had to recever and when hooked up the other this problem came along both same boxes. how to change antenna setting when i go on channel 61.5 its says auto rolling on 119.0w
Ok make sure in settings you have the correct settings entered for the ditec switch representing were the coax exit's the switch to the antenna for each LNB.
i also have two boxes both platinum, on the other box i have to hit fav to swith from one dish to the other, and also on that box i can't get it to get out autorolling.
get the channel list off of it useing the loader ((do you know how))and then factory reset it, put newest bin in, put channel list BACK in see what that does..
Its a little tricky to get a file from the receiver but can be done...
Must be able to have the receiver connected to a TV and the Computer Same time...
after conecting the receiver to the computer and tv turn on the receiver....hit menu, system information, receiver upgrade, move down to CHANNEL hit your ok buttion....a process bar will apear.....then on your computer open the loader and hit the STB--PC buttion the transfer will start......after both are done you can do the factory reset on the receiver then proceed with installing the newest bin . Then simply put the channel list back in the same way you do a bin file......here is a copy and paist of instructions for that...
