Confirm your model

HB-1000S is a Freesat smart TV box; unlike HDR-1100S, recordings need a paired USB hard drive. Confirm the label before following recorder instructions.

How it connects

  1. Satellite dish Satellite coax
  2. HB-1000S HDMI / USB
  3. TV / USB hard drive
Simplified signal path, not an installation or rewiring diagram. Follow the linked manual for power connections, grounding and your exact hardware revision.

Use the Freesat feed and TV output as installed. A USB hard drive must be paired to this box for recordings; internet supports on-demand features but is not the recording drive.

Lights and messages

  • Record whether live TV works and whether the paired USB drive and recordings appear in the menu.

A light is one clue, not a complete diagnosis. Match the indicator’s label and the on-screen message.

Before buying parts

  • Do not format or unpair a drive holding wanted recordings: the manual says both actions erase them. Check the manual before purchasing a replacement drive.

These are compatibility notes and official reference links. Confirm the fault and exact part before buying.
