TV set-top box Beeline cisco instructions. It's easy to set up IPTV from Beeline

Beeline launched digital television back in 2009. The indisputable advantages of IPTV from Beeline include the fact that when connecting, a switch and even an STB set-top box are provided for rent. And the model range of such consoles is quite impressive. Conventionally, they can be divided into two groups, which differ in the presence of a hard drive.

The first group without railway includes:

• Cisco – models CIS 2001 and ISB 2200;
• Motorola – VIP 1002E and VIP 1200 models;
• CA also Tatung STB2530.

To the second from the railway:

• Cisco - CIS 430, ISB 7031, ISB 2230;
• Motorola – VIP 1216, VIP 2262E;
• Tatung STB3210.

An equally pleasant option from Beeline is the ability to watch TV programs through the Xbox 360 game console. The company uses the simplest switches - TRENDnet TE 100-S5 and D-Link DES-1005D.

So, what does a standard subscriber package look like? Equipment from Beeline upon delivery has the following appearance.

What do we see in the box

Note that in addition to the set-top box itself, the kit is full of cables and other equipment - there is even an HDMI cable! The switch from Trendnet is so compact that it easily fits into a box.

Well, and finally, a nice little thing. Where would we be without her? In the kit you will find a refrigerator magnet. Let us note that the Beeline company monitors its branding - it is present on literally every item, and the kit includes stickers.

The connection diagram itself is elementary simple: the cable brought to the house is connected into a switch, and from it the STB set-top box is connected directly, and, of course, your PC. Do you have a router with which you can programmatically allocate one port for an STB set-top box? Great - in this case, you can safely connect through the router. Otherwise, if the router does not connect to IPTV, you will have to connect it to the switch.

When you turn it on for the first time, the Beeline STB set-top box will update the software itself and connect to the portal. Authorization of the set-top box on the portal is organized only at the link level - a rigid binding is used according to the so-called. MAC address. Once the connection is complete, the Microsoft Mediaroom screensaver will appear on your desktop. Yes, the company did not skimp in this regard - in general, in digital television today it is the most advanced and most expensive platform. It is used by well-known operators - AT&T, Deutsche Telekom Vodafone.

The interface is quite functional and convenient

A very convenient channel management has been created - now you can watch a TV program by scrolling through the list of channels one by one, pre-sorted by topic, or you can select your favorites. In the channel list you will find an online TV program that has a picture-in-picture option.

Maybe the main and only disadvantage is that the recorded video cannot be deleted from the set-top box, because... The recording is in encrypted form. You can record several programs at once. Recording occurs either at the touch of a button or according to a set schedule.

Unencrypted ones - there are only 9 of them - can also be watched through a computer on a VLC player. The remote control is programmable and can be used to control four devices. Oddly enough, you can even program key combinations - for example, sound control can be used on a TV or set-top box. The instructions are in English, but can also be found in Russian on the company’s official website.

An important flaw is that only one TV can be connected to each separate set-top box. Another disadvantage is the fairly long loading time of the set-top box when turned on after a complete shutdown of the equipment.

In general, interactive television from Beeline is a fairly good investment. And this takes into account the fact that today the package is issued without rent, and savings with package offers are up to 30% of the subscription fee. You can see all the possibilities of IPTV from Beeline in the video below.

We examined the possibility of connecting home digital television using the example of the Moscow provider OnLime. OnLime provides its services for broadcasting digital television, supplying the signal to the subscriber directly through a public home antenna - this is its main feature. In this case, the home antenna plug is connected not to the TV, but to the subscriber receiver - STB (Set-top-box). STB is a digital receiver that receives a digital signal, decrypts it and converts it into analog for further transmission directly to the television receiver.

Today we will consider another option for the appearance of digital television in an apartment, using not a public home antenna, but the networks of an Internet provider. However, a digital receiver will also be needed here. Only this time it will connect directly to the Internet. The main difference between IPTV (IP Television) lies precisely in the “IP” (Internet Protocol) prefix, which means that an Internet cable must be present in the apartment.

It is not surprising that IPTV providers are usually the Internet providers themselves, because they have the opportunity, using their networks, to provide subscribers with access to digital television in addition to Internet access. One of the largest Internet providers and at the same time a supplier of television content in our country is the VimpelCom company (Beeline trademark). Using Beeline TV as an example, today we will look at all the pros and cons of using IPTV at home.

