Watson can be used on various terminal devices (computer, TV, smart phone or tablet) through your wireless home network. We recommend a 10 Mbps broadband connection for using the Watson service and a 24 Mbps broadband connection for watching HD channels. Watson functions on mobile devices running the Android and ios operating systems. A Watson application which enables mobile use is available from Google Play or App Store. 1.1 TV Stick setup 1. Insert the supplied batteries into the remote. The battery compartment door is at the back of the remote. The markings on the compartment show which way the batteries should be installed. 2.

Attach the Micro USB cable to the Watson Stick. 4. Connect the other end of the Micro USB cable to the USB power source. Connect the power source to a wall mount. If the TV set has a USB port, you can also connect the USB cable directly to it without the power source, but we recommend using mains current If you received an IR sensor with your TV Stick, connect its cable to the TV Stick's IR port. Use the supplied sticker to attach the IR sensor to the TV set so that the IR sensor is facing the remote. 6. If it is not possible to use a wireless connection, use a fixed line connection. Connect the network cable (RJ45) to the Ethernet port of the Watson Stick and the other end to a network terminal. 7.
