How do you program cw-600s premium receiver?

Answer 1

first you need the following:

- receiver

- computer with a serial port

- null modem/serial cable

- software

- latest .bin file you want to upload to the receiver

the bin file contains the info you need to put on the receiver when the dish goes down. you download the file to the receiver using the software.

the software can be found here: http://www.aaafta.com/forum/captiveworks-cw-600s-premium-files/2267-new-captiveworks-captiveworks-600s-premium-loader-v1-07-a.HTML

the binary files (also called BV fixes) can be found here: http://www.livefta.com/forums/captiveworks-files/

1) plug in receiver, hook up cable from receiver to computer by serial ports.

2) start software. click the little folder icon at the top and locate where ever you have unzipped your .bin file to. do not touch your com port setting in the program unless your com port has been changed manually (default, it should be COM 1).

3) turn power off on the receiver via the switch on the back. select "upload data", then start, then turn on power to receiver. receiver should get stuck in "boot".

4) select "download data". hit start. receiver should start to show odd values on the screen that change very fast (i think its HEX code) and the progress bar in the software should start to move.

5) when receiver says "- END" it is done. cycle power off and enjoy.
