Thumbs up ultra new feature,,when you get 4 ----you dont have to connect to pc

How to load any USB file automatically when
"booting up" your Ultra when it has the 4 ----
------------------------------------------
just take the new file like PFTAUSW_080908U.PGM just change the date,, take off the date and put it like this PFTAUSWR.PGM ,,then put it on your usb stick ,turn off your receiver from back switch,,then put your usb stick in receiver turn switch back on,,it will do the rest ,it will put PFTAUSW_080908U.PGM on your receiver automatically ,,when your ultra gets locked up this will work great,,you dont have to use loader any more..check it out below...

A great new feature with the Ultra (since the
080908U file), is the ability to be able to
load up a "boot" file from a USB stick.
(A "boot" file simply means any file that you
want the Ultra to load up when you turn it on
from the back switch when there is a USB stick
inserted).
This should (hopefully) enable anybody to
circumvent the hassles of having to connect
their receiver to their computer with a cable
and use a "Loader program" in order to simply
load a file into their "frozen" (or otherwise
"unresponsive") box.
Now it is simple...
1: Insert your USB stick into your computer and
"open up" the files folder so that you can look
at your various Ultra files on your USB stick.
2: "Right click" on the file that you would like
to be loaded onto your Ultra (it can be either a
factory file or any other ultra "fix" file), and
select Rename from the window that pops up.
3: Rename that file to PFTAUSWR.PGM and make sure
that it saves it properly. (You can do this by
closing your USB window and then opening it back
up to ensure that the new PFTAUSWR.PGM file name
is still there).
4: And, as always, before you remove any USB stick
from your computer, click on the little Icon on
your taskbar (at the lower right of your screen),
and select "Safely Remove Hardware" before you
remove your USB stick.
5: Insert your USB stick into your Ultra (which is
turned off by the back switch).
6: Turn on your Ultra from the back and it will now
automatically look for, and load, any file named
PFTAUSWR.PGM.
(The front display on the receiver will show "uSb",
then "InSt", then "End").
When your menu comes back you can confirm which file
has now been loaded into the Ultra by using your
remote to go to Menu>System Information>Receiver
Information and check to see what file name is listed
beside the Main S/W entry.
It should show the original file name you had changed
to PFTAUSWR.PGM on your USB stick!

hope this helps ddd

thanx DDD, this should be way easier if I ever getr locked up again.

Happened to me a while back before I even KNEW about this site, and I had a hell of a time, plus I didnt even know how I scre----wed it up!
Since becoming a member here, I now know how to cause it and 2 ways to fix, the latest being the simplest.
N2 and its members kick butt

I totally agree.this should be a sticky.Even though there was no problem with my ultra,I decided to give this a try to see if it actually worked.I renamed the file and just follow instructions and bam,that s--t worked. So now if I have problems down the road with my ultra,I know that I dont have to go through hassle of hooking up my ultra to the computer.Thanks ddd.
