hi, i got my box key!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanx to every one that helped me get there mainly lincsat, reddiesel, and jimbo.

is there a tb switch for pace box di4000n, and having the 50db reverse path blocking filter out of your box to access on demand and watching ppv movies will the company virgin media be able to block your box mac address so it can not be used anymore and your box will be black listed, the infomation below is from the tutorial know your box from bigmaq toolbar.

How to ensure talk-back has been cut off.
>>

• press TV ON DEMAND button and select SETTINGS == > DIAGNOSTICS and take a look at DHCP STATUS. If it say’s “RETURN PATH IS OFF” then TalkBack has been cut. If it say’s “RETURN PATH IS ON”, then TalkBack has NOT been cut

so if having the 50db reverse path blocking filter plugged in it should have dhcp status: return path is off, so i dont have to cut talkback do i.

i appreciate it if someone could help me out, cheerz

Yes the filter blocks any feedback down the cable. If you want to fit a switch you just solder two pieces of wire one each side of where you cut the track and connect to single pole switch, which you can buy in maplins etc, any single pole switch will do, and either drill or cut a hole in back of box to fit, be carefull you dont damage the circuit board, or in the lid if you use long enough wires, or just tape switch up with insulating tape inside box making sure it cant short out anywhere.

hi, reddiesel if i tape the wire up inside the box i cant get access to it to turn it on and off can i ?

[daviddawn]

can you fit a switch to any cable box, there is no tutorial or pictures anywhere is there for a pace box 4000? and can you just use any ordinary wire as i have some wire left over from soldering, please could you tell me witch single pole switch to get as there are loads on ebay with different prices i just want a cheap reliable one that going to do the job switching on and off talkback. cheerz

[reddiesel]

No thats for occasional use, you take the lid off, there is a switch you can get from fleet computer systems that works from the remote control.

Any switch will do theres hardly any voltage current there, same goes for the wire. i dont think theres any pics for 4000 ,4010. theres one somewhere for 2100 sammy but thats different.

hi, reddiesel which switch is it in fleet computer systems is it the 512 chip or 1024 chip and what remote control would i need as i have the ordinary one but not sure how that would work as there is no button to activate and deactivate talkback. cheerz

[reddiesel]

No mate theyre 8 legged chips for sammy 2110 and v box, ive just had a look and cant see them listed, maybe hes stopped doing them, they were quite expensive.

ok lol, i will stick with the single pole switch correct me if i am wrong here, on the di4000n box there is only 1 talkback track so i cut this into 2 and with 1 of the cut ends i solder onto a wire and the wire leads to the swith witch i just connect so there is only 1 wire needed. cheerz
