    Are you scanning from the main feed? (no splitters etc)
    Make sure the coaxial cable is in cable input at the back of the b0x.

    Try this:

    1. Go to the Start Menu
    2. Right click on "My Computer"
    3. Select "Properties"
    4. Click on the "Hardware" tab
    5. Click on "Device Manager"
    6. Click the + sign next to "Ports (COM & LPT)"
    7. One of the listed ports should indicate which port your USB adapter is connected to (e.g. COM1, COM2, COM3, etc.)
    8. Go back to your map software program that you use to transfer data and make sure it is looking at the correct port.
    9. You should be able to transfer data once the correct port is selected

    If you need drivers go here

    http://www.gilsson.com/usb_drivers_download.htm

    Follow my advice to step 7. Locate your USB Adapter (port *)

    Right click on that port and select properties. Then select port settings, then select advanced. At the bottom of that tab will be a drop down box with the port selected (port * in your case). Use the drop down to select another port (eg 1, 2 or 3). If the port you want to use is already allocated to something else, you can use the same procedure to reassign that port after you have finished.
    Save the selections in the usual way. The USB converter will be permanently assigned to the port you selected.

    yes once the correct port is used, its trial and error, keep trying different ports until one works for you!!

    The firmware download box only gives me the option of com ports 1 to 4 i have tried them all and none of them will allow the download,do you think that my null lead could be faulty.

    Try This - Menu 1570 back into Cas System Menu and press Set Default Key, exit out and then let it update (if you have the latest fix on) and go back in and it should be there.

    Why are you referring to ariel then? The best thing to do is to have the subbed box in as well as the other box's - all three off a good quality splitter, (depending on signal level, you may need a signal booster to do this, but I doubt it) that way your supplier is reading that you have the subbed box in place via the talkback feature. But a lot of people don't bother, that is my advice though, will avoid any suspicions. ;)