To connect to Beeline TV Home Digital Television, you need to purchase or rent a set of equipment, the basis of which is the same digital receiver, or, simply put, a set-top box. The kit comes in two types: with or without a built-in hard drive. This determines whether the subscriber will be able to use services such as recording and subsequent viewing of recorded programs, as well as the ability to pause the program being watched. All these functions will be available only if you have a built-in hard drive in the set-top box. However, upon initial connection, the subscriber is given a set-top box with only a hard drive. Kits without a hard drive are used to connect additional TVs in the house. Of course, a kit with a built-in hard drive costs more.

The equipment will be delivered to your home free of charge by the company’s specialists and connected themselves, however, the subscriber must already have a universal payment card purchased in advance. It will not be possible to pay for the first month of use in advance, because it is the installers who give the new user his personal account number when connecting.

To be honest, this is not a very convenient scheme. With this scheme, even if you have the opportunity to pay, for example, via the Internet with a credit card, this cannot be done. It will not be possible to pay the bill either in advance or later - payment must be made exactly at the moment the installers appear in your apartment. For example, OnLime has thought out this process much better, and installers, when they come to the apartment, connect the equipment only in “test” mode. After this, the new user has several days to slowly pay the bill in any way convenient for him. Of course, such a problem (if it can be called a problem at all) will not affect regular users of the Beeline Home Internet service, who already have a personal account and money on it. Everything is simple: just check the box next to the new service in your Personal Account and select a channel package. However, in this material I would like to abstract from the knowledge that regular Internet users already possess and consider Beeline Home Television as a separate service.

So, as already mentioned, a set of equipment called “Beeline TV” is available for purchase from the provider in two variations: with and without a built-in hard drive. Let's consider a kit with a more functional set-top box inside, which is equipped with a built-in 320 GB hard drive.

Contents of delivery

• Decoder with recording function and hard disk (TV set-top box)
• Multi-function remote control
• RCA to RCA cable
• HDMI-HDMI cable
• Ethernet Switch
• 2 Ethernet cables
• Subscriber directory
• Device operating instructions

Having opened the Beeline TV box, the buyer will find everything necessary for connection; there will be no need to purchase anything additional. By the way, the packaging itself has not only a utilitarian, but also an informative function: the box with high-quality printing is “decorated” with brief user instructions in pictures. In addition to the receiver itself, the box also contains a switch (splitter), two Ethernet connecting cables and two cables for connecting to the TV - HDMI and RCA (tulips). The equipment is maximal, there is nothing more to add to the kit.

Appearance and connection

The console itself is small - its physical dimensions are only 290x200x55 mm. Such compact dimensions allow it to be placed anywhere and in any combination with other equipment - there is no need to allocate a separate shelf for it. You just need to remember the need to ensure sufficient outflow of warm air, because the set-top box gets slightly warm during operation. The heating, however, is not strong, so there is no need to take special cooling measures.

The decoder is manufactured by the world-famous leader in the production of network solutions - Cisco. By the way, we recently talked about how the company set up the production of these set-top boxes in our country. At the same time, Marketing Director of VimpelCom Moscow region Anatoly Smorgonsky said that Beeline TV is one of the largest customers of this equipment in Russia.

The Cisco ISB-7031 is a horizontal all-in-one, covered in a black metal casing with multiple ventilation holes. The front panel contains only the most necessary navigation elements. All keys are mechanical and they duplicate the main functions of the remote control in case the latter is absent. Here, in addition to the “Power” and “Menu” buttons, you will find only a four-way “joystick” with an OK key inscribed inside, confirming the entry of information. But the “Back” function was completely forgotten here, so navigation can only be done in one direction without room for error. Otherwise, you will have to start your journey through the menu items again. This is completely inconvenient, so it is recommended to control all functions of the set-top box only from the remote control.

In addition to the keys, on the front panel you can find several more indicators that notify you about the operating modes of the system, as well as a USB input. However, it serves exclusively official purposes, which is clearly stated even in the instructions. So you won’t be able to connect any external media to it. Neither the hard drive formatted in NTFS, nor the flash drive in FAT32 were read. Yes, in fact, there is no corresponding menu section where you can select your files either. The internal hard drive of the set-top box itself, modified by Cisco ISB-7031, has a capacity of 320 GB and is manufactured by Western Digital.

