New member Username: 6273909Post Number: 3 Registered: Jun-05 | Tiger You don't really need a channel list. Load the 1.28 and then do a blind scan of the satellite. Be sure to get a 30"+ dish, LNB, and motor because if you don't you will be missing a lot of really good "true free" TV. |

kevinpsulli Unregistered guest | taking the chance to hopefully not get LT pissed off....I was wondering if anyone could tell me just how many dishes one would need to actually have a whole weekend of tv viewing without having to adjust a dish to a different frequency...do you get the nfl ticket or is this cool-sat really just for dishnetwork? the first post I read said a guy was getting 2000 channels...is this possible and if so how many dishes does he have? again, I did read all posts from the last 4 months, hopefully I won't need an LT reading class and there is a kind brother out there that can help me...thanx! |
|
LK Unregistered guest | First reading is a good thing,it stimulates the brain,like doing execises for the heart and muscles...I believe U are referring to LK,not LT..one satellite can get about 200 channels,it depends upon the satellite...go to BTW...if U read the past 4 months ,then U would already know this info...don't BS anyone here..If U read for 2 hours here U would have known these answers.. |

Black Hawk Unregistered guest | All channels from US providers are scrambled and U would need to work off-line with your local users to figure it out. Good Lucks !! |

Anonymous | This is H.S. Can you folk tell me, what's the different between cool4000+ and the Pro. Cause I can not tell the difference. So other could know also. Thanks a bunch all. H.S. |

chicago Unregistered guest | The Coo*lsat 4000 Pro is an improvement on an already superb product line, its predecessor the 4000 Plus has excellent video quality and working EPG (electronic program guide) for Dishnet. The main difference between the Pro and the Plus is that in addition to the outstanding quality and great hardware and firmware features of the Plus model, the Pro also has Dolby Digital (AC-3) audio output and S-Video output and it has dual composite A/V jacks (A.K.A. RCA jacks). The additional outputs improve audio and video decoding and quality as well as add versatility to the unit for use with almost any audio/video display system from a standard TV hook up to the most advanced home theaters. |

New member Username: 6273909Post Number: 4 Registered: Jun-05 | I have a question about my cool sat 4000 pro. When I am watching the IA5 97.0 W satellite my box will reset, meaning the screen will go blue, and the channel number will flat line. It will come back on 1-2 seconds later and work fine. I have not had this problem on any other satellite. |

Anonymous001 Unregistered guest | From documentation of Cools@t4000 pro, it has DiseqC 1.2 control. But I tried to connect Cools@t 4000 pro with SG2100 motor together. It doesn't work. I guess that Cools@t pro doesn't have the user interface and functions to support DiseqC 1.2. Doesn't anybody have any experience or suggestion on this? Thank you. |
|
anonymous002 Unregistered guest | to anonymous001: I have a different motor, but my cools*t 4000 pro seems to work fine with DiseqC 1.2 . I have noticed that if I leave an external signal meter in line, the motor will NOT work. Go to motorized dish settings in the menu and choose the DiseqC 1.2 option at the bottom of the list, and it should work. |

LK Unregistered guest | IT all depends upon how many dishes, LNB's and size of dish,types of LNB's, and using a motor...need to go to lnygsat. com and decide what channels and satellites U want...then buy whatever hardware U need to get them! The more,the bigger,the better..the more guns and ammo U have the more U can shoot!....same theory.. |

|
chicago Unregistered guest | about the coo*lsat! First you need to do a factory reset. Then connect the box to the computer with your cable. Power the unit up, use a program called Coo*lsat proloader v[1].2.1 . Then once you open the program click on Auto detect , it should find your FTA and what version software that is on it. Then click on the browse tab and look for the bin you downloaded. You need COOLSAT4000_133p_20050902.stb. Make sure you are on the software tab, then click connect, then start . Let it complete the download, don't interrupt it. You are now ready to test. Hook it up to the sat and do a blind scan or you can use the channel guide of your choice to download to your FTA. Just use the same program and click on the channels tab. Good luck hope this helps.. |

