Reset sky Q now no satellite signal

Hi All,

 

Need some help please. Disney was showing a blank screen on some movies.

 

I read in another discussion that if you reset it it works.

 

I tried that and now have no satellite signal. Can anyone help?

hi @Skystu1 

 

Do you have your own dish or a communal system ?

 

If a communal system and reset your box the chances are that the LNB type is set incorrectly


You need to check/change the LNB type to SCR - this is in an engineer's menu

To access it :

press Home
Scroll to Settings - but do not press enter/select at this point
Press 0 0 1 in sequence followed by the Enter/ select button
you should now get the engineer's menu

Select the LNB Type & set to SCR if necessary

After changing the LNB type power down your SKY Q box and restart it for the change to come into effect

Is there snow or heavy rain in your area as that can also affect satellite signals.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

The weather is pretty bad, cloud & rain, but I went through the power off and unplug routinf & it is OK now. Strange that the Q box could get itself into such an non-working state while sitting doing nothing overnight
