SA 8600 Version 1 & Version 2

SA 8600 Cable boxes have 2 versions that this test chip will work with, Version 1 & Version 2.

This chip will work with both Versions of the SA 8600 cable box.

The New Version of the 8600 Cable Box is referred to as Version 2. There are 2 differences between Version 1 and Version 2. The first is that there was a capacitor added to the main board, between buttons 6 & 7. If the Capacitor is there you have a Version 2, if the capacitor is not there, you have Version 1.

The second difference is that the there is a square SA logo that was also added to the left side of the name on the front red lens in the lower left hand corner. The first version 0f the 8600 does not have the Logo on the lens and capacitor between buttons 6 & 7.
