does anyone know how to enter the programming mode, to check your signal strength? i saw the installer do it by pushing buttons on the front of the box but didn't watch close enough-

I belive you need to hold down the "diamond" button for 3-4 seconds and then press another button (don't remember which one)

You need to hold down the enter(center of the arrows) button for 3-4 seconds until the led lights up and then press the "diamond" button

there is a bypass led and an email led indicator below the display window, however the display window always shows the clock not channel numbers-this box was just installed 2 wks ago as part of time warners "digital upgrade" they came back and replaced it then rechecked signal strength-because channels above 100 would periodically freeze up or not come in at all, also box would shut itself down-they are blaming condominium wiring i changed all exterior cables to rg6-trying to monitor the signal strength to report the fluctuations i think they have a leak-

no amps no splitters- in fact even using s-video out of the box to tv-guess there are more than 1 version of this box-i've tried every combo of pushes i can imagine here-including the remote,the pwr button on the box, which is what most companies do-cant get into diags thanks again though-
