It should be just Satellite,then the channel No etc. Allthough you can see a module is fitted,it may have been disabled to allow the connection of an external satellite box such as Sky etc.

If you are technical,I can send you some fitting notes for the module,and you can check it out.

Analogue satellite broadcasts are still availble from Europe,until 2012  I gather,but you will need a 60cm dish for these,and ordinary "Sky" type dish won't do.

Nick is correct you should just need to press SAT. Had a few MX's with these fitted all but one had been disconnected.

Craig🙂

It sounds like it's been disconnected then... All as I get is a black screen when pressing sat.

The technical notes would be nice, thanks. Is it just a case of plugging it back in?

Ben

Ben, it will show a black sreen if there is no input.
Press Sat, then on the black screen press menu and see if you get anything.

Thats what I was doing originally.... pressing the combinations of buttons to try to get the menu to show after I had already pressed Sat.

Would the Sat button do nothing if the module was disconnected?

I think from memory,if the sat kit is disconnected,you can program one of the Scarts for an external sat kit.The Beosat RX would work with this set too.

Yes,the LM kit connects via several multi connectors that fit into labled sockets.

I have a spare working kit here,fitting notes and service manual.

Ok,

I cracked it open to take a look. There are only three of the multiplugs occupied (red circles) and several with nothing connected, maybe 6 or 7 connectors.

If there is only meant to be the three connectors in use, then clearly there is a problem, which I don't think i'd would bother trying to fix... with analogue satellite being turned off soon, I don't think it's worth it.
