Hi M8:

The info that you require is in this thread

https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthrea...iderbox-6000HD

[chopper1]

thanks guys but for some reason i cannot find accessories-USB

my menu from left to right is: installation-multimedia-channel-system setting-others

[Mickha]

Does the 6000HD have the hidden menu option, like other Spiderboxes? If so try pressing 1111, to open it.

[Aldo]

To get extended Menu options goto Menu / Others and press 1111, this will give you 3 extra options at the bottom of the list.
Go to ‘Network’, scroll down to IKS and press register OK, will then show Connection Status as Connected and expiry date.

[blackdevil]

Menu - System Settings - Software Update - S/W Backup - Select option 'User Database' - arrow down - arrow right - add a new file and press OK to this file to save your channel list .

In the thread link and the message 'Do not load an All Backup file to another 6000 as it will erase the mac code' does this mean a channel list from the other receiver or another settings file, it appears a very important tip and just a bit confused?

In the thread link and the message 'Do not load an All Backup file to another 6000 as it will swer to your query erase the mac code' does this mean a channel list from the other receiver or another settings file, it appears a very important tip and just a bit confused?

The answer to your query is in the link in post#5. please learn to read the forum:


Patch Loading. Please note : Only use Spiderbox 6000HD Patches and Channel lists, all other model Spiderbox files are NOT compatible.

[Coastman]

Hi Aldo. I did read post 5 even made a copy of it and understand about other spiderbox channel lists not compatible with the 6000 as different hardware/software but that was not what i was querying but obviously i have not explained it right.

[Mickha]

An All Backup file is just that, all the data, using someone else's channel list is not a problem, providing it's from the same model receiver.

Thanks Mickha for the info i understand now as all i meant to say was if i get a second 6000 i can transfer the channel list from the original 6000 without it effecting the mac code which i thought it would not but just wanted confirmation. Also a further query to post 5 is the first link posted still available as nothing happens for me when i try it?

[echelon]

I have just amended a corrupt link for you

and stickied the aldo + jbvideo tutorial

try them again

you should be able to use any 6000 channel list datafile on any 6000 , including any new ones

its the ALL BACKUP you cannot transfer between boxes as it contains the mac code

[chopper1]

thanks blackdevil, when i select system setting, i only see update & backup then image upgrade/image backup/OTA which one do i select?

i assume its image backup?

[blackdevil]

Yes,select image backup .
You do not use latest patch that's why it is a little diferrent .
After saving your channel list ,use latest patch :
