Initial Troubleshooting: Check the Batteries
Before diving into more complex solutions, it’s essential to rule out the most straightforward issue: dead batteries. Here’s how you can quickly determine if this is the problem:
- Test the Remote: Press several buttons on the remote control and observe the red LED light on the remote. If the red light does not blink, it indicates that the batteries may be depleted.
- Replace the Batteries: If the red light is off, replace the old batteries with new ones. After replacing the batteries, test the remote again.
- Still No Light? If the red light remains unresponsive even after changing the batteries, the remote control itself might be defective and you may need to purchase a new one.
If the Red Light Blinks but the Remote Still Doesn’t Work
If the red LED blinks when you press buttons but the remote still doesn’t seem to control your TVIP box, the issue may be related to the remote control’s IR (Infrared) signal. Follow these steps to resolve the IR signal problem:
- Reset the Remote Control’s IR Code Page:
- Locate the “Setting” button, which is typically found to the left of the “S.INFO” button.
- Hold down the “Setting” button and simultaneously press the “Recall” button (located to the left of the “0” button).

2. Reprogram the IR Remote Code:
- Point the remote control directly at the TVIP box.
- Press and hold the “S.INFO” button for approximately 10 seconds. This action will reset the IR remote code page.
- After about 10 seconds, you should see a confirmation message on the screen stating, “IR remote code page was changed.”
By following these steps, you should be able to restore functionality to your TVIP remote control. If the problem persists, it could indicate a more serious issue with the remote or the TVIP box itself, and further troubleshooting or professional assistance may be required.
With these guidelines, you should be able to resolve common remote control issues and continue enjoying seamless access to your IPTV services.
