HDHomeRun Setup:

HDHomeRun detection:

• HDHomeRun Setup will automatically detect the HDHomeRun device(s) on the network.

• If the HDHomeRun is connected directly to the PC (rather than a switch or router) it may

take up to 3 minutes for the PC to be able to detect the HDHomeRun. This delay can be

eliminated by configuring PC's network interface to a static IP address in the 169.254.x.y

range, subnet mask 255.255.0.0. No default gateway is needed.

Location tab:

• Set your location - country plus postal code.

Applications tab:

• Choose the main PVR application you plan to use with the HDHomeRun.

• HDHomeRun QuickTV is recommended for the preview application.

Tuners tab:

• If using an antenna source set the source to “Digital Antenna” for each tuner connected to

the antenna source.

• If using a cable TV source set the source to “Digital Cable” for each tuner connected to the

cable TV source.

• If a tuner is not connected set the source to “Disabled”.

• When using an HDHomeRun 3G, both tuners will receive the same signal - both tuners

should be set tot the same source.

Channels tab:

• Click Scan to run a channel scan.

• Review the channels received.

Complete:

• Click OK/Finish to complete the HDHomeRun Setup process.

HDHomeRun configuration can be changed at a later date by running HDHomeRun Setup from the
