    Try (on the 5000T):

    “F” button
    Settings
    System Settings
    Power Management
    Power Saving Mode set to Off

    Strange. I can turn it on and off with no problem.

    I take it you mean pressing OK after you move the blue selection from On to Off

    When Power Saving Mode lights up On, can you not move up to Off?

    Hello Rexleroy, welcome to the forum.

    Assuming you have unplugged box (have you unplugged & tried this?) and still problems, maybe try a factory reset should fix problem & may save you time in long run to trace fault? But remember to note down your recording schedules as these are cleared + also take a note of App passwords. Recordings will still remain on hard drive. Hope you get it resolved. John L

    Presumably you are referring to the Freesat box as the issue with the 5000T has been resolved.
