Digital Cable "Box" Service Mode Menu

May 31, 2007 2 Replies

Hi,



Recently I had trouble with my digital cable "box" (Motorola from Comcast) and a service man came. Unfortunately, I didn't see everything he did, but when I came in the room, he had a service mode menu display on the TV. I am familiar with service mode menus in televisions which require a certain sequence of key presses to access.



Does anyone know how to access the service mode menu of the Motorola digital cable box?



Thanks in advance, Brad



Before you type your password, credit card number, etc., be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC.



Power-off and menu?

For the diagnostics, turn it off, then press OK/Select within 1-2 seconds. There is nothing you can change. Just lots of technical info.

For more information, even if it's not the DVR version, you can get more info in the Wikibook:
