To use the Guide on your Beyonwiz you will first need to install and setup the device. This will involve connectin the Beyonwiz to your antenna connection, your TV and your home network. This will also include the scanning of channels and setting up a favourites list so that you can set the order of the channels in the guide. There are detailed instructions for these steps in the manual that was included with your Beyonwiz.

  2. Click on the "TV Recorders" tab.
  3. Under the "Add an Interactive device" section enter a name for your device in the box marked "Device label" (e.g. Loungeroom or Beyonwiz or DP-S1).
  4. Set the device type to the name of your Beyonwiz recorder.
  5. Click "Add"
  6. The page will refresh and you will get a confirmation message at the top saying "Device Added" and a new box will appear just in case you want to add a second device (if you only have one device to use with IceTV Interactive for remote recording purposes just leave this new box blank).
