Blade BM 8000 combo help
Hi
all you good people out there I need a little help with my new blade BM 8000 combo.
I need to get this working on the VM network as I have no dish.
ok, I have connected my box to VM and the line is live 100%, also connected internet,
I have entered Menu gone to installation = blade on line and updated channel list for my area,
when I then go to any channels I cannot get anything not even FTA = screen just says NO/bad signal. I have auto scanned and still get nothing.
I also cannot access the 9991 menu
System information is this
S/W version : 1.31 (Sep 7 2015)
H/W version :1.00
Boot version :2.90
CH Version :F016 +STD001.
Any help appreciated in advance.

Software looks like it's not patched 1.24(Apr15)* is what I use.

Would agree may have been taken from official BM site, not being able to access 9991 normally wrong software
Blade online shows only Sat lists not cable, scan needed.
Menu - Installation - Tuner2 scan - Scan Mode = Power Scan - Scan will look for TPs first then channels patience needed
Symbol either 6952 (telewest) or 6887 (ntl)
Step = 8 this can be lowered if some TPs are not picked up
VM feed, end connection on back of box

Re: Blade BM 8000 combo help
Tuner 2 normally shows after terrestrial scan press on terrestial scan as earlier boxes/software did show terrestrial.
Top of Tuner 2 shows
Scan mode
Terrestrial top Shows
Channel
Failing that check out the Blade Media site that u have a BM 8000

The software could also be a problem
