Your STB-2101H IP Set-Top Box (A) connects to your Internet
access device (B); this can be a broadband router, a wireless
router, a cable modem, and so on, just as long as it provides
connectivity to the Internet. Your television set (C) also connected
to the STB-2101H, and programs are controlled by the remote (D).

1. Connect your TV (and audio system, if required) to the STB-2101H’s
audiovisual ports using either the included cables or those that came
with your TV. Refer to the next figure for some example connections.
2. Connect your Internet access device (such as a broadband modem or
router) to the STB-2101H’s RJ-45 port.
3. Using the included power adaptor, connect the STB-2101H’s POWER
port to a suitable power source.

ENGLISH
The STB-2101H has a variety of options for connecting your TV (and
audio system). Use the hardware connections best suited to your
equipment; the following figure shows some examples.
Turn On the STB-2101H
Once you have made the hardware connections, take the following steps
to start up the STB-2101H.
1. Turn your television on. Change it to the channel or setting you
normally use to watch videos or DVDs. For example, select the
“VIDEO” input option, or press the “AV” button (look at the
documentation that came with your TV if you are not sure what to do).
5
2. Press the ON/OFF button on the rear of the STB-2101H.
The Power LED on the front of the STB-2101H lights up. It blinks
while the STB-2101H is starting up, then shines steadily green once
the STB-2101H is ready (this may take a little while).
The Ethernet LED on the front of the STB-2101H turns green once
the STB-2101H has finished starting up.
ꢀ
If the Power or Ethernet LEDs do not behave as expected,
first check the STB-2101H’s connections. Make sure that the
power is on and the Internet access device is working. If this
does not help, restart the STB-2101H (switch it off, then on
using the ON/OFF switch on the rear panel). If the problem
persists, contact your vendor.
3. A start-up picture displays on the television. When the STB-2101H
has successfully started up, the Home menu displays. Your STB-
2101H is ready to use!
The TV pictures shown in this Quick Start Guide are examples; what you
see may be different (depending on your IPTV service provider)
