Coolsat 5000 Questions PART 2

What file did you load?

 

is everyone still on 168, and if so is BEV still working on that one?

 

yes for both questions

 

oh... that is weird, mine was working on 168, and now it is scramble channel

 

N/M it is all back

 

leave the autoroll on couple minutes and you should be ok

 

Some people seem to be having a problem with autoroll. Might want to try a reset and see if it fixes that problem.

 

Hi guys ,I have a CS5000 and everything is working fine except every now and then it turns off while watching Tv and I would have to physically squeeze and hold the box for about 30 sec.then its back to normal. Also recently I've been hearing a funny noise like a whistling sound coming from my CS5000, seems like when I tune to Bev. Maybe someone might have experience something like this or my CS is on the way out. please help, just would like to know whats going on.

 

I don't know if anybodly can help me. I asked before but the new Bin came out and everybody was gone. Currently testing CS5000 & CS6100 on both 91 & 110. My question is, I picked up a PanTec Ultra. Its old, and I can't find any information on it. Is it too old and has no support?

 

You have to turn rear power off and back on.
Autoroll is causing freezing.

I would clear the NVRAM, do a factory reset and then load the latest bin, scan all sats puts in settings and evaluate from there

 

Thank you Blnkstare I will definitely try your suggestion.

 

Your welcome and Good luck

 

Nice to have bin working for so long. thx. anyway i asked this a bit ago but was confused by response. i am wondering how to get the actual correct real time channel info on my guide. i have cs5k with bev. the music channels all have the right info so it must be possible for all channels, just don't know how to do it. i have been using the interactive guide on bell's website which isn't bad but kind of a pain. please treat me like a 3 year old when explaing. i am pretty new to this.
thx in advance to anyone that can help. go habs.

 

as well, i have no idea what the epg carrier channel is? please explain, thx again.

 

In your menu, the settings have BEV Renumbered ON.
This adds 1000 to the channel #. This is done for those using both BEV and DN so the channel #'s don't overlap.
Find this in your menu and set BEV renumbering OFF and you will have the correct channels.

 

Also go into Menu> System settings> Time Settings

Make sure your "local Offset" is set correctly to get proper time zone in your EPG

 

EPG carrier is an Electronic Program Guide carrier channel. it is not a dedicated channel like lets say a channel guide for comcast or cablevision (cable guides) but it allows the signal to update your EPG. In your case BEV is 212 (1212 with renum ON)
