Last update:
2/7/97 Current software revision ( Sept.-1996 ) is: PT# 16-5292-1G,
System Version: PAL 09-26-95 V122. Added NVRAM restore/save in Menu
6.
Chaparral does not support the MC115 inside the USA. We recommend
that purchasers inside the United States return the receiver to
the distributor it was purchased from as it is not FCC approved
for use in the United States.
PROBLEM:
How do you master clear or erase all stored information in the
receivers database?
SOLUTION:
You should not re-initialize (master clear) the receiver unless
you have a memory card or have a valid file to transfer from a computer.
Current databases are available
through our web site or from your equipment provider. Place the
receiver in the standby mode. (Standby light on the front panel
must be lit.) Press and hold the channel up and down keys on the
front panel. While holding the channel keys, press and hold the
front panel power key. The receiver should turn back on. Release
all the keys. If you are viewing the main video output, you will
see the message "DB INIT". After the receiver is finished
with the re-init, turn it back on, check the clock and reload the
database.
PROBLEM:
Receiver keeps doing a database init every time its plugged in
to the AC or after a power outage.
SOLUTION:
The capacitor supplying voltage to the ram is below the operating
range. Leave the receiver plugged in for 1 hour and retest. The
capacitor will hold the receivers memory for 24 to 48 hrs. without
power.
PROBLEM:
Receivers database keeps getting corrupted when using Inclined
Orbit Tracking option.
SOLUTION:
Update firmware to version 16-5292-1G or higher.
