Hiya im new to the forum... Ive just received my new Eurovox Max 3 box... Ive read the instructions, connected everything up an now it says "channel not currently available" on the instructions it says to press exit on the remote an then continue... But this isnt working... Is this a problem with the box or the remote or me?? lol

I just wanted to plug it in an all be done then i can enjoy... But that doesnt seem to be the case

Can someone help me please

the instructions you get with the box are ***** m8,you need to do a power scan.Go into installation press yellow for "powerscan" change the mode from normal to full then press ok.takes about 30 mins to scan but you should then have all channels.
ps make sure your cable feed is connected to the rf in.

Thanks for the reply ronster...

I think the problem is with my remote... Ive just spoke to the person i bought it of (ebay dealer) an they are happy with me sending the remote back an getting a new one sent out asap. So hopefully that is the only problem...

I read a thread on here somewhere earlier that there has been alot of problems with remotes for the eurovox... Is this a continuous thing?? Im beginning to think getting this was a bad idea

never had no probs with my remotes in 15 months m8,look at your remote through a camera phone and the sensor should light up when you press a button, the remotes probably ok and your box has probably took a few bangs in transit

OMG i never knew that... I just tried it an its flashing as you said. So does this mean my remote is working? If so why isnt anything happening when i press buttons??

ronster · 15-05-07, 05:28 PM

the remotes fine m8,tell your your supplier that you want to change the box if its brand new you shouldnt need to start messing with it to get it working,you just need to scan

kizzy07 · 15-05-07, 05:36 PM

Yeh its brand new...

I dont understand it though, the box is working on its own. An the remote is working, but they aint connecting together... I get to the bit where it says to click exit, then set it all up but the remote wont let me press exit.

Is this definatly the box? Ive spoken to my supplier an he said its a faulty remote an is sending a new one out today...

ronster · 15-05-07, 05:47 PM

i would guess its the box m8 but wait till the new remote turns up and see!!!
you could always try reflashing it

kizzy07 · 15-05-07, 06:06 PM

How you do that?? Bear in mind... My remote doesn't connect to the actual box.

By the way thanks again for your help, much appreciated.
