Don't open the program file. All you do is load the file as it is after you unzip it to your usb stick and use it that way. A. Loading your BIN using Null cable: ?

Click on PC>STB (Notice the progression bar in loader) ? Turn the power in the back ON ? Wait for Loader say Completed. Then on box LCD front panel screen say I.N.S.T>END>0000 or until clock count to 0.001 IT IS VERRY IMPORTANT. DO NOT TURN THE POWER OFF TO SOON ? Turn the power OFF in front and power OFF in back ? After downloading the “BIN”, unhook NULL cable from PC>STB ? Connect all the cables to your box/TV ? Turn the power ON in the front and back ? Press Menu key ? Select Installation and press OK ? Select Antenna Setup and press OK ? Select your Sat. ? Here if you have a DISEqC switch enter the port #, Motor or Legacy SW ? No LNB Type need to select (from new, you have only two selection Standard and Universal). STB will select your LNB Automatic ? Press Exit and select Yes for saving the settings ?

thank you so much man, i donot have the cable right now but i will buy one and learn how to do it by my self.
You can load them with a usb memory stick. Much easier that way, don't have to hook up a computer to the ultra.
This might help. Use only the extreme instructions. All the dish settings are there also. If this is a new STB/receiver you should get at least two files before you start. LOADER2.ZIP (viewsat utility section ) An up to date latest file, found in the Viewsat Files (fixs and updates) section here Use only Platinum PGM files on Platinum or Lite Extreme PGM files are for Extreme only 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 Nul CABLE RS232 on your receiver from the computer. Or use a Nul adaptor from Radio Shack number 26-264B to make a straight through cable a Nul 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. Un-zip all the files and hook up the cable from your computer to the STB, keep the STB off with the switch in the back. Start the loader-2 and click on OPEN FILES. Find the bin file you un-zipped that now ends in PGM. Click on it and it will automatically go on the first line of the loader. Click on the icon just below the word TOOL and check the COM PORT. Then turn STB on from the back and at first light click PC->STB on the loader. If the progress bar don't move after about a minute start over again. Sometimes the timing is critical. Even try turning STB on from the back first then click PC->STB. 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. When file transfer is completed, the Front Panel will display: "inst" for 15 seconds while the software is being installed "DONE" for 10 seconds while the ViewSat does housekeeping chores Next, the ViewSat automatically REBOOTs " on " will be displayed and when the reboot is complete, "0000" You may NOW turn "OFF" the ViewSat and connect it to your TV and satellite dish cable Some problems occur from users not waiting long enough after flashing. The unit now has an extra step involved. When finished it will say END, then 0000, then boot, then END, then back to last channel or 0000. You must wait till this process finishes before unplugging. Unplugging while it is finishing causes the unit to fail PLUGGING IN CABLE. Make sure you plug in the cable from the dish to the receiver at the LNB 13/18v INPUT. Not the ANT 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. Now you will need to set your settings. Below is what most have. MENU, INSTALLATION, then 0000 or 0937 or 2668 or 3570 then ANTENNA SETUP then side arrow to ECHOSTAR 7 119.0W check your Satellite setting. Then do the same to ECHOSTAR 8,10 110.0W EchoStar 7 - 119.
