when i first got one of these boxes and opened the parcel the box when first powered up had the menu on screen and it said no channels, so i had to go through the menus to find the sattellite installation menu, in there i added astra to the list of sats then had to go to channel search to do a scan, this dragged all the astra channels in then i had to stick a channel list and my gift line on the box as well as configure the network stuff... ive tried to include everything i have had to do below... hopefully its pretty close to how it really is!!
you will need a channel list i suggest ajs..... google it if u cant see the link in the stickies
how do I put this list on to my box?
Firstly, before any upgrade you should always backup!
How do I backup?
Make sure your USB is plugged in then navigate to;
> Menu > Tools > Dump by USB
> Change Dump Mode to "Misc File"
> Click on "Select and Dump"
> Select "TP_PROG.dbs" so it has a tick next to it then press yellow to "Dump onto USB", this will backup your channel list.
> To backup your Server/Gift whatever you want to call it just select the "CCcam.cfg" or newcamd.list file instead of "TP_PROG.dbs".
to back up the entire image choose image in the menu then dump to usb
> The required backup should now be on your usb stick, make sure to move it to your pc or be careful not to delete it.
Will updating my channel list effect my server settings etc?
No, your channel list is the only thing that's affected but it's always wise to backup just in case as problems can happen. This is for channel lists only, firmware updates erase everything.
Why are my favourites not named correctly?
Favourites only retain their name if you upgrade a whole image, or you can delete all the favorite names before updating the channel list then it should keep the names as they should be after the upgrade.
How do I edit the order of the favourites?
The only simple way would be to use SetEditHD100, the program isn't free but It'll let you make 25 changes before it stops working.
Some HD channels won't tune in or have low signal.
You might need to do a transponder/full scan to try & find a duplicate channel with a stronger signal, if that doesn't work I'd change the firmware & if you're still having issues you might need to slightly realign your dish (not recommended if you don't know what you're doing).
to add a cline or nline:
Turn on F5, let it boot up and put USB in the back
Using remote control, press Menu ---> Network Local Settings
type 6666 on remote and a hidden menu called camds should show up in the network menu, do not go into the network menu completeley just have it showing on screen before typing 6666
Select Camds Setup -->ok ---> mgcam Client Setup --> ok
Select Update Files by USB
Select newcamd.list (which is your Nline that is installed on the root of your USB)
Then you have options to Add or Read or Cancel
add this then exit and reboot.
the line is added and activated by doing it this way.
for cccam or clines change the above to cccam client etc etc
to check network settings. go back into network menu click on network settings, you want ethernet to be active (green) make it active if it isnt, if it wasnt the box will reboot, your not done yet! when rebooted go back into network menu and choose network set up again, now choose under ethernet settings/menu, go into here and turn dhcp to on, save and exit.
reboot again. your box should now connect to the net and decrypt the channels for you.
