View attachment 47951 try this mate..just load file and sent.......before you do this try this again.....................................Flashing The EX7000HD using USB

1. Download the required firmware
2. Copy the file to your usb pen or equivalent, ensure filename is (flash.tbn).
3. Insert it into the usb slot and switch power off then back on at the rear switch.
3. box will reboot, open the flash file extract it to its memory and install it automatically.
4. Once flashed its a peice select your desired settings, scan then enjoy.

sorry to jump on the band waggon, are these any good, thinking of getting one as i'm thinking that the more high Def channels that are starting to come out might be worth it and you can also record to an external HDD, (maybe a NAS drive?) then that would suit me to be able to get at the recordings with out too much effort.....

post no.2 says Copy the file to your usb pen or equivalent

you can use that with the rs cable if the USB fails........

Make sure that the file is renamed to flash.tbn on the USB storage device before plugging in. Also make sure that that you restart the power using the switch at the back of the unit.

biggest fault people do is forget to rename to flash.tbn
bet nearly everyone who got a 7000hd had the same prob
