    YOU NEED TO UNZIP THE FILE THAT IS IN THE ZIP FOLDER.
    THEN COPY THE .ABS FILE TO YOUR USB.
    YOU WILL THEN BE ABLE TO SEE THE FILE WHEN YOU GOTO FIRMWARE UPDATE.

      when you have downloaded the firmware click to open it, and rename the flash , flash.tbn, put this onto your memory pen then into the back of the box , switch the box off/on with the switch at the back , the box will then reboot ,on the led on the front of the box it should say now booting , open flash , extracting flash then count up from 0 to 100 then reboot , you may have to do a deep scan using the symbol rate for your area 6887 or 6952.
