Guys sorry to post another thread but im totally lost ive been searching for hours and reading all sorts.

I have a DITV-1000 Phase 1b

It has always not had intereactive available.

Anyway, today it wouldnt load the channels, so i was advised to force update via shorting the battery.

I did this and now I can get it to boot up.

I can get in Engineers menu OK and all is green.

Every time i power on via a powercycle

it says powering up or whatever for 2 seconds and then turns the whole STB off?

Please help someone?

thanks in advance

have put the batt on properly, also check the lead, it could be a power fault

superc3 · 02-07-07, 08:38 PM

i never took the battery out just shorted it for 20seconds?

the power seems ok as it just goes into standby mode and then wont turn on via the remote or stb??

anyone have any ideas or links to what to read ive searched my heart out and now cant recieve nothing not even freeviews

so whats it stuck on now then the powering up screen?

5av1dg312 · 04-07-07, 03:00 PM

you should have a little red thing on a 1000 box then pull that off and leve it off for a bit, its a red thing near the battery people call it the red jumper pull it off and try again, and on boot up again set your frequency to your area and set your pin in the enginners menu then reboot hopefully it sorts itself out mate

yeah i pulled the red jumper. how long and should it have a cable stream cioming in not piower??

and if i turn it off at mains and turn on, it boots to virgin powering up screen for two seconds and then back to standby that cant be resolved?

After the virgin screen it may take a while to update, just leave it on.

superc3 · 06-07-07, 01:16 PM
