Congratulations!
You are not lost. What are you wanting to do with the satellite list? It might help to describe your satellite antenna setup in detail. The receiver is not hard to setup, but of course you have to know how.

What image is in the receiver?
DreamboxEDit is one of many satellite editors, or you can telnet into the box and edit the satellite file using any .xml editor.
I can help you set the box up and get it running, but this will be very hard to do without knowing the antenna settings you are using.
Channel PIDS can be added by using telnet and manually adding them to the channel file which is named lamedb. I think you can also add PIDS using DreamboxEDit. Would help to know what PIDS are you wanting to add.

30" multi sat dish aimed at 97w ku with 2nd lnb pulling in 103w ku 4 way discq switch, port 1 97w port 2 103w
a lot of radio on 103w has to have the pid's added manually.
I seen how to set up the antenna settings but there just were not any sats that i use.
I connected with open Webif ealier I think it said 11-23 -17 experimental was the firmware.

OK.
Do you understand how to use telnet and transfer files using FileZilla or other ftp program?
Do you understand how to flash the receiver or load an image (Main firmware)?
What is the resolution for your television? 1080p?

NO
NO
My old ps3 plays 1080p fine but I just set the VU+ 4k to 720p for now.
Let me go to you tube see if I find any thing on the telenet and file zilla.
Thanks

You have given enough information to setup an image that will run. I will upload a file to the internet for you in probably 30-40 minutes. That should get you going.

(1) Download file in link.
(2) Put file on a good, usb stick or pen drive.
(3) Unzip or extract file once. This should give you a vuplus folder.
(4) Turn power off to Zero 4K using rocker switch on back of receiver.
(5) Insert usb stick with extracted file into the rear usb port. Power the receiver ON.
(6) The front Vu+ emblem or light will blink or flash slowly. Wait for the front light to blink or flash fast (usually 3-5 minutes).
(7) Power Off unit using rocker switch on back of the receiver and remove usb stick.
(8) Power ON using rocker switch and wait for receiver to boot. This should take no longer than 5 minutes.
After booting completes:
Press the green remote button once for the channel list, and twice to display the two satellites.
Use the radio or tv buttons on the remote to change between tv and radio channels.
The ip address in the receiver will need to be changed for your network.
Connect the receiver to the internet and set time zone for correct time display.
Note: The Zero 4K uses a force update. Remove the usb stick and delete the vuplus folder. You may save the zipped file as the receiver cannot "see" it.
