The CMR-6000 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 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-6000.