The rear panel of the Cisco ISB-7031 contains the following connectors:

• Ethernet - network port
• USB connector is used for service purposes
• HDMI - connecting the receiver to the TV using an HDMI cable
• YPbPr out - component connector for video transmission
• S-Video - video output
• eSATA - port for connecting external drives
• RCA (tulip) - outputs for video and audio signals
• Optical Audio - S/PDIF audio output
• Power - power supply input connector

Unlike the decoder of the same OnLime, which receives the signal through a public antenna, this set-top box connects directly to the Internet, because it works with IPTV. Consequently, if a user wants to use not only a TV, but also a computer, then he will have to build a small cable system. To do this, using two complete patch cords and a switch, the signal is branched in two directions and supplied to both the computer and the receiver. After all, no one will lay a second Ethernet cable in the apartment specifically for TV. As a result, the process of installing a Beeline TV set-top box turns out to be a little more complicated, but still quite feasible by the user himself. But the user receives two services at once over one cable. The only thing that can upset you during the installation process is the need to occupy two electrical outlets instead of one, because the switch also has its own separate external power supply. The set-top box is connected to the TV itself using the supplied connecting cables. If your TV has an HDMI input, you should connect the receiver using an HDMI-to-HDMI cable to ensure the best picture quality. If not, then all that remains is to connect using RCA-RCA “tulips”, again included in the kit. Turning on is done by pressing the Power button on the front panel, and a reboot can be done by using a switch embedded in the power supply cord, turning the device off and on again. Everything is quite clear and quite logical - you can figure it out without instructions.

Menu

The two largest and most frequently used buttons on the Beeline TV remote control are GUIDE and MENU. By the way, all the keys, both on the remote control and on the console itself, have only English-language labels, designations and icons - you can’t find a word in Russian here.

The Main Menu is extremely extensive. However, it has a well-thought-out branching system of points and sub-points, which are quite easy to navigate without the need to study the manual.

All main work with TV channels is summarized in the items in the “TV Channels” section of the main Menu. Here you can not only find the program schedule, but also in a few clicks select channels of interest by topic, search for content by letter, block individual TV channels or add them to Favorites.

Here in the main menu there is also “Video Rental” - a section where you can independently select a film or program and order them for viewing for a fee, which will be debited from your account. Sampling and searching can be done by a variety of characteristics, from “hit” or “new” to a specific movie title, or even by standard or high definition broadcast format. There was even a separate list of programs with 3D images, but it is still practically empty. The price of renting one film or program for a day varies from 50 to 100 rubles.

A separate menu item includes the option to subscribe to TV series. In this section, for a fixed monthly fee, you can subscribe to series, programs and popular TV shows of three entertainment channels: STS, DTV and Home.

The section called “Interactive” is interesting. It is of greatest interest to those who cannot tear themselves away from communicating on their favorite social networks even while watching TV. For such lovers of social entertainment, there are built-in clients for the most popular social networks Facebook, Twitter, VKontakte and Odnoklassniki. They allow you to view friends' posts directly while watching a movie or program in a separate window that opens. Right here you can “like” something, where would you be without it?

In addition, the section also contains obviously useful applications, such as Yandex widgets, for example. Weather forecasts, traffic jams or exchange rates can now be viewed on the TV screen without having to look at the computer. In order to kill time, there is even an elementary game - Sea Battle.

View

When you turn on or change a channel for the first time, the name of the TV channel and its number are displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds. By default, the channels themselves are numbered in a special sequence, where each hundred has its own theme. There will also be a 500th and even an 800th channel, but the numbering order can be changed at your discretion. To do this, use the menu for changing the list of channels and sorting them. You can even create your own list of channels available for viewing.

While watching, you can press the INFO button and see a brief description of the program being broadcast, the start time of the broadcast and the time remaining until the end of the show. In this menu you can also change the broadcast language or subtitles. Here you can select all related programs of a cycle or all episodes of one show in a separate list, which is convenient. Then you can program them all to record in one motion, after which the set-top box will begin to turn on and conscientiously record each required episode day after day.

The second most important button on the remote control after the Menu is GUIDE. Clicking it opens the TV guide window - a TV program for the week ahead, containing detailed information about all programs on all channels with the time of their broadcast and the ability to preview current ones. Clicking on any cell in this huge table will again open INFO and allow you to view information or immediately put a program that has not yet aired for a future recording.

An interesting feature called Video Wall. This is a navigation function that allows you to monitor what is on air on 4 channels simultaneously. That is, in addition to the main window, three more auxiliary windows open, and the interface helps you select channels by genre. This makes it possible to quickly find programs and movies of interest with previews in these three additional windows.

