sounds like he's trying the 2500-2700 conversion...#5 stuck, and not waiting for 30 seconds..


Pansat 2500 - Pansat 2700 Converting Procedure

First, here's a list of things that you need:

- RS 232 female-female Straight Cable
- A Pansat 2500 remote control

Instructions/Procedure:

- Please turn OFF your receiver and disconnect it from the satellite & the TV cable
- Connect your receiver to your computer using RS 232 female-female Straight Cable
- Now open the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please select the "BIN" option on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now please select the correct "COM" port on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.
- Now, please click the "Select Bin" button on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please look for the "j27_205_1.bin" file and click on it
- Now, please turn ON your receiver and as soon as you see the first "dash light" on your receiver's front panel, click the "Write Bin" button on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please wait and let the bin download process complete
- When it's done, your receiver will REBOOT automatically and soon you'll see B 7 5 flashes back and forth on your receiver's front panel
- Now, please close the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0 window
- Please turn OFF your receiver
- Now re-open the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please select the "BIN" option on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now please select the correct "COM" port on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.
- Now, please click the "Select Bin" button on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please look for the "jvvh_215 file and click on it
- Now, please turn ON your receiver and as soon as you see the first "dash light" on your receiver's front panel, click the "Write Bin" button on the Blacklist STB Updater 1.4.0.0
- Now, please wait and let the bin download process complete
- When it's done, your receiver will REBOOT automatically and soon you'll see B 7 5 flashes back and forth on your receiver's front panel

- That flashing B 7 5 will stop and freeze on number 5 for 30 seconds

- After 30 seconds or so, your receiver will automatically boot (It'll turn ON automatically, after 30 seconds)
- Now, please turn your receiver OFF and disconnect it from your computer
- Finally, please connect the satellite and the TV cable to your receiver
- That's It, you're done! Now, you have a Pansat 2700 Clone
- Finally, download the latest bin to your receiver (Read my Bin Loading Intructions file for help)

Note: After you finish with the above steps, you have to re-scan your satellite(s). After you're done with that, you have to enter the latest keys (Dishnetwork or BellExpressVu). Here's what you need to do after you re-scan your satellite(s):

- Go to MENU
- Then, go to Parental Control
- Then, go to Second Pin and enter 0000
- Then, go to Set Default Key
- Then, go to Nagravision 2 to enter the latest Dishnetwork or BellExpressVu keys

Folks, I need help badly, I have a pansat 2700a, the thing worked for a few months then stopped. I attempted to download new bin files for dish network. Then all of a sudden the receiver refuses to booth, when it powers up, it cycles 6/ 7 and stays on 5, it says(5) THATS IT!, it does nothing else. Did I fry the receiver? if not, what have I done wrong?, how can I fix the problem? and can some one please instruct me how to download the BIN all over again and keys etc I've been frustrated for a week now. Thanks very mucy in advance thanks again folks!

RTAP, here is what I believe the root of my problem is, I believe I lack the basic understanding of the bin loading process and this is where I screwed up. Please give me the basic on where and how to load bin properly receiver is currently attached to computer thanks

step 1 connect rs 232 null modem cable to pc and stb
step 2 open loader v27.02
step 3 in the loader press bin and select x87bl 071009 b75 217 api.zip
step 4 press download and wait till complete is displayed.
remember you must unzip or extract all files from the zip folder.

good luck

Hi AV, You guys are definitly making me laugh today.
Hi joonka, I was going through same thing about a year ago with a original FLU. (Thanks AV) Now pansat 2700 clone.
I don't want to be rude in anyway, The best advise everyone will give you is Point, Click and Read. Visit other sites(Links posted previously) check out the info for your STB box. File section how to's are really good. LK instructions for bin are to a T. Please read LOL.
Sorry, couldn't help it.

Good Luck though, you will get there sooner than you think.

Respectfully,
Kimberly
