RF remote commands. 1. Find the IR extender for the HDP100 transmitting unit.
Other Setup Options Installing the Receiver IR Extender (Optional) If you’ve positioned the HDP100 receiver where its IR window is covered or inaccessible, you can use a second IR extender to capture remote commands. 1. Plug the mini-jack end of the receiver’s IR extender into the IR EXTENDER jack on the receiver’s back panel. 2. Peel the back off the second included adhesive block. Affix the end of the extender to the block. Make sure the IR eye is facing out! 3.
Other Setup Options POWER indicator on; LINK and DATA indicators don’t light Make sure both units are plugged directly into unswitched, non-GFI outlets. Do not plug them into a surge protector. The units may be too far from each other. Try moving them to outlets that are closer together. POWER, LINK, and DATA indicators on; . no video or audio on display Make sure your TV is on. Make sure your TV is switched to the correct input for the HDP100.
Troubleshooting Resetting and Linking Manually The HDP100 transmitter and receiver come pre-linked at the factory, so they normally don’t need to be manually paired. If you have problems with the link, however, go through the following steps to reset and manually link the transmitter and receiver. 1. Unplug and completely disconnect both units. 2. Plug both units directly into a single wall outlet (any working outlet). 3.
