    A question about valid ids on dsr 905s?

    ADVERTS 1
    Does anyone know what valid id numbers are for programable dsr 905 receivers are? The last thing i want to do is buy a boat anchor. I read that for dsr 922 and 920 an id running from 00-12F2-0012F5 or beginning with 001463 are needed. Does the same hold true for the 905?

    Early 905's can have funky numbers. Best thing to do is get the number of the receiver in question and call NPS or SRL, they will tell you if the number is good. If you already have it than have them test hit it to see all is well.

    My 905 has a unit ID that has to be converted to hexadecimal also. The digicipher ID displayed in the screen and label on the back are different than what the providers need to sub the unit.

    They can convert the ID for you. It's a good idea to keep a copy of that number handy for future reference.