While watching any program or movie, you can use the Pause function and calmly step away from the TV for a while. In this case, the set-top box will continue to record the entire broadcast to the internal disk.

Upon returning, the user will be able to unpause and continue watching as if nothing had happened, with the ability to fast forward and rewind. The function is very convenient and will allow, for example, not to miss a single important moment during the broadcast of a football match. The maximum duration of the pause can be one and a half hours.

Recording and playback

Using the built-in video player, you can record up to four TV channels simultaneously and at the same time watch something else, for example an old recording. To start recording, simply press the RECORD button while watching. “Recording” will briefly appear at the top of the screen, and the red LED on the front of the set-top box itself will light up. Recording will stop automatically when the current program ends, or it can be stopped at any time by pressing the STOP button.

To program the recording of multiple programs at different times and on different channels, you can use the manual recording function with the ability to select the channel, time, date and storage duration. If you run out of hard disk space during the current recording, recording will still continue by deleting the oldest recordings. For records that are especially dear to your heart, you can set the storage mode “until I delete it myself.”

To find a recorded fragment, you need to enter a special menu with a list of previously recorded programs through the general menu or by pressing a separate RECORDED TV key. A list of recorded files will open, with those currently being recorded marked with an icon. Viewing recordings can be controlled by standard actions: Forward, Stop, Pause, Rewind.

Settings

The system settings menu is not too extensive; the path there is from the main menu. Here you can select the style of displaying the TV program in the form of a grid or list, change the audio language, select a picture display format suitable for the TV and configure the audio output to stereo or surround sound. From the same menu you can configure various locks or reboot the system using software.

Connection of packages and tariffs

When you first connect to a TV viewing service, you must choose one of two main packages: Basic or Maximum. The number of channels appearing in Beeline TV broadcasts is constantly growing - literally in November last year, Beeline announced the launch of another 20 new TV channels for Home Digital Television. And although the website still shows figures of 104 and 172 channels, in reality the basic package has already grown to 134 channels, and the number of channels in the Maximum package is now 199. The bulk of them are broadcast in standard definition (SD services), and 22 are transmitted in high definition (HD services). HD channels can be connected as a separate package for an additional fee, as well as several other packages, which are collected by topic: Children's, Cinema, Music, NTV Plus, Sports and so on. There is even a special package for adults with erotic content channels - Night. The choice of packages is wide and will satisfy any sophisticated TV fan, but the prices for individual packages are not cheap: from 95 to 650 rubles, with an average price of 300-400 rubles per package. This pricing policy clearly indicates that it is cheaper and easier to connect to one Maximum package and not be tricky. Because if you add the base cost to the price of a couple more interesting packages, it will become more expensive. The contents of the basic package alone are not very interesting, but this is a matter of personal preference.

Among the related services when connecting to Beeline Home Television, it is worth mentioning the possibility of renting equipment instead of purchasing it as a property, as well as the Multiroom option, which allows you to connect up to 4 TVs in an apartment to digital television for an additional fee.

It is worth especially noting another interesting offer from the operator, which is the ability to use the Xbox 360 game console as a digital receiver instead of the set-top box described in this review. However, you need to remember that in addition to the need to install additional software on the game console, you will also have to pay an annual subscription for using the Xbox Live service, and at the Gold level. The software itself can be downloaded from the Beeline website, burned onto a DVD and installed on the console. After installation is complete, this console will be assigned its own GUID.

Need I say that when connecting an Xbox 360 as a set-top box, you must already be a Beeline Home Internet user? In other words, no one will extend an Ethernet cable to your apartment if you express a desire to watch Beeline television via Xbox 360. It will only be extended if you are connected to the Internet, or if you purchase a Beeline TV set.

Results

During testing of the Beeline Home Television service, no malfunctions in the operation of the equipment, as well as “slowdowns” or “scattering” of the picture were ever noticed - the quality of the signal was not satisfactory. But the ease of control of functions and navigation through menu items are implemented a little doubtfully. Here you can recall the English labels for the buttons on the remote control: for people not familiar with the language, these keys will be difficult to identify without instructions. Also, perhaps, one of the disadvantages is the relative high cost of individual thematic packages, but their very presence and a fairly large variety are a definite plus. One thing remains absolutely clear: if watching TV takes up a significant part of your life time, then whatever digital television you bring into your apartment, it will undoubtedly eclipse today’s broadcast television in all respects. You just need to make your choice.

