DO NOT run the Downloader from the zip file. Unzip the files to a folder, then proceed with the instructions below....

PLEASE.......Read the instructions first. Then Download the "UT Pansat 2700A only.zip" file at the bottom which contain both applications, or download the individule application depending on your needs.

Here we Go :

1). Turn your 2700 "OFF" via rear switch.
2). Connect the RS232C null modem cable to the receiver and Com1 port of your computer. (Use Com2 if not Com1 is not available).
3). Plug in the receiver, Turn your 2700 "ON" via the rear switch, and see that the "On" is indicated on the LED on the receiver.
4). Run the Downloader (GTRom Loader v3[1].35 [pansat2700A].exe) from the new created folder.
5. Click the App File only button, browser and select the "latest update" file,example X-87BL_050901_114_api then click the Open button.
6. Double check and make sure the cable is securely connected.
7. Click the Download button, wait until the "Download Completed!!" is displayed. Watch the LED on the receiver, it should reboot itself, wait until the "On" display.
8). Wait for unit to finish flash, DO NOT INTERUPT!
9). When receiver reboots and displays "On" You are done with the software update.

NOTE; The channel list provided is working5 by Wingnutt101 for LEGACY lnbs ONLY !!!
10). To load a channel list on your 2700, start & run the application Ch Editor187 (Pansat 2700A)
11). When Pansat Channel Editor 2700a appears, click file, open, select the channel list working5-legacy-2700
12). At the top of the screen click where it says "Tools" and goto "Connect to receiver' Then click "Download"
13). Wait till finished and unit will reboot to channel 0001. Your Pansat 2700 is now flashed and a Legacy Dishnet channel list has been loaded.
14). Wait for unit to finish flash, DO NOT INTERUPT!
15). Turn your 2700 "OFF" via rear switch.
16). Unplug and disconnect receiver from PC


Connecting the receiver to the TV.
17). Connect all the RCA cable from the TV to the receiver, connect the R6 Cable from the dish to the IF input of the receiver. Plug in the power cord from the receiver to an AC outlet.
18). You should see the Language Menu on the TV screen, select English.

Satellite Setup.
Note : I removed the SW21 then I connected my Dish 500 Duel legacy LNB 119 cable to the LNB1 of the DISEqC, then I connected my LNB 110 cable to the LNB2 of the DISEqC switch. The FTAs are not compatible with SW21s.
19). Goto the Installation Option, enter "0000" for p*********word
20). Goto the Antenna setup Option,
21). Select satellite you want (birds Echo8.6/Ku at 110W and Echo7/Ku at 119W are the Dishnet birds), press the OK button. DO NOT select more then one satellite if you only have one satellite.
22). LNB Type: select "Standard"
23). LNB Local-Freq: enter "11250"
24). 22kHz: OFF
25). See above note: DiSeqC: 0, if you have two lnbs on the dish or two dish then change it to the correct lnb #1, #2, so on...
26). Skew: 45
27). TP: leave it as is
28). Check the Level= highest as you can, and Quality= highest as you can (adjust the dish slightly to improve the signal strength)
29). If you get no quality level on these transponders, try others before giving up. Not all transponders are transmitting all the time. MAKE SURE THE CABLE IS PLUGGED INTO THE "IF INPUT" PORT ON THE BACK OF THE RECEIVER! Plug the other end directly into the LNB on your Dish.
30). Readjust your dish if you still not getting any quality signal
31). Press the Exit button, press OK to save setting

Note: this step is not required if you used the working5-legacy-2700 in steps 10 through 16
Scanning for Channels(10 minutes)
32). Go back to the Installation Menu
33). Go to Satellite Scan, press OK, select the satellite to scan using the left or right vol button(it should turn RED). Press OK to start the scanning.

WATCH TV!
NOTE: use the file released today.
unzipping the file is very very important.
thats where alots of people make mistake.
Also make sure you are using right cable.
2500 uses straight cable. 2700 uses null cable.
