    they are just channel encripted signs, nothin to worry about.
    if u leave it on standby it will be ok.
    but if the keys change u will have to manually input them because u havnt got the new software on it.

    Make sure you have a genuine box before you put the v4.00 on it as if you have a clone it will kill it check the box first

    18 vents ==clone

    25 vents == genuine

    13 vents == first gen box ok let us all know

    first you need the v4.00 if you have a genuine box

    second you need gtrom loader to load the firmware

    third you need null modem cable

    and you do not need jkeys this is for dead boxes

    and the tutorial for flashing is there as well

    all available on the eko site download to your pc and read before you do anything ok

    Do as Fergus has said and download the Starview Guidefrom Eamos FTA Library at the bottom of both mine and Fergus's posts. This will explain all your queries.
