Troubleshooting.
1) If your second TV is already connected to your sky/sky+ box make sure the coaxial is not connected to other equipment or isolated using tv outlet plates, boosters or other such equipment, if it is you may need to purchase a bypass kit to let the remote control signals pass back to the sky/sky plus digibox.
2) Check the RED Led is showing the power is reaching the TV Link unit, if the LED is not on, then check the coaxial is properly connected including the outer screen, if necessary you may wish a trained installer do the installation for you.
3) Further help can be found on the digibox interactive menus, the sky website or naturally you may wish to contact us.
