advice concerning my euro vox

advice concerning my euro vox what should i do throw it in the bin? i've only had it a week now the rules have changed.Can some one please offer me some advice.

 

No need for the bin when a bin file can sort it I presume its a Black Max V, have a look at SG8's guide to updating here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/653745

 

Nice one scOuser lad, but i'm new to this game and i only know how to put the lotto numbers in by using the remote control.If there's any other way you can prompt me it would be well appreciated.

 

LOL I understand, but if you have a Max V by following this guide word for word, you can update your box. After it has been updated it will work again.

 

Listen scOuser mate it's a euro vox o8 we're talking about the way you are trying to help me is completely confusing i'm a novice.What i only know is press menu then yellow button etc really basic ,as they stopped them numbers i'm struggling mate.I dont fully understand the rules on this site?i dont know if i can give my e- mail.Basically i bought the box because i cant get out much due to illness and i'm on oxygen 24/7 so the telly is a pleasure.I only had it a week i changed the numbers twice then this site went down.I feel like i've been stitched,sorry for the life story.thanks for your help

 

mate,
you need to READ the thread that Scouser gave the link to !!!
READ it and ALL will be revealed !

as he said himself, ALL the info you need is right there !

 

Thanks for your encouragement i'm tired and not thinking straight at the moment.I will get a friend round tomorrow and hopefully we'll crack it cheers mate.

 

Dell if you do have any problems just shout and we will help you out. Gaurantee you will have it working again.

 

Morning Scouse lad,sorry if i appear to be thick but i've sat stirring at that thread and nothings revealing.Phoned a friend and he reckons i need to buy a lead? thanks for your patience

 

If you read the thread scouser posted it plainly states you need the cable.... There is actually pictures of the cable you need! You need to read and follow to the letter to update correctly

Updating Eurovox Max V with Kuro 18.04.08 UPDATED
1. Hook up your Eurovox to your PC using a null modem cable. (9 pin female to 9 pin female). Null Modem Cable must be used, looks the same as a standard RS232 lead but it is wired differently.


2. Run the Kuro Unified Flash Loader (download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?xynenwxvyjy )

2a (Optional step: Press the Upload button to save your channel set up favourites etc as they currently are) Save this to a folder on your PC for use later.

3. Click on the 'download' button at the top of the screen.

4. The program will say 'Version 2.10 detected' (or it may say some other version!) and restart your Eurovox, it will then go through the downloading process, when finished it
will display 'Downloading is successful' .

5 . Press the Menu button on your remote, and then go into 'Config' menu and select 'Clear Data'

6. It will then ask for your PIN (default is 0000)

7.Then select 'Factory Default'

8. It will then ask you to select the symbol rate (I use 6.887 as I am on NThell Dublin).not sure if this matters at this stage though.

9. Press OK when 'Reset to Factory Default Settings' comes up

10. It will then say 'Wait to Factory Settings' and will then start to do a Full Power Scan (using the Symbol rate you selected earlier or you can change the symbol rate here)

11. It will then search through for channels, Go and make a cup of tea while it works away, do not interrupt it until it finishes.

12. It wil then exit to allow you to view your programs, but the code being updated message will probably come up for a while,

13. Put the box onto Sky Sports and go make another cup of tea. It may only take a few mins but again do not interrupt it (even if you think it is not working!)

14. Sky Sports will come up and all your channels will be back and you won't have to manually enter your codes anymore.

15. If you did the optional step at 2a, then browse to where you saved your file (CDF file) and click download in the lower box on the Kuro program, and it will reload your favourites etc. as
you originally had them.

 

Thank you for your time i will go and get a cable asap and follow instructions cheers.

 

Or get your mate to do it for you if you have difficulty understanding it. As the guide is a step by step procedure.

 

The cable i need is it called a,"null modem cable"?as i will send my mate to pick me one up and the cost roughly thanks mate

 

mate not being funny, but a simple check of google will tell you that, maplins, ebay etc,

 

Depends on where you are , Maplins do them for around the €20 mark, whereas you can get them on fleabay for a few quid. Depends on how quick you want it as it takes a day or two on fleabay, but much cheaper.

Sorry I have to leave for a bit.

 

Snap

 

thanks mate sorry but like i said from the begining i'm a complete novice who's looking for help and advice,try to remember your early days,that's where i'm at.cheers

 

we all had to learn how to tie our laces at one stage, but the above is everything you need and if you read the link that scouser gave you, there is pics of the cable and the name of it!

 

I've just got the right cable(L718T-Null Modem)£10:00,but i cant do anything til friday(a short stint in hospital).So if your still up for and if i have any trouble i'll give you a shout on friday.Cheers Dell.
