    HDR 1100s installed and feed through coaxial to bedroom works a treat (thanks Graham).
    Only problem I have is that the 1100s remote doesn't work with my Marmitek XL infrared extender (works perfectly with the old Foxsat remote). Have HUMAX changed the remote signal type or something?
    Just one other thing - a piece of feedback to HUMAX: the OK and arrow buttons on the remote are so noisy! Whoever was it at HUMAX who thought this irritating clacking noise was a good idea?

    Pretty sure nothing has changed. All the Humax remotes will work with any of the kit. They can change modes so you can use more than one box in the same room. I would expect the original Foxsat-HDR remote to work the 1100S if both are set to the same mode.
    See
    https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/multi-code-function-hdhdr-remote-2
    You haven't set the remote to control the TV rather than the box have you ?

    This is weird: I can control the new box via the infra red extender providing I use the 'old' Foxsat remote, but not the 'new' 1100s remote. 1100s remote operates the box faultlessly when not going through the IR extender.
    Both remotes are set to setting 1 and set to control box, not TV.
    Odd eh?

    How very peculiar. Perhaps try setting the 1100s to one of the other modes. If you have a smart phone/tablet the Freesat app will control Humax freetime boxes remotely using WiFi.

    I have the new Humax HDR-1100S to replace Sky+ HD but it has no RF2 or Scart. It is located upstairs and the TV is wall mounted in room below and want to control it remotely like I did with Sky. I have a coax cable and HDMI running up stairs. What set up is recommended using the existing coax with a digi eye and I have been looking at a Triax Tri-link. I also want to send the signal to a second TV any assistance is much appreciated.

    Hi welcome to our forum.

    Either the Triax unit you mention or this one should do the job.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Labgear-MRX700-DigiLink-SCART-Converter/dp/B00LFMVLNW

    You will need a scart adaptor for the modulator end as the 1100S only has RCA sockets and a twin RCA phono cable.

    eg

    To feed two extra TV's you will need a sky compatible splitter or amplifier (capable of returning the magic eye remote control signals and passing 9V power.

    eg

    Cheers graham that sounds like the business never thought of the Scart converter. Will get it all on order and a couple of coax convertors for the Tri-link. Thanks

    I screwed up (senior moment) , you need a triple RCA cable.

    Yellow (CVBS aka Composite), Red - Right channel analogue audio, White - Left channel analogue audio.
