I've been trying to download latest BIN (87BL_060609_272_api_2) for my Pansat 2700a. I've unzipped the file, connected the receiver to the computer useing the 9pin cable. When I click download on the GTRom Loader v3.35 the error message comws up is "flash update fail."

Try using uploader GTRom v3.38
and Check if your using the right cable.(you should be using a stright not a NULL cable)

Thanks, the cable I am using is from radioshack that had the same number as the manuel (something like SC232..). The uploader is v3.35. i'll try your version.

There is any pansat 2700 using straight instance null cable an its working? If you buy a SC232 you have Straight Cable not Null Cable The model 2700 use null cable.

If you still have problem failed your receiver, change the cable, if you have a null cable and you have pansat 2700 clon, your receiver maybe need a straight cable. The original pansat 2700 use ever null but in many instance not all the clone 2700 use the same cable. If you still receive the same message and you have a clon, change null for straight.

After a few short trips to the computer stores which by the way was like the blind leading the blind man oh man some of those guys working there had no clue to the questions I had for them but turns out an old mom and pop competer cable store had the answers I needed ...indeed wrong cable ....
they look so alike yet so diffrent...
Im back up!!!!!!!!!!
Thanx to Eva and Mr Sauvesoris for the help...

The "straight cable and the "null Modem" look identical!...and sometimes the dealer will send the wrong cable with your receiver...and each receiver is different, some use the straight, others use the null modem

FLASH FAILED = WRONG CABLE OR SERIAL PORT (do not use USB ports)
