Captain7000 Premium review - Free To Air TV Forum, FTA Keys and Downloads, Dish Network, Nagravision 3

#1 (**permalink**) 4th June 2007, 09:36 PM

I loaded the captain 7000 Receiver up as follows

1. Connect the serial cable (null modem cable) between My PC(COM1) and the fta receiver.

2. Double click the loader
Then click file then down

3. Click the "Select File" button and select the software file to be downloaded.

4. Plugged in the receiver

- If the progressive bar in the download window appears and seems to work,
It means that Download is in progress. Then, displays "dnLd" and "Upgd".

- Upon completion, the "S/W successfully upgraded. This program will be closed."
messages will appear. Then, the program will be closed.

Once i loaded the new file ..and set language then time .. the captain 7000 Premium fta receiver did the rest ..i just sat BACK and it found all ports on diseqc
switch and scanned all sat's on its own .DN 110/119 - BEV 91

i Really like the One-Button Receiver Setup ,,

picture is good
EPG works good
SCANNED channels good
Price for the unit is good

To manually enter keys if needed all you have to do is click EXIT button 2 times and you will be there ...

i think the loader - Captain Loader v1.24 needs some work ...

but all in all the Captain 7000 Premium fta receiver is a vary nice unit for sure ..
