    Brand new A780 keeps scanning channels

    Hi, just flashed a KV A780 & instead of the display going to 0000 ready for a channel scan, the LED display repeatedly scanning ch nos from about p006 or so to ch 254 ish(going thru nos v quick)
    Is there a way to reset box? there is obviously a fault on it.
    Has anyone come across this? thanks, any help appreciated.
    PS. have another 780 so not new to them

      Plug out box for 5 minutes
      Try unplugging LAN from box, see will it allow you to scan
      If necessary re-flash box & return to supplier if it doesn't respond

        Cheers Kenny, I'm up todate with SW, thing is box wont let me re flash as its stuck in this scanning mode.
        I need a reset on remote or something similar.

            Turn off box, connect to PC, hit START on loader, TURN on box.
            Might be better to try this with older firmware & update on-line
            if successful. Some people turn on box, hit START, turn off box,
            Turn on box, when flashing. Try this a few times it may work.
            If not back to supplier
