Mico 311. - Help please

ali.h (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Thursday, 17th February 2005, 17:24

:/ Yesterday, I unplugged my machine from the satelite box to use it elsewhere. When I plugged it back in, it showed messages like channel, etc but wouldn`t record. Message was "no signal". Today I resorted to unplugging it and holding down the power key, only message I get now is "TV ON?". I`ve pushed and pulled abd swapped scart plugs, but still showing "TV ON?". Anyone got any ideas. Cheers. Ali

It sounds like the recorder wants to do a first time installation

From the manual...

PROBLEM SOLUTION
Your recorder does
not respond to any
button being pressed
and the displayshows
IS TV ON?

Recorder in initial installation mode: Switch on the TV, switch over to the DVD recorder socket.

Hi, thanks so much for responding to my cry for help.
However, I don`t understand exactly what you mean by
Recorder in initial installation mode: Switch on the TV, switch over to the DVD recorder socket"
switch what over to the DVD recorder?

On the TV, press the "AV" button to get to the TV SCART input the DVD is connected to.



If we don`t take care of the customer, maybe they will stop bugging us.

Hi,
I couldn`t get anywhere so I connected the Mico straight into a TV (no Sky box).
It went through its installation. When that finished, I took it back downstairs, plugged the scart into the top scart connection in the Mico and the other end into the sat box (as shown in the instructions). However, problem is back to the same one I had last night - it reads "No Signal". I`ve tried it on the AV buttons and tried clicking the monitor button on the remote. Still "No Signal". Just don`t know what to do next. No doubt, it`s going to be something either simple or straightforward to someone else, but whatever it is it just escapes me.
What should I do? :(
