    so long as the box is in fully working order you should be able to. However if its been unplugged for a long time it might be worth doing a forced software update, only do this once you have checked it's fully working.

    to do a forced update, remove the power lead for 2 mins
    then find and hold the backup button on the front of the box.
    whilst still holding the backup button re-insert the power cord...

    after a few seconds a message will appear on screen and the front of the box will light up.
