INTRODUCTION

®
Congratulations on receiving a Motorola DCT3412 High-Definition
Advanced DVR Cable Terminal. Motorola has merged the extraordinary
features of digital cable - the seemingly endless programming options,
interactive program guides, video on demand (VoD), and commercial
free, CD 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). HDTV provides up to twice the color
resolution and up to six times the sharpness of standard-definition TV.
The DCT3412 enables a direct digital connection to consumer audio and
®
video devices through IEEE 1394 DTV and HDMI 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 cable terminal 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.
To determine which digital cable features are provided in your area,
please check with your cable operator. They will be happy to provide
instructions for these optional services.
