INSTALLATION

Digital Camera, Flash Drive, Hard Disc Drive

The HS 500 is equipped with two independent USB ports for use with

USB devices, but not “host” devices, such as your PC. Do not connect

your PC to either of the HS 500’s USB ports.

The USB 1 port is located on the right side of the HS 500, near the

front panel. See Figure 21.

The USB 2 port is located on the rear panel. See Figure 22.

You may connect any USB device, such as a digital camera, flash drive

or hard disc drive to either USB port. The HS 500 will automatically

recognize any of the following types of files stored on the device: MP3

or WMA audio; MPEG 2 or uncompressed AVI video; JPEG still image.

You may navigate the files using the HS 500’s on-screen menu system,

as explained in the Operation section.

NOTES:

• The HS 500 is not compatible with digital cameras that do

not produce images in the JPEG file format.

• There is no special procedure for installing or removing USB

devices; simply plug in or remove the device at any time.

Step Five – Connect Video Display

Only video connections should be made between the receiver and

your video display (TV), unless your TV is the source for your television

programming (see above).

Determine what types of video your display is capable of handling.

Remember that HDMI is preferred, followed by component video

S-video and then composite video.

Select the best type of video your display is capable of handling,

and connect only one of the HS 500’s video outputs to your display.

See Figure 23.

Step Six – Plug In AC Power

Having made all of your wiring connections, it is now time to power

up the HS 500. The HS 500 comes with a detachable power cord,

which enables you to pre-install all wiring before final installation of the

HS 500. Connect the female end of the power cord to the HS 500’s

AC Input, and plug the other end of the cord into a working, unswitched

AC outlet. See Figure 24. If you are using any external components with

the HS 500 system, you may plug those into AC power at this time.

Step Seven – Insert Batteries in Remote

The HS 500 remote control uses three AAA batteries (included).

To remove the battery cover located on the back of the remote, firmly

press the ridged depression and slide the cover towards the top of

the remote.

Insert the batteries as shown in Figure 25, making sure to observe

the correct polarity.

Compartment

When using the remote, remember to point the lens toward the front

panel of the HS 500. Make sure no objects, such as furniture, are

blocking the remote’s path to the receiver. Bright lights, fluorescent lights

and plasma video displays may interfere with the remote’s functioning.

The remote has a range of about 20 feet, depending on the lighting

conditions. It may be used at an angle of up to 30 degrees to either

side of the HS 500.

If the remote seems to operate intermittently, or if pressing a button

on the remote does not cause one of the source selectors to light up,

then make sure the batteries have been inserted correctly, or replace

all three batteries with fresh ones.

Step Eight – Program Sources Into the Remote

The HS 500 remote is capable of controlling not only the HS 500,

but it may also be programmed to control many brands and models of

VCRs, cable boxes, satellite receivers, cassette decks and TVs.

It may help to think of the remote as a book with pages. Each page

represents the button functions for a different device. In order to access

the functions for a particular device, you first need to turn to that page.

This is done by pressing the Source Selector buttons to access the

codes for the devices programmed into the remote. There is no “page”

specifically set aside for the HS 500’s system functions. Instead, the

volume and audio controls are always active, and the functions for the

internal disc player and tuner are active when those sources are selected.
