CNX Mini "How To" How to Load a File on the CNX Mini


Since the Mini doesn’t come with a USB Stick you have to use your own or you can go out and buy a very small Storage device. Very cheap.
-Download the Factory bin as well as the lastest bin file posted in the File Section.
-Unzip the files and extract them onto the USB device.
-Flip down the front panel and place the USB device in the front port
-Go to Menu>Utility>USB. After the unit recognizes the USB the files will be displayed
-Go down to the Mini Factory 6.01 and press OK. PopUp box will display 2 loading options. Select Bootloader Upgrade and press OK. After the USB Reads and Writes the unit will reboot. You can now load the latest EMU file and select that file in the USB Menu again and load the file as a SW Upgrade. Unit will reboot and you are now ready to setup your unit.



Scanning Your Sats

Go to Menu
Installation
Channel Search or Disqec Switch
Choose your sats that you are pointed to.
Choose any Disqec Ports
Change lnb frequency to match your setup (I am using Dishpro)
Select any Multi Switches if applicable
Select the Search button.
After the scanning process the Mini will save your newly scanned channels


EPG Loading
Enter the Guide by pressing EPG. You will have the Option of loading ***(Green Button) or DN(Red Button). All you have to do is press any of those 2 buttons according to what you have and the unit will go right to the EEPG channel for EPG Loading. *** will load in the matter or 20 secs for a Full 2 Days and DN will load 7 Days in the matter of 2 minutes.


Sat Packages

You can choose between All, ***, and Dish Packages. Selecting “All” will renumber *** or DN to the 10000 prefix depending on which provider you have renumbered in the Control Panel(Default is *** Renumbered). If you have both *** and DN running selecting each individual Package for viewing will be much better since there will not be a 10000 prefix there for either provider.



How To Adjust Picture Settings

Press the “Sort” Button at the bottom left of the RCU. A popup box will appear with adjustable settings ( Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, Hue and Sharpness).


Editing Keys Manually

You can manually edit your keys for your providers. Press Menu>Accessory>Key Works. You now have the option of Edit Keys, Reset Data, and ability of Turning Autoroll On or Off.
Press OK on Key edit. You can select your provider and edit keys in this Menu.



Previous Channel

You can go back to the Previous Channel by pressing the “Picture”/<-PR button directly on top of the Red STB/Divx.


Theme Search

By pressing “0” on the Remote the theme search engine appears. Theme packs are categorized into Movies, Sports, Adult etc. Using the Right and Left arrows on the side of the “OK” button you can navigate through the Themes. Very well laid out Themesearch Engine. Extremely nice.


Program Search

While in the EPG, press the "Sort" button at the bottom left hand side of the remote. You can search for programs, actors/actresses etc. Please remember the words are Case sensitve and the first word must be in Uppercase followed by lowercase. You can toggle between Uppercase and Lowercase by pressing the "Red" botton


Local Channel Remap

Press Menu>Control Panel. Scroll down to Local Area. Select USA, Your State and then your City. This is True Local Remap.


Save Database

You have the option of saving your scanned channels as well as your Settings. By going into the USB Menu and while having your USB storage device plugged in you can save your DataBase by pressing the “Green” Button on the remote. After a few secs it will save it to the USB. “STB_Data_SDB. If you ever have to do a Factory Default all you have to do is load your DB again and it will set your LNB settings, channels etc. It won’t save your picture settings or time. Those still have to be adjusted again. Also, if you have a Trio or Duo you can load that Database to the Mini and vice versa.

So that is a little “How To For The CNX Mini”. Have FUN!!!
