Possible Solution
The QIP receiver may have received a software update and may not power on while
the new software is being installed. Try again in a few minutes.

Verify that the AC power cord is connected to the QIP receiver and an AC
outlet. Unplug the QIP receiver from the AC outlet, plug it back in, and then
press the POWER button.
•
If the QIP receiver is connected to a switched outlet on another unit, verify
that that unit is powered on. Unplug the power cord from the QIP receiver's
AC outlet, plug it back it in, and then press the POWER button. It is
recommended to use an unswitched outlet, if possible.
•
Press the POWER button on the QIP receiver front panel instead of the
remote control. The batteries in the remote control may be depleted.
•
Verify that the remote control is in "set-top" mode.

Verify that there are no obstructions between the remote control and the QIP
receiver. Aim the remote control directly at the QIP receiver front panel, not
the TV or VCR.

in front of the QIP receiver and not too far to either side.
•

button on the TV has not been pressed.

button on the receiver has not been pressed.
