TECHNICAL FAQs

No signal when it rains?

Due to the nature of technology, all satellite dishes are affected by the weather and the signal does drop out when it rains. Signal will restore once the weather eases. If your signal is dropping out when it is not raining or during only light showers, then your dish may need re-aligning.

Can I transfer my smartcard into any other decoder?

No, the smartcard is paired to your set top box. Do not transfer it to others or do not insert it into any other decoder.

How to insert the smartcard?

Put the smartcard into your decoder in arrow direction with the chip facing down.

*Do not remove the smartcard from time to time as you may damage the gold chip.

I will be transferring to my new home location. Will the signal still be okay?

Yes, as long as the connection of your unit is okay and the dish signal is at its peak. Charges will be shouldered by the subscriber upon request for re-installation.

What if I want to install the unit myself, will that be fine?

Yes, you may. Installation guidelines will also be available upon purchasing the unit, but it's not advisable.

What do I do if my unit is lost or stolen?

Call your dealer/agent immediately to DEACTIVATE your lost or stolen unit. This will help prevent someone from using it. In the event that you can't find your unit, you can purchase a new unit from your dealer.

What to do when your TV says "E05 Unknown Smartcard / E16 Smartcard Failure"?

What to do when your TV says "E14 No Authorization" or "No Access"?

If your box is newly installed, you need to contact your dealer to activate your unit.

If your load has expired, you have to re-load your unit. Prepaid cards are available from your dealer.

What to do when your TV says "No Signal"?
