good news! your reciever has been patched before so you can use it just like you would use a normal 5400.

best thing i can suggest is have a read through the help stickies mate, this should explain everything step by step, any problems just post your question

doing a spring clean can sometimes speed things up a bit.

Thx for the info zad,probably the best thing to do,found a video tut on how to do it,but i think s/w may have changed,will keep searching..........

cheers

[zad]

not much has changed since day 1 mate, a few bits of obsolete software now and a few to replace them but the fundamentals are all the same.

its been a while since i did a humax but im sure there will be plenty of people to tell you the best tools to use

Thx zad,keep you informed...........:)

I'd try the easy way first - latest emu / latest settings / latest keybin /programmed fun or silver or gold etc with any old keys in the card slot for irdeto atr / make sure in toh/ config that you are set to card+emu

Try something more fancy like a spring clean later on if you aren't happy

Loader tools:
emu - hdfsmart
settings - hnfsmart [set dropdown model menu in configure/options to 5400 not 5400z
keybin - dsr9500cw 5.6 - under ? set to humax default & select com port [load with stb already on]

nice help grumpyy:D:D

right used turbo suite,updated everything seemed to go well BUT getting no quality on finding sats high in strength and thats it,i know dish is ok.......

any ideas:confused:

[voith driver]

hi mark666,

sorry grumppy, bumping in, if i read your post correctly, you are getting no channels, and that you have a high strength but no quality.

now there maybe a couple of reasons for this, so is your dish a motorised dish, and when you say the dish is ok, is this tested on another box???

we need to eliminate various things so its best to start there

voith

[grumpyy]

Check how you are set up here:
menu/installation/service searchng/antenna settings
[or some similar menu route - I'm doing this from memory]

[mark666]

Just like to say to everyone helping,

Getting to like this new challange,right put my old visionnet back on,switch it on,last channel was a fta on 19.2,went straight to it and cleared.....:confused:

cheers guys

[zad]

psu could be an issue (and why someone sold it so cheap)

if you loose the 30v rail on the psu the box will still work but the tuner will not, quite a common fault im afraid.

if my mind serves me correct im sure i have posted inormation on how to get this sorted somewhere, a bit of a search should take you to the information.

however if you cant find it (i cant) let me know and i shall post it up again

[voith driver]

hi mark666,
good, that's cleared up the dish, (though you did not say if your dish was motorised, or diqesc1.2 capable)

as Grummpy said, next thing is to check your tuning to make sure the humax is looking at the same thing as your other box,

as Zad has said (and i had in mind) was it might be a psu problem,(not much of one so do not worry) but we need to make sure the box is pointing at the right thing so that we can eliminate setup problems, seeing its a new purchase it will be setup differently to your area.

hope this helps

Thx for reply marco,

so load original firmware back on then latest toh s/w am i correct m8........

[grumpyy]

Yes

[mark666]

Yes

ok cheers give it ago,fingers crossed.........:rolleyes:

[voith driver]

hi mark666,
sorry mark, I must have a gentle moan, this thread has now gone in two directions, earlier your posts suggested that you were not getting anything at all, as you stated you were getting no quality on high strength, now you state you are/were only getting channels but FTA the reason I am pointing this out is that both problems have significantly different answers.

I may have missread something up above, but i have just gone over it twice so i am sorry if this was so, but maybe if you could tell use exactly what the original problem was, and we can start afresh

all the best
voith

[mark666]

lol think you are losing it somewhere,

when i got it was only clearing fta channels,when i updated the toh got nothing after that........

cheers

[ripley]

just a simple question ,mark, have you got a card in your receiver,just wondering,ripley

[mark666]

cheers for reply ripley,

no card m8.........

[voith driver]

ahhh another step on the learning curve, this will have no bearing on the lack of FTA but the lack of a card with a 6/1 file on it will be the reason why you are not getting anything to clear

Ahhhh rite,bloody nuisence not got one,got a gold card though(100's tbh)so not gonna work without one then,not even fta,nothings straight forward even on an old box like this..........

oh well,cheers

[voith driver]

sorry Mark, you misunderstood me, FTA needs no card, but the other stuff does, i think a goldy will do if you can find the file (you only need the irderto bit)but i can not help with that, sorry
