from another same digital receiver connecting them with a
RS232 cable.
To transfer receiver data, perform the following steps:
1. Plug a RS232 cable into the RS-232 port on the digital
receiver and the other’s.
2. Turn both of them on.
3. Select the Installation > Transfer Firmware > Transfer
Data to Other IRD menu.
NOTE All of preference settings are transferred together with

You had better memorize some important data such
as video settings before starting transfer to avoid re-
setting them.
