How to get a 522's S00?

[Tom_T.]

What's the button pushing sequence for getting a 522's S00? I need to explain that to someone who has a 522 for sale but claims to know nothing about it.

I'm at the 'ready to buy' stage, and know enough to get the receiver's R00# and S00# cleared with dishnet before clicking the Buy button. I currently have a 301, and both #'s show up on the System Info screen, so I imagine it's the same for a 522. But, how to navigate to that screen with the remote or buttons on the front panel is probably different.

Menu...system setup...installation...system info

even easier

press the button marked system information on the right front of the receiver

So, the 522 uses the same remote control path to System Info as the 301.

And thanks, paxipam. I looked at a close-up picture of a 522 some time ago and I thought I saw a button labeled System Info somewhere on front of the receiver.

If the person selling the 522 can't/won't give you the R00/S00 numbers it is probably a lease owned by DISH.

or on the remote press menu #6 #1 #3 which takes you to the system infor screen
