Maybe this will help in future...

Here are a few tips if you are having difficulty flashing:

I would advise everyone to read a set up guide before flashing. But, since people have been having some problems, I have revised this to provide more detailed information. But this is not intended to be a substitute.

1. Make sure you use the proper serial cable for your receiver:
Fortec and Pansat use a straight through cable with DB9 females on both ends.
The Blackbird uses null (crossover) cable, which crosses over pins 2 and 3.

2, With the power turned OFF, connect it to your computer and receiver using the serial connector. Use serial port #! if you can.

3. If you do not have a working serial port, you must install one or use a computer that has one.

4. Use the appropriate loader.

5. Select the file. Make sure that it is the correct flash for your receiver.

6. Select the COM port your receiver is connected to. If you do not know, what it is try #1 first.

7. Enter the correct model name and number. ..example (pansat2500)

8. Check off the correct function box. Your choices are boot, flash or channel list. To FLASH your receiver you would use FLASH. Most flashes do not require a separate boot; so do not load both separately.

9. Turn ON the receiver power from the back switch. (so obviously it is OFF prior to this step)

10. As soon as you see the lights flash,very first light -- IMMEDIATELY press download.

11. Wait until it COMPLETES and reboots.
................................................................................ .........................................
Here is how to recover from the "Night Rider" (flashing lights):

1. Try re-flashing the factory boot/flash again using the above directions. That gives you FTA ONLY. Follow the above procedure.

2. Then, when that works use the latest flash (AUTOROLL) to get the scrambled channels.

3. Download a channel list and/OR do a channel scan on each sat.

4. When flashing, be sure to wait not only until is says done/complete. But you need to wait until it reboots and actually goes to a channel number.

Found this ,but I don't know how much truth there is to it....Could be BS,I have no idea.

ATTENTION..

DO NOT USE FORTEC ULTRALIFE AUTOROLL AND PANSAT AUTOROLL, IF YOUR RECEIVER IS A CLONE. IT WILL KILL IT WITH NITE-RIDER LIGHTS.

THERE WERE 2 FILES SAYING "NAGRA2" FOR BOTH FORTEC AND PANSAT ON SOME OTHER SITES. DO NOT USE IT-ITS FAKE..WAIT FOR AFTER APRIL 27....

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot the pansat 2700a? I just installed it and I'm trying to enter the current keycodes. Whenever I go to 'parental controls'to get to the screen to put in the codes, it keeps prompting me to change my password again and again and again...
The only options on the parental control screen is: old - new - confirm new. Someone told me to go to "secondary password" and enter in my current password but there is no such option.
How do I get past this?
Am I overlooking something?
I've already flashed it with the "X-87BL_050315_101_api" bin file.
Please help.
Thanks.

Chris the above is for U...it appears some of the 101 bins are corrupt..


Pansat 2700a setting key code manually

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm familar with manually setting the key codes on my Pansat 2500a. When doing the same steps on a Pansat 2700, I encounter a totally different Parental Control screen that I get and can't get past to where you enter the key codes as I've done on the 2500a. Are the steps to manual change the key codes different between the 2500a and the 2700 receiver?

hmm I've been waiting also to see if someone would jump in here and answer the mans's question as I also have the same question. I've been looking all over and see no posts addressed to accessing the CAS System Menu for the 2700A. I had assumed it was the same as the 2500A but have yet found a way to get a 2nd PIN Code to popup in the Parental Control. Have good type 4 list loaded, good signal and quality, good picture on free channels. Flashed the X-87 Bl 101 autoroll bin and done several hard reboots and can not get keys to roll. Does the box need to have the Key Code Fuction and Default Key turned on after loading the channel list like the 2500A. Someone point me in the right direction. Thanks

After a couple of hours of research and reading numerous posts including other forums I have found the answer to the problem I was having with accessing the CAS System Menus. Hopefully this will help some of you having the same type problem.