Laurabunny Unregistered guest | Hello! I have a Cool'sat 4000 Pro and the day before yesterday I downloaded 1.33 firmware on it with the help of Loader 2.2. Result - there is nothing coming at all. When I do auto scan, the system does not see any channels at all. What's that? Did I kill the receiver? Please help, I am a girl and do not know much about this stuff. Can it be because I used the wrong cable - DV9? |

Bronze Member Username: 99centrobotIllinois Post Number: 11 Registered: Jun-05 | You need a RS232 cable (serial cable)which it should have came with already. You can pick one up anywhere for under 20 bucks. But if it really downloaded like you said you obviously have the correct cable. So i'm at a loss...try it again. http:keybin.com/index.php? has all you need if you need to download anything again. FYI~My laptop did not have a serial port only a USB if this is the case with anyone you need a serial to USB cable which will do the trick but you might need to add a port manually in your device settings. I found mine at Circuit City for around 30 bucks. |
|
Bronze Member Username: 99centrobotIllinois Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-05 | one more thing...you need to do a factory reset first then a blind scan not a auto scan...that's what I did. I have everything but p0rn..even ppv. |
|
Laurabunny Unregistered guest | Tried again. Reset everything to factory settings, downloaded 1.33 (it shows wthen I look at the system info on the receiver, so I assume that the download went fine), did a blind scan - still nothing. Any other ideas? |
|
New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 3 Registered: Jun-05 | Laurabunny, sounds like a silly suggestion maybe...but check your cable connections. Make sure your lnb/dish cable is connected to the lnb or IF in port and not antennae in or IF/ lnb out. If it looks correct then unhook it and visibly inspect the end, there should be thin copper wire sticking out a bit. If it got broken off or bent it will prevent your getting a signal. If that is all correct could your dish have been bumped? I'm assuming your dish was previously pointed at the correct satellite. I hope this helps, any questions post again and we'll try to help. Dave |
|
Laurabunny Unregistered guest | Cable connections - the lnb/dish cable is in Lnb input. CHecked the integrity of the cable all the way to dish. Copper wire is sticking. We fiddled with the dish a bit, but no matter how we point it (with the help of a compass), nothing's coming. The dish WAS pointed correctly before I downloaded the 1.33. |

New member Username: ScooterguyMesquite, Texas Dallas Post Number: 8 Registered: Jun-05 | Hey Dave, I'm having the same trouble as Laurabunny... I've got the stb to download good the ndf for the channels downloads also. My problem is that on my signal strength monitor at the bottom of the screen...all I get is red bars. I just recently sold my last working dish and acquired some different lnbs from a friend. Could they be bad by chance? Don't know how common that is. Just curious... about ready to just subscribe. help if you can. |

New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 4 Registered: Jun-05 | Well folks, now I'm in the same boat. I got a cools*t pro with the card reader and "subbed" card from gosatellite.com. It arrived overnight as I had ordered but I cannot get it to pickup any channels. all but the preview and dish info channels are scrambled. I get green bars and high signal strength on 99% of the channels but all say scrambled. Scooterguy if you are getting redbars then it is a signal issue. And your new LNBs could be the problem. I however don't know which lnbs work with the cools*t. I have a twin dishnet digital lnb. It does not say legacy or 500 etc. on it, it identifies one lnb as 119w and one as 110w, says dishnet and digital satellite lnb. I have tried reprogramming this thing at least 2 dozen times using instructions and files found here and at Al7bar forum. I don't know what is up. If someone who has one working can help I'd appreciate it. I am in Ohio, using an oval dish with dishnet digital lnb, getting strong signals from both 110 and 119. What channel list should I be using? At what point should I install the card reader upgrade file? What is the newest best file for the cools*t pro? For an stb called the easiest to program yet, this one is getting a bit frustrating to a lot of people here. Thanks Dave |

Kraftee Unregistered guest | A couple of questions. Which one of the STB loaders works best with the Coo*lsat 4000 pro ? I've looked at some of the links in this thread, and d/l'ed a couple of different ones, however, I havent found a site that has the "proloader" or "loader 2.2" versions, or does it really make a difference which one I use ? Also, I'll be using a Dish 500 with integrated LNB ( currently pointed at 110 & 119 ), for the N2 stream. Is this a common combo, or am I about to experience a problem ? I'm an old hand at plastic, alas, those days are gone. FTA is all new to me, and my STB will be here soon, so I'm trying to straighten out the learning curve ! TIA for your input !! |

