Hi All.
I am complete newbie to Freesat, and have just bought my first receiver.
Can anyone advise where I can get a manual for

Blade Media BM5000s Neo​

Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks for that cactikid.
Thats not the same model, I will check packaging. I have emailed seller, but no response.
I have tried to get on Blade website but it is unsecure. I have emailed Blade but no answers.
I will try and figure it out without a manual???????
Thanks again.
 
cactikid.
Looking at your link, the remote is the same just a differing front panel layout, perhaps they operate the same, will try.
I believe the Neo is a newer model?
Thanks.
 
Yes newer model and still in production where as the older one was dropped.
A lot of places close and may reopen on the 4th jan.
 
Thank you cactikid.
Actually had a reply from Blade this morning via email.
The manual link you sent is for the older model, but they say it operates exactly the same.
Just a front panel upgrade.
Have a good 2021.
 
cactikid, hope you do not mind another question?
I read on this forum that this receiver needs a firmware upgrade, Why?
Even company selling brand new unit say it needs latest firmware.
All talking about 9991???? What is that, have you any idea?
Thanks
 
9991 is the code you need to type in your line manually, used to have this box before astra went out, check bees guide on how to set it up,

Oh, dear. Does that mean I have bought a sat receiver that will not work, unless I put the latest firmware on it?
I see a lot of people reporting problems after fw upgades.
I was naive to think it would work out of the box. I only want UK freesat.
Thanks liamt
 
it will work and I don't think that you will need the 9991 FW for free sat its only needed to put lines on, their should be a option on the menu to install the latest FW but cant for the life of me remember where is it

Edit: try opening the menu then update>back up should be an option their to do it via online blade servers or something similar
