cables and the amplifiers by fitting the PROSAT1EYE directly on the RF2 output of an
old style Skybox or for a new style Skybox via an I/O link product. Ensure the RF-2
Out is turn on as above. Cover the front of the Skybox so the signal from the remote
control is ONLY received via the PROSAT1EYE fitted at the rear of the box. If the box
works then the problem lies in the cabling amplification of the system. Find out more

Introducing
the
PROception proLINK22 ‘RF replicator’ New Sky set-top boxes such as the DRX595 and
DRX890W do not have the familiar aerial input, RF-1 and RF-2 connectors. These RF-
loopthrough facilities have been replaced with the new ‘I/O PORT’ – a small round
connector (10- pin mini-DIN) which allows an external ‘RF replicator’ (modulator) unit
to provide similar distribution functions. Applicable to the following models
