I was given a satellite receiver to test. It is Alma S2200, a simple basic receiver with horrible video quality.
Anyway, it has two problems:
1 - The remote control has few buttons that don't work. The OK button (the most important button) and the other up, down, left and right work but not so good.
I suppose I can order a replacement remote, not original for 8 Pounds + Shipment but it isn't really worth the trouble and I would rather try to open the original remote and clean the contacts, if this is at all possible, but I know that these remotes will not work again after I open them.
2 - The factory default password which is supposed to be "0 0 0 0" according to the manual. doesn't work and I am not sure if the owner has messed it up or it is just a fault in the receiver.
Anyway I tried several other well known codes to no avail.
Is there an easy way to set it back to factory default without inputting 10,000 passwords?
Thanks for your help.
