Hi everyone,

I recently bought a DVB-T setup-top box from someone, but they have not supplied a manual to install the unit. I've contacted the seller but he is just not responding and now I'm stuck.

I've search everywhere for it but I'm wondering if anyone has access to database that I don't. Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

The part number is : 65500406957

Here is picture of the unit:

It tells you in the link you provided that instructions are not included with the kit and you will have to print them out from the "Aftersales Assistance Portal" - whatever that is.

I've actually looked on the american version of ASAP - but I can't find the manual. I'm completely out of options now :/

Go to your friendly dealer and quote the EBA number and get them to give you print out from ASAP.

Thanks for that - but they've said that are unable to get the manual - I'll try going to the next dealership I pass but I think they don't have access to it.

No wonder why you can't find it they say it's EOL (End Of Life), I will see what I can find

You may want to contact Bruce Miranda, I think he's in the UK and can help, see his thread:

I believe the part which I've received is still not EOL - 65500406957 where as the part ending in 55 is.

I've been speaking to bruce, but sadly without the manual this item can't be used, as we've got no where to start from on the pin layouts :/

Thanks for your input.

Have you had any luck with finding anything on this item? I've tried to get some help from Paypal to the seller - but they haven't even given it the time of day.

I haven't had any luck yet, I thought Bruce would be a great resource (he's one of the electronics gurus here) but if he doesn't know it means the info will be really hard to find. I'll keep looking if you will.
