Receiver drs 4500 tricolor siberia. Owners of receiving equipment models DRS–4500, DRE–4500, DRE–5500, CI7101s, as well as CAM-Siberia-DRE modules, perform a manual search

In our example, I'm looking at the General Satellite DRS 4500 model receiver, but this also applies to the DRE 5500 and DRE 7300 receivers.

Receiver software updates usually occur automatically from satellite.

Sometimes, if the receiver software update is unsuccessful, the Tricolor TV does not turn on or writes that there is no signal. The reason for this may be that the receiver's power is turned off during the satellite update process.

To flash the receiver's firmware at home, you will need a null modem cable, a computer or laptop with a com output, and the firmware itself. The firmware and firmware program can be downloaded from the official website of the receiver manufacturer at http://general-satellite.ru/support/soft/.

After this, connect the receiver, with the receiver's power turned off, using a cable to the computer. We launch the flasher, press the upload button and plug the receiver into a power outlet. The firmware update process is in progress.

After this, you need to go through the process of setting up the receiver.

Resetting the Tricolor 4500 receiver to factory settings and further configuring it.

1. Press the menu button on the tricolor remote control.

We get to the Main menu of the DRS 4500 or DRE 4500 receiver.

Go to Settings and click OK.

2. The receiver will ask us for a PIN code: Enter the PIN.

The default PIN code is four zeros.

We dial 0000 and should get into the settings menu.

If this does not happen, then the PIN code has been changed and you need to remember it.

3. In the Settings menu, go to the very bottom item: Factory Settings.

4. Read the warning on the TV screen.

Press the red button on the remote control.

Select YES and click OK.

After pressing, a factory reset occurs.

5. After the reset, we are taken to the language selection menu.

Click the OK button twice without touching any settings.

6. We get to the automatic search page.

Here we look at the lower right corner.

Two scales must be greater than 50%.

If this is not the case, we solve the problem with the dish or connection.

If more than 50%, click OK with the Next button highlighted.

7. We wait for the channel search to complete.

After searching, a message will appear that it found 53 channels, you may have 50.

8. We get to the Time settings menu.

Select your time zone and set the date and time.

Select OK and click OK.

Below, the video instructions show and explain how to reset the receiver to factory settings, and then how to configure and search for channels.