New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 5 Registered: Jun-05 | Finally I stumbled on at least part of the solution! I decided once again to reload the factory bin and start again. I loaded the factory bin then the 133p 20050902 bin. I thought I would try a blind scan instead of loading a channel list. When I hooked the stb up to the tv it instantly had channels loaded! about 2tons of channels that I can't get along with the 200 + or - that I do get. After trying to wade through them all I deleted all channels and scanned first 119w then 110w. I was shocked to see the complete list of channels from 7 sats show up again! I went to the NDFedit program to edit the list but I cannot find how to delete any of the excess sats or channels. I have well over a thousand channels to search through to find what I want. I will continue to look for a way to fix this but for now I'm pretty happy to have got it working at all. My advice is to use stb tool v 1.5 to load the 133p 20050902 bin and nothing else until you hook up your box and try it out. I suspect that loading to factory bin did not remove the channel list I loaded last. Carefully inspect any channel list you think of using and make sure it does not have any sats or channels you can't get. I can't find how to remove them. Also I noticed the absence of a sort channels alpahbetically option on the cools*t pro. I hope this helps. |

New member Username: Rick031Post Number: 1 Registered: Sep-05 | Hello new here. I would like to know If I get a cool sat 4000 will my dish work with it. I have a single LNB. I used the dish for BEV then Dish network./////Another question, what will cool sat pick up. Will it pick up bev, dish channels . If not is there a site that shows the channel line up. Does it really pick up 4000 channels and it it totaly free?////Thanks |

New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 6 Registered: Jun-05 | Thanks Anony Mouse, I am now getting just the 2 sats I actually get. However there are several tps that fortec and pansat pickup that cools*t doesn't. It does pickup a ton of locals from elswhere in the country but my locals are on tps it doesn't pickup as is sci-fi and Fox Propaganda channel. I am wondering if that's just a glitch in the 133 bin that will be ironed out in the future. One other disappointing isue is that using an RCA 3x4 multiswitch to connect 110w,119w, and antennae to 3 stbs, i cannot tune in channels on the cools*t unless at least one of the others is viewing same channel. that seems kind of wimpy and makes having 3 seem pointless. I am going to start another thread regarding multiple receiver hookups. |

New member Username: PzedPost Number: 1 Registered: Sep-05 | Sorry but I 'm new here. I'm just desperate because I only hv until 9/21 to watch my remaining channel in n1. I just want to hv my Food Tv USA n ppv. I'm planning to buy fta receiver. I believe fta receivers are cardless( am i right) next is it user friendly i'm not into electronics which fta receiever is the best hope someone can help me... |
|
New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 7 Registered: Jun-05 | Pzed, what are you watching on now? Yes FTA's are cardless, just download the appropriate software tools and latest files. Which is the best? depends on who you ask. of my 4 I like the fortec ultra best. The pantec mx was the cheapest and fine until I fried it with the wrong download. The Pansat 2500 is a fine box also but I prefer to program mine to use the fortec files. I just like fortec interface better. I also have a shiny new cools*t 4000 pro but I haven't decided if I like it or not yet. |

Anonymous | ok now i'v made up my mind i am definitely going to order cool sat 4000. Do i need to buy a cable or does it come with it? which files shall i download? Where do I get authentic files, I mean one that will not fry my receiver? I think I still have 5-8 channels more until 9/21( CBS, HBO,NBC...). Can I watch Food network USA not Food network Canada coz obviously I'm living in Canada? Thanks Dave for the info sure appreciate it. Thanks all..... |

New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 8 Registered: Jun-05 | Hey there Canuck Anony Mouse, Make sure whoever you buy from supplies the cable as they come with it. It's just a straight through cable tht can be got anywhere though. I am getting MOST of the channels my other boxes get and a good many they don't! I'm not sure why but some tps just aren't getting picked up by my cools*t pro. If you are only using one reciever at a time it's a good box. The files are available in alot of places check previous posts for links. I have had no luck using others channel lists. I have had more success with blind scan and or manual scan. When you get your box I would hook it up and see what you get first, then if you don't get any tv, use stb tools to load the 133 bin file only. I don't recommend messing with ndfe or softcam at this time. They just screwed me up. I am not the best guru here on the cools*t I am just passing on my experience with it. Best of luck. |

