You can no longer pair a viewing card to a different Sky+HD Box I'm afraid.

Re: watching catch up
Please Note: Sky+ is now a legacy/obsolete service that Sky are replacing with their newer services: Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q (Satellite TV is approaching end of life so is not a long term solution)
The only use for an unpaired Sky+HD box is to view the freesat channels

I'm afraid that's an old default message. In reality pairing hasn't been successful.
