how to update

[paintslinger57]

can you update the pansat 6000hxc with thumb drive or an SD card?

If you look at Woodcreekers link on this thread, it will give you lots of information on upgrading;

Pansat Home Website

Dont forget to come back on and let us know how you get on.

ok so i have copied the bin file into the firmware folder but no channels are comeing in they show up on the epg but that is it

If the file is in a directory on the receivers hard drive, you have to still update the receiver.

You can check this by Menu -> System Information

That will tell you which file the receiver is running.

Then if the channels are not cming in, let us know your dish type you are using.
We also need your LNB type. LNBs are called "the eyes".
Read on the casing and let us know what is printed on the LNBs.

Then also include the settings you have in Antenna Setup.

Once we have that information, we can help you get running.

copy the unzipped bin to the harddrive in the files area,return the drive to the reciever,menu/upload file from harddrive.

ok i have uploaded the file but still says scrambled or missing chanel the satelite is set up and works on a pansat 250 sm and had worked on a pansat 3500 still can not seem to get it working i get the free channels like nasa and ch 100 is the fix bad or am i just missing a setting also the satelite strength is greak on all channels

They may have to hit 8282 and go down and select Set default key and hit Ok and Exit out
This will jumpstart the Autoroll program
The receiver may behave strange because the % countup screen is not there on the latest bins
I recommend they have the Time Zone right, Summer Time is ON
And have the nearest State and City entered for Renumber Local CH
After 5 to 10 minutes the picture should come up

Or else they have the settings incorrect.
If the above doesn't help ...
Tell them to do a Factory Reset with the remote
(Menu -> Factory Setting -> 0000 four zeros -> Ok)
Then tell them to make the settings from a working receiver the same on the Pansat 6000HXC
Then blind scan each satellite
Then do the above

It will eventually work.

Good Luck !!

TP Auto Update should always be ON generally ...
Unless we instruct you to turn it OFF for some reason

The file you should be using is bin file 3203

Here is the link --> Latest Fix New Bin File Pansat 6000HXC 6000 HXC 3203 Full EMU 2-26-09

Maybe try to reboot it from the rear power switch.
If it just sits on Scrambled or Bad Channel ...
I would try to Set default key again and let it sit on channel 200 for awhile again.

And, did you do all the stuff in post #8 above ?

Good Luck !!