RanJha Unregistered guest | I have a question. What does DUAL-LNBF mean? Does that mean you can connect two receivers or does that mean you can tune to two satellites? So when something says 3-dual-lnbf's .. Does that mean it will let 2 receivers connect to 3 satellites individually? -OR- When something says dual lnbf, does it mean it'll let one receiver tune to two satellites or two receivers connect to one satellite? Please explain. Thanks for you help. |

New member Username: ScooterguyMesquite, Texas Dallas Post Number: 9 Registered: Jun-05 | Okay, I officially feel defeated.... I have two brand new CoolS*t 4000 Pros that have done nothing other than take up counter space. I've tried to get them to pick up somehing other than local channels, but that's all I get. Every other channel comes up "scrambled". E-v-e-r-y channel... Can a-n-y-o-n-e tell me exactly the stb file, and ndf file I need for these boxes? Otherwise, I think I'm fixing to deep-six them in the can and just go back to my trusty rabbit ears. |

New member Username: SteadyshotPittsburgh, PA Post Number: 10 Registered: Jun-05 | Don't pitch them yet ScooterGuy! d*shn*t launched some new countermeasure today. I am getting locals form the other side of the country, CNN and one or two others at the moment. If you are getting anything then you probably programmed it ok it is just a coincidence that you got yours at the same time they ecm'd the first n2 hack. Be patient another bin will undoubtedly show up soon. I've heard from 2 coders already that they are working on it as we speak. All my stb's are similarly affected. |

Anonymous | Hi Every one, Does any one know the updating files for cool sat 4000 PRO can be used also for cooltec 4000 PRO? Thanks |
|
yesmanthankyousam Unregistered guest | hey i suggest you all check out orasat i got it and love it, it is better then coolshit 4000 pro. i love it a lot i got it from great unit very easy to use good picture/sound. |

Anonymous | Hi yesmanthankyousam; Thanks for the advise. I am new in FTA receivers so that's why I go with what i hear more about it. I hear a lot about cool sat and it seems that the code updates are everywhere but I don't see much about updating file for orasat. Beside orasat price is higher. cooltec is around 170 Canadian(150 U$) but orasat is 250U$. What do I get more from orasat? A technical question: How often do I need to change and search for the updates on line? and what is this nagravision 2 and 1? Are the updating codes(or files) always available? Can I trust that they will be available for at least a few years for the model that I buy? That's why I want to buy something which is more known and may have more support. or once a while I should change the receiver? Thanks |

There are NO guarantees anywhere with ANY make/model...few years,I don't think so!...be happy if U got 1 year from anything...this is a hobby,not a guaranteed free TV business..U want a guarantee,then share a paid subscription,but its not free,just inexpensive...Pansat and Fortec are the most popular FTA receivers and Ebay is the least expensive site.... |

rightonrightleft Unregistered guest | yea i think yesmanthankyousam is right. The Orasat 5.0 is a great unit i have FOOLSAT and it has had a problem here and there nothing major but the Orasat 5.0 i have has MUCH better picture and sound. it is GREAT for newbies it is easy to use and you do not need any know how. |

Bronze Member Username: ScooterguyMesquite, Texas Dallas Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-05 | I do not know about anyone else, but my CoolS*T system has not worked right since I've had it. I have never been able to get the 119 signal AT ALL!! I've been through hundreds of dollars worth of switches and LNB and still nothing. I think the CoolS*t is more Hype than putout. I've got a pile of CoolS*t junk in the boxes if any fool is interested in it.... |

Anonymous | It seems choosing a receiver is not easy. So far I thought cool sat is the best. Now I am hearing that's not so good! Why does it work for some people and it doesn't for others? Is that because they use right or wrong updating codes? Or that's because their version is different? I want to buy one! Please tell me what I should check for choosing one? Things like Nagra2! Are there different receivers for different sattelites? Are there receivers that receive all or most of the sattelites? I know these are many questions but please help me find as mush as possible about receivers to buy a good one with good support or available codes. Thanks a million |
