Help

[Bill Pihl]

I had my X2 Premium on today and all of a sudden it locked up so I unplugged it and plugged back in and now I have nothing,no display at all and just a dim light on the LAN port. Is there a reset I am missing, I didn't see one in the manual or is it DOA thanks for any help.

I would say a recovery file or the latest file with cable via rs232 port but I have never seen a loader for this receiver. Keep rebooting.

Viper I have tried all ports and Xmodem-1K and Xmodem-128 and I can not get it to communicate. I have checked my com ports and they are working.

I could not get the X2 to recover sorkhfam, maybe a componet burned out. You never know with any electronic equipment.

Unplug the box from the power, Open the loader , load the file *.stp, hit the Start to download and immediatly plug the box back
(Com 1, X-modem 1K)

I have had to use the recover tool before, it took me tiring about 6 times for it to finally take hold, I suggest trying at least 20 time before giving up.You have to have just the right timing for it to work.
