USB Receiver and Navigator Bind Procedure

Submitted by support on Mon, 2009-12-07 21:10

In the event that your Navigator has become disconnected from the USB Receiver, you will need to follow the following steps to rebind or reconnect them.

The easiest way to determine whether or not your USB Receiver and Navigator have become disconnected is to look at the light on the USB Receiver after plugged in. If the light is flashing RED, then the USB Receiver has entered a mode where it is looking for a new Navigator to connect with. If so, please follow the steps below.

    2. Press and hold, at the same time, the touchpad button and the glidetv logo button icon button until all buttons blink twice.

      1. The Navigator will continue to blink once every second, a total of 7 times, to indicate that it is waiting for instructions.
      2. After the 7th time, if no command is received or an incorrect command is received, the power button will flash Red and the remote will return to its previous state.
    3. Press the glidetv logo button icon button once.
