Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 5557 Registered: Jan-06 | Bin/File name Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With Pansat bins U need to know some basics, which U can tell usually by the Bin file name.. EXAMPLE ONLY....X-85BL_060927_279_db_api(N).zip X- 8500 = Pansat 1500 X- 75 = Pansat 2300 bin X- 85 = Pansat 2500 X- 87 = Pansat 2700 X- 88 = Pansat 2800 X- 05 = Pansat 3500 X- 95 = Pansat 5000 X- 60 = Pansat 6000 BL = Blacklist, a coder of Pansat bins 060927 is the date the bin was released/created by Blacklist...so 06 is the year = 2006, 09 = 9th month September, 27 is the day of the month = 27th day, 279 is the actually bin # which usually follows sequence from the previously released bin... so the above bin EXAMPLE means.. X-85BL_060927_279_db_api(N).zip....this bin was created/released by Blacklist for the Pansat 2500 on September 27, 2006...and it is bin number 279 which followed bin 278 and the next bin number whenever it is released should be 280.. Also remember that U must use the correct bin for your particular model, they are NOT interchangeable... Also remember these bins are for Genuine Pansat receivers ONLY, NOT clones(imitations)!..they will damage your clone.. For Pansat CLONES, the bin file names are ALMOST exactly the same but usually will have the letter "T" (for Tested ) after the bin number..such as bin number 279T...if U have a clone pay close attention to this and make sure U use a CLONE safe bin...usually clone bins will also say it in the post that its a Pansat bin made and modified for clones....so READ the description and file name VERY carefully before U attempt to upload it into your receivers..NOT all "T" bins are SAFE for clones either, make sure it says "Clone SAFE", some are just modified for Tivo use and NOT Clone use.. Also Pansat 2700 Clone bins do NOT end with "T", they usually are X-87BL.. date (061108)... bin # (284v)...example X-87BL 061108_ 284v1 and STATE clearly they are pansat 2700 CLONE bin Pansat 2500 Clone bins will always end in "T" I have yet to see a Pansat 3500 Clone safe bin... Lastly again, read the ENTIRE file name, NOT only the bin number, because many times different models (1500-2500-2700 especially) will have the same bin number..and again , they are NOT interchangeable, and will do much damage to your receiver if U use the WRONG bin file! BTW...the Fortec Ultra is considered a Pansat 2500 CLONE and uses the same bins as them.. |

Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 5592 Registered: Jan-06 | BUMP...PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THE SUBJECT OF THIS THREAD... PRFRMNJ...thats why I post things, to help others and for others to share...when they do a copy/paste ONLY to try and establish their own credentials, then that bothers me...but I sure as hell can't speak or write spanish, so have at it anytime..we are always cool.. |
Silver Member Username: PrfrmnjPost Number: 804 Registered: Oct-05 | You know me. Not the one to take credit for what's not mine. Jay - one of the easiest ways is by looking at the remote. Original Pansats come with a Universal remote. A clone does not. Sorry, I just highjacked the thread! |

Bronze Member Username: AjtechPost Number: 16 Registered: Oct-06 | Hey now, I own 2 Pansat 2700a's and they both recieve satellite signals and display pretty pictures on the screen - they send audio signals to my stereo as well. Are you insinuating that I should change my recievers because they are not 'cool' anymore? What about the '04 Vette, the '05's & '06's have cooler headlamps, does that mean the '04 sucks now? Hold in a minute while I change my car, wife, house, kids and everything else for newer models.... |
