Hi chaps.. After several years with no problems, my Humax Foxsat-HDR will not automatically download channels.. I can do a Manual refresh which results in about 300+ channels but the same channels from all the different areas.. In the download menu the satellite is freesat 28.2E..I have a very strong signal and it seemingly recognises my Post Code..
Hi welcome to our forum.
What software does your box have installed ?
Is it left in standby overnight ?
Have you got a freesat channel on 818 ?
Hi Graham, Under Diag it says HPRSFCl 1.00.02 and Version U 7.51 see my last update was Nov 2008. I haven’t got ch 818, I turn it off at night..BG
Can you get channel 999 ?
Are you located in the UK ?
Your software is out of date – latest is 1.00.21 27 Jul 2012
I am in Eastbourne.East Sussex. BN20 9NB can’t get 999, everything starts with 5000..How do I get update software, keep trying auto.. but says none available..BG

You have to download the .zip file linked to in my post and update using a usb memory stick and extract the files in it. Instructions are in the zip archive. A bit concerned you haven’t got 999, it’s on the Freesat home transponder. Can you use manual tune and check signal strength and quality on 11427 (could say 11428) H and post what you find ?
Everything starts with 5000 because you are in non-freesat mode. I take it there’s no STB mode option to switch back to freesat mode
I have done the manual on 11428H still got all the channels starting with 5000 Strength 100% Quality 80% Transponder is at 28.2E

You misunderstand, I just wanted to check you can get the transponder. If you could not then you would need to fix this before updating the software. What happens if you try a freesat tune (Menu – setup – freesat tune) ?
In settings have you got a STB mode option that you can change from Non-Freesat to Freesat ?
Sorry..No downloads occur in Freesat tune and I can change from Non to Freesat but when I do change to Freesat mode I have no channels.
I have attached a jpeg of, what I think, is relevant BG
oops I will try again

Funny innit.. I have just tried to download,,made sure I was in freesat mode, nothing had happened, went back to settings and it had switched back to non freesat..did this three times on the trot so I will try and update the soft ware.. Thanks for your help Graham.. regards BG
