Any help would be much appreciated guys cheers.

not sure about this box but think you might need to do a factory reset first

Hoopy, Have you flashed the box with the correct firmware before scanning?

Not done that mate, thought it would have been flashed when i got it . quite new to this.

Is there anyway i could flas it without the Serial Null Modem Cable as i dont have one?

[Lanxman]

No sorry mate you have to use a null modem cable for that box, Can't be done via usb. Also, If you have a fairly new desktop/laptop you will need a null modem cable to usb adapter as well as a null modem cable. Boxes no longer come pre flashed.

Yeah i have the null cable, but my pc is quite new, dont have null modem cable to usb adapter.

So i will need to buy one of those? to get it working.

[Lanxman]

Yes, unless you know someone who has a really old pc or if you have an old one lying about. Failing that you will have to buy one, You can get them from maplin's but they're about £20 from there, you should be able to pick one up cheap on flea bay

[camelv]

sorry m8 thought you had already flashed box ,

[hoopy09]

cheers guys will need to get one 2moro.

[Lanxman]

No worries mate, If you have any issues with flashing when you get it have a look round the forums there's loads of help in this topic.

On the nick jnr 2 channel press info twice, take a note of the freqs it will show at the top left hand side.

Now go to Menu, Installation, press OK on User Installation, Enter pin 0000, Highlight the Freqs you noted before by pulling down on your remote then press OK so a tick appears at the side then press manual scan which is the "blue button". Leave it to scan usually takes around 30 seconds then exit back to nick jnr 2 and now the channel should be working..
