It also has a pleasant user interface and some additional setup options missing from other low-end receivers. Perhaps one of the best features is the ability to flash the unit using a USB Thumbdrive, eliminating the need to connect the unit to a PC with a legacy serial cable.</big>== Flash Process Hiccups ==== Flash Process and Software Versions ==Sometimes it takes a few minutes for autoroll to successfully find the key. After you flash the unit and hook it back up, simply be patient and wait up to 10 minutes before you are concerned there is a problem.=== factory binaries ===If you just flashed the receiver you may note the signal is not available right away.

Do not do blind scan on circular sats auto scan only. The first time setup only you will need to: Go into your Menu, then to System Settings. Now scroll down to User Options. Click on that and then turn on Channel Number by SID and Sort by SID. My first attempt put a “2” in front of every channel eg. 2400, not 400. Then Press the “SAT” button on your remote and then select the satellite provider name, this sinks up channel numbers. This was the easy fix for the channel # correction and only have to do the "SAT" button fix from now on after every update. EPG = channel guide listing downloaded. For best results to populate EPG. Try putting channel on 200 or 195 and let it sit for about 5 minutes and it should populate about 3 days. But it is impossible to get more then that. Because some providers do not do 7 day EPG.If you just flashed the receiver you may note the signal is not available right away. Just wait a few minutes for the black screen to go away. Again, this is likely due to the software at work. You may have to reboot after several minutes (wait 10 minutes) for reception.[[Category:Tangible Product]]
