CBL, MTS, and STB buttons perform the same function controlling the set top box. This button should light up red when pressing buttons on the remote. If any of the button options do not light up red, then select the CBL, MTS, or STB button and proceed.
1. If no video is showing, confirm that the television is on the correct input. Refer to the remotes on page 3 to identify which remote you have to determine where your input button is. To change the input, press the "tv/"video" button. If you are unsure of what input the box was installed on, you can refer to the sticker on the back of your remote or on top of your set top box. This will tell you what room the remote belongs in, and what input the set top box was programmed on.
2. If your remote is not changing channels or responding to the buttons that are being selected, please refer to the STB, MTS, or CBL button to ensure it is turning red. If it is not red, press the STB, MTS, or CBL button and then proceed with changing the channel, etc. That button should now flash red as you push buttons on the rest of the remote.
3. If video still doesn't appear, you should unplug the set top box. To do this, find the small power cord plugged into the back of your box.
4. If you turn your TV on and see a blue screen that flashes "press OK to watch TV"; this means your TV is ON, but your set top box is not.
Press OK on your remote, this will turn the power to your settop box on. Video should appear shortly. If this doesn't work, make sure the STB, MTS, or CBL button is lighting up on the remote *NOTE: The label depends on what remote you have, refer to the remote section to see which remote you have.
4. If your TV says that the signal has been lost, this means that the set top box could have lost its connection to the main equipment. You should first try to unplug the set top box (see power cord picture on page 4). If this does not resolve the signal problem, please call the Business office for further troubleshooting.
