Default How do you reset a Pace Di-300

I am in a pure ntl area(Dublin) and need to reset the pin on this box as its set and I dont know what it is. But unlike other boxes I have done I cannot see any jumper or battery to make the Di-300 reset, is it possible?

Thanks

Hi SeaMouse
Yeah have Bk etc, the box works fine its just the pin thats a pain. Not sure if its the same in the UK but here some of the sky movie channels ask for a pin during daylight hours.
I have been reading about libby/netid and have a funcard that I can program. But even if I managed to program a fun card I still have to get the box to reset to get it to read the card? Right/Wrong. IF I can get this box to reset and because I am in a pure area then it should reset the pin without a funcard?

Cheers

mate ur behind the times, the update for pin boxes was over a year ago, it has always asked for a pin thats why you can watch 18 cert movie in the day time

to be honest i have never had to use a reset pin, as all my paces where made from a working macro all same pin

you can make a netid funcard and theres a option to add a pin at same time. Did work for me when i first started out

Hi Rawsy
Even if I made up a new card with bk/ird/netid and new pin I still have to get this info(netid+new pin) from the card onto the box Yes/No?. As this is were all this sort of info is stored, on the box. IF so dont I have to get the box to go into reset mode to accept this info from the funcard I make up?. IF so this is where I am stuck as I am not sure how to get a Di-300 into reset mode

SeaMouse, what do you mean when you say this

"to be honest i have never had to use a reset pin, as all my paces where made from a working macro all same pin "

Also can you confirm for me is the user pin stored on the box or card. As regards jumpers/battiers etc there is none on the Di-300 as far as I can see.

Havent got round to doing any jtaging yet, what is OCD. ITs looking like I will have to stick netid or similar onto a funcard and run it. But can anyone confirm for me if I need to get the box into reset mode for it to reconise the funcard and run the programs on it. IF so thats where I might have a problem.
Also on the back of this box is scart/tele fone socket/psu socket/ cable input socket and a usb socket. Any ideas what the usb is for

Cheers
