getting a "----" on receiver display after loading latest bins...

first ... better check if you have a clone!


if its a genuine machine try this:

--download the All In One Loader and set it up http://www.dssgeeks.com/forums/all-o...694/index.html (http://www.dssgeeks.com/forums/all-one-loader-t694/index.html)

--connect ur receiver to ur PC using the NULL MODEM cable!

--load ur receiver (PC>STB) with the latest factory file for ur specific model.

you might need to load it few times for it to work.!

then once u have a 00.00 display ...

--proceed with loading the latest bin ONLY!

--do antenna setup & other settings (as explained in the How to's & Guides)

--Autoscan each SAT individually.

another method when the above fails...!!!

If you have access to at least two viewsat (same model ORIGINALS not cheap clones!), and a null modem cable

you can use the following copying process (CLONING) to copy all the software from one ORIGINAL to the other ORIGINAL.


- Have the unit that you want to make the copy of connected to your TV with the null modem cable plugged in.
- Connect the other end of the null modem cable to the other unit you want to receive the image (plugged in to power, but not powered on).
-On your remote go to Menu ---» System Information ---» Receiver Upgrade ---» All Information.
Once you press OK... turn on the power button at the back of the receiver you want to receive the image.
The Main S/W, Channel Info., Satellite Info., and Key Data will all be transferred without you having to change and setting or do any channel scans.
