    If you want to update the new firmwa*e you need the null modem cable , the loader is built into it so when you click the middle download button it puts the file on without you havening to browse for it ... Put it on stand-by

    You need to flash the critical update to your box. You will find it in Eamos FTA Library at the bottom of all my posts in the Eurovox Firmware folder called UFL_MAX_V_06_09_07.zip.

    You do not need a loader just the null modem cable and the critical update all the info is here on this thread. I am leaving for the evening so best of luck.

    Hi,

    My Eurovox Max V 2008 was working fine until today when it froze and when I unplugged it and plugged it back in it got stuck on standby mode with just 2 green dots showing on the front. Do you know if the box is broken or can it be reset or any other solutions?

    Thanks in advance

    Am I right in saying that the box has to be in standby mode when updating with the critical update?

    No as that is for the parallel port of you pc you need to convert to a serial connection.

    Your laptop may not have a DB9 interface as most new ones don't.Thats why you have to use your usb interface in conjunction with the null modem cable.

    Do not mix a USB to Serial Cable when its USB to Serial Port Cable that is required.Some people get this wrong when asking. You will then have the required Port to connect the Null Modem Cable to.


    Null modem cable info

    USB Adapter info

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx...t10&doy=search&MenuName=USB to Serial Adaptor

    These are for reference only as they can be purchased much cheaper on fleabay.

    No problem. Yes you use that in conjunction with the null modem cable. So essentially you use both of them together.

    Just to be clear, so I don't cock it up, do I turn the box off when connecting and disconecting the cable only, when flashing the new critical update?. I.E the box needs to be on during the process.
