B-CAS card (Japan only)
The B-CAS card (provided by HP) needs to be installed into your computer.
WARNING! Always disconnect the computer from the power source before removing the memory
cover or the back cover. Failure to do so before you open the computer or perform any procedures
can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING! Avoid touching sharp edges inside the computer.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock or hot surfaces, disconnect
the power cord from the wall outlet, and allow the internal system components to cool before touching
them.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or optional
equipment. Ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal
object.
1. Turn off your computer and disconnect the power cord and any other cables connected to your
computer.
2. Insert a B-CAS card (provided by HP) into the back of the computer to decrypt high-definition
programming. Some models may need to remove the back panel.
3. Connect the coaxial cable from your TV antenna or TV cable provider to the TV In connector
located on the back of the computer. The location of the TV In connector varies by model.
Dual tuner (Japan only)
Dual-tuner TV source allows watching a show on one channel while recording another show on a
different channel. You can also record two different programs at the same time. The characteristics
and requirements for dual-tuner TV source are as follows:
●
If you are using a standard cable connector, the signal is routed to both tuners internally.
●
If you are using cable or satellite, you must connect a second set of input cables.
●
TV sources must be of the same type: either cable TV or satellite TV.
●
TV sources must also have identical channel lineups; for example, if you are using two satellite
TV sources, they must provide exactly the same channels.
●
All TV viewing and scheduling is provided by the Television (Electronic) Program Guide, so both
TV sources must have identical television program guides.
