what do you mean?

What I've done is upload the channel list to ChannelMaster then download it once you are done with updating the software. All my settings stayed

How do I upgrade the software.I am not a computer genius.I am 72 and bought my first computer 3 years ago not knowing anything about it .I still don't know much.
Thanks,Reinhold.

and download the loader and the latest firmware for it, attache your serial cable (null or straight depending on the ird, I dont know what flu needs) to your computer and ird, use the switch at the back to turn the ird off, press connect in the software and turn the ird on. wait for it to complete.
