WARNING!!!!!!!!!!

Do not interrupt the download,doing so may result in serious damage to your receiver!!!!! Once complete, the box will reboot. Wait an additional 15 seconds after rebooting has finished!!!!!

To load a channel list on to your receiver via USB , just load a channel list compatible with your unit onto the CH data directory and then do the same procedure, except this time you will navigate to the CH data directory instead of the CODE one.

It is very important that you turn your receiver OFF before removing the thumbdrive, otherwise you might experience data corruption, and when removing it from your PC always follow the procedure needed to stop access to it by your operating system.
