Using a Sky+ SKYHD remote with older Sky box

I've just purchased a new Sky controller from Ebay (revision 8) which is the same as my SKY HD one. I wanted to use this on my 2nd box in the kids room which is a rather old SKY Digibox.

Can I do this or have I wasted my cash?

Sky+ & HD remotes will not work with standard non Sky+/HD boxes. Sky+ remotes will work HD & visa versa.
