SOURCE: can,t get sky to connect

Hi.

I assume that just the TV has been replaced, and that there is no problem with the satellite connection, disk orientation, LNB and receiver box. Eventually test again the satellite signal using a spare TV.

To connect the new TV:

Turn off Sky receiver and TV.
Connect cable from box to TV (possibly HDMI, alternatively component or SCART).
Turn on box first.
Turn on TV.
If Sky signal is not displayed, try using the Source/Input button on TV remote to select source.

If there is still no raster, test using a different connection cable and ensure that box is working and tuned.

Regards.

Ginko.

You can't connect your TV direct to the dish. It needs to be connected to a sky decoder to be used.

If you've got Freeview built in to your TV you'll need to have an external aerial fitted if one isn't already their.

Is their an external aerial and I'l look into the setup procedure for tuning the TV.

SOURCE: Hello, I have a sky dish and decoder, but before

David.
Are you using the same output from the LNB on your sky dish?
ie one cable??.
If you are it will not work you need to use a seperate output,
if you cant do this,you will need to change the LNB to a multi output one.
By the way there is 30 volts present all the time from your receiver to your LNB, that is even while switched off.

Hi my Son has upgraded his old tv in bedroom to a Bush smart tv model no DLED32287HDCNTDFVP. I installed the channels first time. I have freeview channels except I cannot get the Sky channel to show?

When you say you have freeview channels, and then say you cannot get Sky channels this is not enough information that you have provided, but
I presuming in addition to freeview channels you also have a Sky Satalite receiver which is no longer connected to your Tv or your sons tv Either way Sky satalite have 2/4 lines which means you can have four viewings providing multi rooms is bought from sky, and additional boxes are fitted.
Or you can have 1 sky box main Tv and no the spare cable feed at the back of the sky box you can feed another cable to another tv from that same box but it will be same channels But you can now change channels using magic eye receivers etc, in any room.

But the question I believe is you had freeview but no long can receive sky channels the information is a little vague but hopefully I have helped a little

Hi Jim, your nearly there, all you need to do is go into the tv menu and move from DTV to the old type channel numbers and then find the bit where you can manually tune the tv to channel 68.
Have a sky menu picture running and you will see it come in.

I have a acoustic solutions lcd37762hdf television ,the screen turns black and white after 30 minutes while watching sky through the television ,but is ok while watching dvds and the freeview

Check you video leads, there may be a bad connection on either end. Removing and replacing may fix it otherwise I would suspect the Sky box as the TV uses the same decoder for most of the video inputs except HDMI of course or S-Video.
Hope that helps.

Sky is saying there is no signal. Turn box off and on again. I have done this but still get no signal. I have freeview only channels on my sky box

Hi,

Firstly, you don't get Freeview through your Sky box. If you are watching Freeview channels then it's from an aerial connection. If you are getting a 'No signal' message on your TV, the first things to check are:

1. Check that you have selected the correct input source on your TV. If you are using a 'co-ax' connection (standard aerial cable) you will have to select this manually from the remote. If you are using a SCART connection, all you need to do is turn the Sky box off and back on - but you've done this already.
2. Check the connection from your Sky box to your TV - disconnect it, check that the cable and connectors aren't damaged then re-connect it.
3. Check the cable between the dish and the Sky box. Unplug this from the Sky box and reconnect it.
4. Check that your viewing card is correctly inserted. This is unlikely to be the problem as it doesn't usually result in a 'no signal' message, but remove it and re-insert it anyway.

Finally, it's very windy tonight and this can affect the Sky signal if your Sky dish isn't properly secured. It's possible that your dish has been moved by the wind and is no longer aligned with the satellite. If none of the above work, you should inspect the dish as soon as conditions are safe enough to do so. If you can move it by hand, it can probably be moved by the wind.

Try these tests and post back and I will try to assist further if the problem has not been resolved.

Regards,
BElectric

if you have connected your sky box as per instructions, putting the aerial coax to it and a fly lead(as in a male to female coax as used on a vcr to tv) from the output to the tv's aerial input, then disconnect the aerial from the sky box and put it back to the tv. The skybox will weaken and even loose the signal.
