Connect a HDMI source device (e.g Satellite/Cable TV, Apple TV, Blu-ray,
DVD etc) to one of the ports labelled “SOURCE INPUT” on the MHUB
chassis using a good quality HDMI cable.
2
Connect a CAT cable between one of the HDBaseT output ports (labelled
A-F) on the MHUB chassis, and the “HDBASET” port on the MHUB receiver.
3
Connect a HDMI cable between the port labelled “HDMI OUT” on the
MHUB receiver and a HDMI port on your display. Ensure that your display is
switched to the correct input. Note: MHUB receivers do not need any
power cables to work, power is delivered from the MHUB chassis. Check
the white LED light on the MHUB receiver is lit, this indicates a connection
with the MHUB chassis. Check that you are receiving a picture on the
connected display.

To control your HDMI source from your display location, connect an IR TX to
the “SOURCE IR (OUT)” port on the MHUB chassis, that matches the
“SOURCE INPUT” port number for the source you want to control. Connect
an IR RX to the “IR (IN)” port on the MHUB receiver.
Test the IR control is working by using the source device remote pointed
towards the IR receiver at your display location.
Connect the “HUB CONTROL IP” port to your router via an ethernet cable.
You can then download our uControl app which is available for iOS and
Android. The uControl App will also provide your MHUB IP address.