First of all, any channel list downloaded needs to be a stb type 4 list downloaded with the mod gtool done by BL ver 1.8 for the 2700. Using any other tool will corrupt the echostar package in the bin and although the channels appear to work the autoroll s/w in the bin will not work right. Second, there appears to be several versions of the X-87Bl 101 bin floating around with both having same name and version number. One will work and the other will not. My friend did not download his version here and it appears he picked up a bad version elsewhere. With the correct bin and proper type channel list loaded with the correct tool, the CAS System Menu access will work the same as for the other pansats.

This one was a little difficult to put a finger on as there were two things going wrong and the unit appeared to work correct by being able to pick up clear channels indicating the channel list loaded correct although it wouldnt get scrambled pictures and there was no 2nd PIN showing up in Parental Control to access the CAS System Menu.

Setting up the Pansat 2700

This will be a brief down & dirty “How to” for the 2700 with files included.

Lets get at it,
Download the attached file 2700a.zip to your PC and unzip to a folder of your choice.

Remove Pansat 2700 from box. Attach to PC via RS232C null modem cable.

From the folder you unzipped files to, start & run the application GTRom Loader v3[1].35 [pansat2700A]

Click “Bin File” and select the 2700 autoroll bin X-87BL_050315_101_api(N)_

Turn your 2700 on via rear switch. When you see the first green LED light up, Click “Download”

Wait for unit to finish flash, DO NOT INTERUPT!

When receiver reboots and displays “ON” proceed to next step of loading a channel list

NOTE; The channel list provided is working5 by Wingnutt101 for LEGACY lnbs ONLY

To load a channel list on your 2700, start & run the application Ch Editor187 (Pansat 2700A)

When Pansat Channel Editor 2700a appears, click file, open, select the channel list working5-legacy-2700

At the top of the screen click where it says “Tools” and goto “Connect to receiver’ Then click “Download”

Wait till finished and unit will reboot to channel 001. Your Pansat 2700 is now flashed and a Legacy Dishnet channel list has been loaded.

Disconnect receiver from PC and install to dish & TV connections.

Enter “Menu” and goto Antenna setup and make the necessary changes of the DiSEqC settings to match your own configuration.

Exit menu and select Channel 300, The “Downloading Data” should appear on your screen, and after a few minutes (up to 10 minutes) TV should appear.

Enjoy your new receiver J

this thread is about the 2700,NOT about DTV dishes..so post in the correct place next time,or start a new thread..READ the new Ecoustics RULES thread here..

If U must ask what satellite(s)to point at,then FORGET using that particular dish,..its VERY VERY complicated to align..

BTW...a receiver is a receiver,the make/model of the receiver has nothing to do with the type dish!...any FTA will work on just about any dish..

Is X-87BL_050519_105_api(N).bin the newest file for the 2700? My last file I tried was X-87BL_050315_101_api(N) and I scanned on echo 7 and 8.6 and it was showing channels during the scan but when complete showed "scrambled channel" on the screen. My location and quality are above 80%. I'm using the oval 23'directv with dual lnbs. Do I have to go to channel 300? or just do a blind scan?

Now tell me,that Kneegrow is NOT an Ecoustics mod, paid to create havoc here,play the clown,entertain,run these forums so as to draw internet hits for google for the sponsors and Ecoustics,and delete informative posts to save bandwidth and keeps people coming back to ask the same questions over and over (more internet hits at 10 cents each = alot of money),...ITS ALL SO OBVIOUS!...HE'S A MOD HERE!...and a SNITCH/MOLE for DTV,Dishnet,BEV and the FCC...U all think he's funny,but he's got your IP logged and your email addy (if U're stupid enough to register here)and handing it over to the authorities...

All FTA autorolls,except the coo*lsat released last night, are down...Dish has done a minor ECM..atmega is also working..don't worry,nothing is broken or damaged...BUT new autoroll bins will be needed..

Just enter your keys manually


If you cant get into your menu because your FTA box is frozen downloading the new key, just turn your receiver off, then on, then immediately go into your MENU screen.


Thats it!!

BTW...there are new WORKING Pansat autorolls released Saturday morning at www.hashhu.com and www.al7bar.t k

Also the 2700 manual input of the keys is the same way as the 2500..