High-definition television officially appeared in our country not so long ago. Only in 2009 was the corresponding state standard approved, which defines HD parameters. One of the operators that can broadcast channels in a quality suitable for GOST is Beeline.

Necessary equipment

If you want to watch an expanded list of television channels without being distracted by screen ripples and other interference, you should consider connecting to digital television. Beeline is ready to provide appropriate services to each of its clients. True, a prerequisite is the presence of a fiber optic network from this operator in your home. For example, every user of the home Internet provided by Beeline can connect to one of the offered TV channel packages.

But to do this, you must first purchase equipment. Home digital television "Beeline TV" will become available as soon as you buy a set with a set-top box for your TV. It can be either with or without a recording function.

In addition to the main set-top box, the kit includes: a control panel, a cable for connecting to a TV and 2 Ethernet cords, and a switch. Of course, a device with a recording function is more expensive than a regular one. However, by purchasing it, you will have the opportunity not only to save interesting fragments in your memory, but also to press pause while watching programs, rewind them forward (backward), and return to the beginning of the plot you are watching.

Advantages of HD from Beeline

It's no secret that the usual picture is uncomfortable to watch on large screens. Therefore, very often, along with the purchase of a new flat-screen TV, most people think about purchasing a tuner. If you already have home Internet from the Beeline provider, then it will be much easier for you to connect high-quality digital television. It is worth noting that the usual one gives 486 lines, while HDTV - 1080. And thanks to the special perception of the image on the TV by human eyes, it turns out that the picture is 6 times clearer.

In addition to excellent quality, you get a lot of benefits. After all, Beeline digital television gives you the opportunity to choose. You can decide for yourself what and when to watch. Each client can choose the channel package that suits them. In addition, modern digital television allows you to view the program two weeks in advance directly on the screen.

Individual settings

Connection of TV program packages is carried out only at the request of the client. Each person chooses the tariff plan that suits him, focusing on the list of channels that will become available to him after paying for the relevant services. In addition, everyone connected to the digital television service can control the viewing of certain films or programs. For this purpose, a special function has been created called “parental control”, with its help you can block access to a number of channels or films from the available “Video Catalog”.

Every person who chooses the Internet and Beeline digital television has a unique opportunity. He can watch the videos he likes from the catalog, which contains various films, including those in HDTV quality.

How to become a Beeline subscriber

To be able to watch broadcast programs in excellent quality, you need to connect to digital television. Beeline provides the opportunity to buy the appropriate set-top box or rent it. In addition, you will also need a Wi-Fi router (switch), through which you can connect both a computer, laptop or tablet, and a TV tuner to a single network.

But the main condition is the presence of home wired Internet from this provider or the technical ability to provide it. If there are no problems with this, then all that remains is to purchase or rent the appropriate set-top box. By the way, for customers who use the Internet and watch television in HD quality, special payment conditions are provided. For example, from July 10, 2014, anyone can rent a tuner absolutely free. And the monthly fee for Internet and TV will be set depending on the selected software package.

Connection features

Having purchased the appropriate equipment, you can set it up yourself, or you can invite a specialist who will do all the necessary work. If you do not want to wait for a person from technical support, then information on how the connection is made will be useful to you. This is done as follows. First, a switch and set-top box are connected to the network. After this, a dedicated Internet line cable is inserted into any of the router ports. The next step is to connect Ethernet cables, the so-called patch cords. The presence of a signal is checked by the lights on the router. If this happens, then you can safely connect one patch cord to the computer, and the second to the purchased TV tuner. After this, you can connect the set-top box to your TV and watch your favorite movies and shows via a tuner from the Beeline operator. Digital, which is chosen by the subscriber at his own discretion, gives access to advanced features.

Further image settings will be made depending on what kind of TV you have and what screen resolution is the maximum for it: HD Ready or Full HD.

Channel packages

Currently, each subscriber who decides that Beeline digital television is suitable for him can choose what exactly he wants to watch. Each of the offered packages includes the standard 26 channels, including “Russia” (1 and 2), “ORT”, “RenTV”, “TNT”, “STS”, “Domashny”, “Carousel” and a number of others. That is, through the set-top box you can watch all your favorite channels that were available to you before.

In addition, the subscriber chooses a software package at his own discretion. So, Beeline offers to connect the following options. The Children's package includes 11 different channels for the youngest TV viewers. Movie lovers can subscribe to the “Cinema” tariff plan. It gives you access to 29 different channels in excellent quality. Sports fans will appreciate the “Sports” package, because it will give them the opportunity to keep abreast of all the events. Broadcasts are carried out on 16 additional channels. If you like to learn something new, then you will like the Educational package. 34 additional channels will help you discover an unknown world. For those who find it difficult to decide, the operator has created a universal package called “Mix”. It includes 75 channels of various directions.

