HOW TO FLASH.
You can flash (load) your receiver with a bin on top of the bin (file) you already have. It will replace it.
Use a Null CABLE RS232 on your receiver from the computer. Or use a Null adaptor from Radio Shack number 26-264B to make a straight through cable a Null cable. Take the cable off going to the LNB to be safe. If you don't have a 9 pin plug on your computer you may need to use a USB to Serial cable 26-183 at Radio Shack with a Null adaptor. If you need a 9 pin mail to mail gender adapter it is item #: 26-231. You will need to install a drive in your computer for the USB cable.
Un-zip all the files and hook up the cable from your computer to the STB, have the STB off with the switch in the back. Start the loader and click on the FILE folder. Find the bin file you un-zipped that now ends in BIN. Click on it and it will automatically go in the loader. Select DOWNLOAD S/W then select a COM PORT.
NOT on the remote but in front of the receiver hold in the power button as you turn the switch ON in the back. The word BOOT will stay on the STB front panel. Now you can click START on your loader and the % should move up. Don't do anything as the progress bar is going across. Make sure the Computer & STB are done before you go to the next step. They may not get done at the same time. The receiver needs up to one minute to process the data after the computer is done, (DON'T RUSH THIS). The receiver will count down twice then show "-End". When done turn receiver OFF & ON from the back. You may need to do a FACTORY DEFAULT instructions below.
2 legacy lnb hookup.
PLUGGING IN CABLE.
BE SURE THE REAR SWITCH IS OFF DURING HOOKUP OR YOU WILL BURN OUT YOUR DISEQC SWITCH.(edit-arbor)
Make sure you plug in the cable from the dish to the receiver at the LNB IN. The cables coming from the dish to the switch should be put on the switch at the same number as you have set in your receiver. "Example", 119 cable goes on number 1 on the diseqc switch and the receiver has #1 for 119 in the program. You can only get one Satellite for each one LNB you have. Two LNB's two Satellites, and so on.
You should set your settings. Below is what you may be able to use.
