Easy Installation Steps

HDMI – If your television has an open HDMI port, this is the best way to connect your media player. You will need to purchase a separate HDMI cable for this connection method. Connect the HDMI cable from the media player to the open HDMI port on the back of your television. This will carry both HD video as well as audio.

2 Connect to the Ethernet

Component – If your television has an open Component video connection, use the included Component cables to connect the media player to your television. You will also need to connect the audio using the included composite AV cable (connect only the red and white plugs to your television) or connect an optical SPDIF cable (not included).

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the LAN outlet on the rear of the media player and the other into your computer network switch or router.

At this point, your new FreeAgent Theater+ media player is installed and ready to be enjoyed! Simply slide your FreeAgent Go drive into the built-in dock on the Theater+ media player, or plug any other USB storage device or camera into one of the available USB ports. Then use the included remote control to enjoy your favorite movies, photos and music!

Once you have connected your media player to your television, plug in the AC power connector. The power LED on the front of the unit flashes amber while the media player starts up. When the LED shines a steady amber, the unit is in standby/off mode. When the unit is on, the LED is white.

All media player features are controlled using the remote control buttons and the on-screen menus

Media Sync allows you to automatically synchronize media files between your computer and a FreeAgent Go™ or other external USB storage device. You can use the media player without installing the Media Sync software, but you can’t synchronize your media files without it.

Composite – If your television does not have either HDMI or Component video connections available, you can still connect your media player using the included Composite AV cable. Plug the single connector into the back of the media player, and the associated yellow, red and white cables into your Video In, Audio Right and Audio Left inputs on your television.
