Introduction - Motorola DCT6412 User Manual

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on receiving a Motorola DCT6400 Series Phase III High
Definition Advanced DVR Cable Box. Motorola has merged the features
of digital cable – the seemingly endless programming options, interactive
program guide, Seaside video on demand (VOD), and commercial free,
diital quality music – with the flexibility of a dual tuner digital video recorder
(DVR) and the incredible picture quality and sound of high definition TV.
HDTV provides up to twice the color resolution and up to six times the
sharpness of standard definition TV.
The DCT6400 enables a high quality connection to consumer audio and
video devices through the HDMI and Component interfaces. It contains a
hard drive for hours of DVR functionality, including recording high
definition (HD) programs and watch and record functionality.
This User Guide introduces the basic features, outlines important
safeguards, and provides options for integrating your DCT6400 into your
entertainment system. Please take a few moments to read through this
User Guide. The configuration diagrams, on-screen menu description,
and troubleshooting section will help you make the most of your home
entertainment experience.
In this guide, "DCT6400" refers to all DCT6400 Series Phase III cable
terminals, including the DCT6412 and DCT6416. They function
identically, but have different size hard drives.
For example:
