Give more details. You may have loaded the wrong BIN.

thats called night rider lights. If your FLU is still 2500a not converted to a pansat 2700. All you need to do is reset it back to factory setting and relaod the "BOOT" file first. Make sure it is set to "boot in your flu loader. Then load the new bin. You should get a better bin ask Nalin or LK what is the best file out now. You must make sure it is one that ends with a "T" chancyland bins are good. Good luck. Also use the BL loader for the new bin.

If you PM me I can email you the boot file .Ever since the new pansat 2700 came out not many sites carry the older files for 2500a. Is it still a FLU/pansat 2500a?

Try loading the old 294T clone-safe bin for the 2500 onto it. If that takes, you've recovered. You can then attempt the conversion one more time.

Liz, I think you might need to load the Factory bin BEFORE you load the 294t. I'm almost sure but confirmation from LK, Nalin or AV would be nice.

You should be able to get both from almost any FTA site.

Tamee, you have a lot of reading to do. Everybody will be willing to help but I don't think anybody would be willing to sit down and teach you all you need to know. Just read some of the threads here and you'll quickly catchup on the basics.

For someone to be able to point you in the right direction, they'll need to know (a) Exactly what kind of Fortec you have (there's more than one kind), (2) What your System Information shows and (3) Something about your installation - What kind of dishes you have and what they are aimed at.

You'll get plenty of help here so jump right in.

Tamee, your receiver needs to be converted to a 2700 hybrid of sorts to be useful.

Here's how you do it: https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/home-video/407190.html
