The bin file you have should auto roll to the new keys. Try turning off the back power switch for 30 seconds and then back on and see if it rolls to the new keys. Make sure the auto roll feature is turned on in the receiver setup. If that doesn't work, here is a guide for manually entry of the keys. Its good to know how to enter the keys manually if the auto roll doesn't work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- How To Manually Load Keys For Coolsat STB's Here's how to manually Load Keys for the Coolsats: On your remote control, Press 8282, this will bring up the Key Edit menu. The #1 box at the top should say Nagravision. If box #1 does not say Nagravision, you may need to scroll to box #72 using the right or left arrow buttons on your remote. The CAS should read Nagravision. The Ident should read Dish Network (0001), below that, there should be 4 boxes on the left that have 10, 11, 20, 21 in them with numbers and letters to the right of those numbers. This is where the current key data is located and may need to be changed manually from time to time. Autoroll files normally make these steps unnecessary but the occasional unforseen circumstances make changing the data necessary but easy to do. UPDATED INSTRUCTIONS/INFO: Press the down arrow button to highlight whichever is the Current Active Key(s) which will be either 10 & 11 = Key 00 Data (aka:86) ( 16 numbers/letters ) or 20 & 21 = Key 01 Data (aka:96) ( 16 numbers/letters ) or both. From the Current Active Key Data Information (numbers and letters) you wrote down, Press the corresponding numbers and letters using your remote There are 2 different methods to input the numbers and letters: 1)To input the needed Numbers, press the corresponding number on your remote and it will automatically move to the next space for data input To input the needed Letters, press the Info button on your remote and it will change the letters with each push of the Info button. When you have the correct letter or number inputted, press the right aarow button and it will move to the next space for data input. 2) To input the needed Numbers and Letters, press the OK button on your remote and it will bring up a small letter and number menu. Using the up/down, right/left arrow buttons on your remote, highlight the needed number or letter and press OK. This will input the needed number or letter and automatically move to the next space for data input. Once you have all the Key Data (numbers and letters) inputted all the way across for the corresponding Key Number(s) (10/11 or 20/21), double check to make sure all the information is correct. Press the EXIT button and a box will appear on your screen that says; Settings Were Changed Do You Want To Save? Yes - No - Cancel Highlight the YES button and press OK That's it. In most cases, the screen should either have a picture on it right away or in some cases, it may be black ( with no message at all ) and take a few minutes for the active key to update to your receiver and then the picture will automatically pop on. Hope this helps. FOR BEV:: Ch 8282 is key edit page. Nagravision 2 is for Bev. Put new keys in line 10 & 11. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jerry