But this is not all the possibilities that Beeline digital television offers. Channel packages can be combined. You can connect all 5 and get a 50% discount on your monthly service fee.

A universal remote control for all TVs and other devices can be called a great invention and a dream come true for owners of a large number of consumer electronics. For example, if the house has an audio system, DVD set-top box and other devices that can be controlled remotely, this device will be indispensable. The convenience of using universal remote controls is that all electronics in the house can be controlled from one remote control. In this case, there will be no confusion when searching for the desired control unit to turn on or off any device. But no matter how good the universal remote control is, it must first be configured, since without this procedure this device cannot be used either on the TV or on other units.

A universal remote control (UPDU) is a device that can be used to control a TV or other household devices. The device is purchased separately, and its price depends on its functionality. It is recommended to buy a control panel that has an information LCD display, since control from such a control panel is more convenient. Ideally, you can purchase a more expensive model that has a touch screen.

Setting up UPDU

There are a large number of universal remote controls for TVs on the market, and they all differ in configuration and modification. For example, if there are 50 UPDU models, then they will all have a different appearance and different configuration methods, including different codes for universal remote controls.

But if you compare the settings for some remote control units, they may be similar and applied to other models.

Setting up the SUPRA remote control

To set up the Supra device - a universal remote control for a TV, you should follow these steps.

1. Turn on the TV receiver and point the remote control towards it. But in advance you should find on the Internet the code for the PU corresponding your TV model.
2. Next, press the “Power” button and, while holding it, enter the code for your TV. The button must be held until the indicator on the control panel blinks 2 times, after which it can be released. At this point, the setup can be considered complete.
3. Check the operation of all device buttons. If they don't work, repeat the second step again, trying to enter another code found on the Internet.

It is also possible to automate the entire process of linking PU. To do this you will need:

• turn on the TV receiver;
• point the remote control at the TV;
• To switch the PU into automatic search mode, you need to press and hold the “power” button for 6 seconds - after this time the light on the PU should light up;
• if the automatic setup of the universal remote control was successful, an icon indicating the volume level will appear on the TV screen - after which the button can be released;
• check the functionality of the configured PU.

Setting up HUAYU PU

HUAYU UPDU is the most common device forLCD and .

We can thank the manufacturers of this device, because they took care of the users so that they did not rack their brains on how to set up the remote control for the TV, and on the back of the device they put brief instructions.

The instructions for the HUAYU control panel read as follows.

1. You need to press the SET key, indicated in the figure above by number 1. Without releasing this button, press POWER (2), after which the control panel will enter the programming mode. This is confirmed by the constant glow of the indicator on the device.
2. Pressing the VOL button searches for the desired command. The button should be pressed until the volume scale appears on the screen. When you press the button, the indicator will respond by changing the intensity of the glow.
3. To exit HUAYU debugging mode, press the SET key, after which the LED will turn off.

These instructions may also be useful in a situation where you do not know how to connect the UNIMAK remote control.

Setting up the BEELINE UPDU

Old models of universal Beeline PUs could only be configured on a TV set-top box, and they did not have buttonsSetup". Also, that launcher had complex settings. But in new models this key is present, and setting up the remote control has now become very simple. In addition, it can be used for various devices. At first glance, this is not a very large remote control with many keys.

Linking the Beeline remote control to Cisco TV box happens as follows:

• first of all, you need to turn on the TV;
• then press and release the stb key;
• simultaneously press the setup and c buttons located on the pub beeline, after which you need to wait a little for the stb key to be indicated;

Beeline universal remote control

• After waiting for the stb button to blink twice, the setup and c keys can be released;
• To check if the binding is correct, you can press the volume key.

To bind to the Motorola set-top box, in step No. 3, press the SETUP and B keys on the Beeline remote control. Accordingly, the Tatung TV set-top box is bound by pressing the SETUP and A buttons on the Beeline remote control.

In conclusion, we can say that there is no universal method for linking UPDU. Each specific case has its own nuances of linking the device to various devices. But sometimes there are similarities in the methods of connecting the control unit, which can be used after reading these recommendations. If yours and you want, turn your attention to a universal device. Its higher cost will be compensated by significant ease of use.
