of the Evolution Digital HD Set-Top Box
high-definition digital features.
1. Connect a coaxial cable to the cable
wall outlet and the “CABLE IN” port
on the cable box.
2. Connect the HDMI cable to the
“HDMI” port on HD Set-Top Box and
the “HDMI” port on your HDTV.
3. Connect the power cord to the
electrical wall outlet and the “DC 5V
IN” port on the HD Set-Top Box.
Note: HDMI cables carry audio and video to the TV.
Before you activate
1. Complete the Cable Connection steps
prior to activating.
2. Have the HD Set-Top Box Serial Number
available. This can be found on the bottom of
the HD Set-Top Box or on the side panel of the
product packaging.
3. Have your cable provider customer account
number accessible. This is typically found on
your cable provider billing information.
Now you are ready to activate!
4. Activate your HD STB by calling your cable
provider directly.

existing cable service.
