It is perfectly possible for the SKY Plus remote control to operate a regular SKY digibox with a simple procedure. The reasons for wanting to do this are that the SKY Plus controller is a more comprehensive unit and is also able to control the volume / Mute of not only a television, but also a selected number of AV amplifiers. This is excellent news for thos of you with a home cinema setup.

For SKY PLUS > SKY DIGITAL, Press:
TV • Yellow & Select until LED flashes twice • 0 • Select • Sky
