Guys, I am thankful to have renewed support from Norw. I dug up my cs5000 from the shallow grave in my backyard and put in the new bin181. Nothing doing.
Do I need to do a factory reset first? Or was that only for the 180 bin?
Also, since I last used cs5000 succesfuly I have moved and upgraded to HD service. Will this affect my old cs5000 from working properly? Thanks in advance. Go vote tommorow!!!!!!!!!!!

It never hurts to start with the factor file.

To start you have to do a factory reset.
If you have already reset with bin 180, then you do not need to reset with bin 181. But if you are starting with bin 181, then you need to reset first.

Thanks Nalin and Valinex. I did a reset but nothing. Is there an actual cs5000 factory file I need to install now? I cant find it on dsstester. Where is a good place to look? Also, no matter what, i cannot get any signal strength or quality over 5%! Since i moved to my house. I get HD package from DN. I reconnect the line to my cs5000 and get no signal quality over 5%. What the hell? Is it that they are using diffent type of line or because the line is spliced as it enters the house? That shouldntmake a difference should it? Maybe its just a matter of finding and installing the factry file? Thanks guys.

Nalin, hi, I cant get the cs5000 factory file anyhwere. I cant get it from that link you posted. Is there any other site or does anyone have it and can put the link here? My box seems to be in a coma since I did the factory reset. In the systems info it does say I have bin 181 installed though. thanks in advance.

Nice. Thanks alot Not Today and Nalin. I appreciate it! I hope it works. I guess I install that into my box then reinstall the 181 (hopefully before it stops working) and then reset all my setting right? Hey, I am just having fun with this stuff. Hope to become expert at it like you guys. Thanks.

Nalin and Not Today, thanks guys, my old cs5000 is running. Now to figure out how to get the international/desi channels. The DN guy put the international dish on my roof so I should get it but I dont know how to link that dish to my box. I'll read the manual! Something about LBN switches? Anyhow, Thanks!

When CS6000 was manufactured there was no ANIK 3.

Use AniK 1 slate or any other convenient unused slate.
If you have CB2008 or similar Digiwave special
Anik 3 LNB and 33" Dish

LNB type: Universal 2 or Standard.
LNB Freq.: 10750 or 10600
First TP 11715

If you have Dishpro 500+ or 1000+ and special LNB

LNB type: DSC-DP
LNB Freq.: High 10750
Low 9750
First TP 11715

Then do Blind scan or all scan.

Note that the Dishpro 500+ or 1000+ has a 30" Dish 5" wider than the Dishpro 500 and 1000 Dishes.
