Installation
The CMR-5995 is designed for ease of installation and configuration. Once the unit
has been removed from the packing container, please follow these instructions:
Step Procedure
1
Place the unit on a flat surface with free airflow, where the LEDs can be clearly
observed and with unrestricted access to the rear panel of the unit.

Until the unit has been fully configured, the coaxial connection to the Low Noise
Block (LNB) should NOT be connected to the unit . If the unit will not be powering
the LNB, it is recommended that 'Polarity' (on the 'Tuner' configuration page) be
set to 'Off'

Connect the DC power connection from the SPU30-102 (external power supply) to
the connection labeled PWR on the back of the unit and tighten the restraining nut
to ensure secure operation.

Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable (patch cord) to the port labeled ETHERNET and
to an Ethernet concentrator (hub) or switch.

Connect a terminal cable P/N CA-TERMINAL (supplied) to the port labeled TERM
and to a PC’s serial port (DB-9), to initially configure the CMR-5995.
