COX Mini Box Instructions

COX Mini Box Instructions

  1. Plug in the Mini Box
    First, connect the coax cable to an active cable outlet and to the "Cable from Wall" port on the Mini Box.
    Then connect the HDMI cord to your TV and the Mini Box. If your TV doesn't have an HDMI port, then you can use another coax cable instead. Tune your TV to channel 3 or 4 and ensure the toggle switch on the Mini Box matches the TV channel. (This method only supports standard definition.)
    Lastly, connect the power cord to an electrical outlet and the Mini Box.
    TIP: Plug the coax cable into a centrally located cable outlet or use the same outlet where the old device was connected.
  2. Activate the Mini Box
    Turn on your TV. Then using your original TV remote, press the source or input button and select the correct HDMI connection. Then wait a few minutes for the activation to finish.
  3. Set up your new Cox remote
    Follow the steps listed on the back of the Cox remote to pair it with your TV.

FAQs

Why isn't my Mini Box working?
Try rebooting it— just unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait about 10 seconds, then plug the power cord back in. It may take a few minutes to fully reset. Also, make sure all of the connections are tight and completely plugged in.

How do I fix a "No Input" message on my TV?
The input/source might not be set correctly. To fix this, press the "input" or "source" button on your TV remote until you select the HDMI connection that matches the port your HDMI cable is plugged into on your TV.

How do I make the text on the Guide larger?
Press the "settings" button on the Cox remote and follow these steps: Guide Options → Other Settings → Guide Text Size → pick the size you want → press the "select" button on the remote. Visit Cox.com/remote-help for more support and troubleshooting.
