Hi there,

I am wondering if any1 else is experiencing this , i tried to watch some of the movie channels last nite and it is now asking me to contact Virgin to setup a PIN? Surely i dont need to?
I have a PACE d14000 with a Atmega fun card? Any ideas how to get roud this one.
Thanks in advance

You usually have to go into the engineers menu and set the pin on the first screen.

hi

Thanks for that,

Engineers menu?

How do i get into that? this is the normal pin that you would normally enter to watch an 18+ movie for example.
I am in a pure area.

Thanks,

power off the box,hold down the channel up and down buttons power up the box still holding them and keep holding them till the screen goes blue or the box says diag at the front(if it says that but no pic go to 1 of ur t.v's aux channels it will be there)

If it has ---- in eng menu (You will see PIN on one of the early pages at bottom)you can set it using the Ch+, Ch- & select buttons. If its already set it will have **** and will already have had a pin set. Try 1234 and 0000, these are the defaults. If its not these you can reset box by pulling Red Jumper & removing battery inside for 30secs, replace and power up into eng menu-set def freq for your area then you can set PIN as it will be ----. You will then need to change the NetID as this will default to 09999.

If you cant acess the pin pull the red jumper and you have to choose a pin in eng menu manually.
