Re: no signal to new v6 box

The IEC connector goes into the COAX IN port of the V6.

Re: no signal to new v6 box

OP needs an IEC adaptor, not an IEC lead.

Re: no signal to new v6 box

I don't see why you have posted an image of an RF connector, not supplied by VM, when the IEC connector supplied by VM is the coax adapter for the V6 and plugs into the COAX IN socket.

OK. If that is the lead that was provided (the OP didn’t post a picture) then I stand corrected.

My V6 is connected to the coax by an RF connector like the one I pictured as an example. It was fitted by a VM tech.

Re: no signal to new v6 box

It might be that the techs are supplied with RF connectors (which they incorrectly call flyleads as an aerial flylead has a male connector at both ends to connect a TV to a wall socket), but VM supplies IEC connector leads with a male and female connector to customers.
