I'm sure its been said before, but may not be that easy to search for, so here goes:

  • Press Services Button on Remote
  • Press 4 System Setup
  • Press 0, 1, Select to go to hidden Installers Menu
  • Option 4 RF Outlets
  • Change the RF Channel and save
  • Do not Switch the Second Outlet power supply on unless using a remote eye or line powered global amp

Small Warning

If you are doing this whilst watching via you RF outlet, you will loose the picture when you change the channel as it makes the change straight away.

If poss. make the change whilst viewing via the SCART.

LOL, yes, very often I'll change the channel whilst watching the linked TV, a good way of seeing quickly whether the frequency is clear. You have to memorise the key strokes to save the setting, so that you can retune to it. :)

No problem as far as the Digibox is concerned BRD, but there seems little point in supplying a 9v power supply to a coax cable that is not powering anything, ie, going straight into the back of another TV set or self powered amp. The outlet still works without the power supply, which only needs to be toggled to on if you are line powering an amp or TV Eye.
