All firmware can be found at the bottom of Steo's post here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/535766

 

thanks ive been in there and i got to the stage of downloading dnupman but when i get to the firmware box i don't know what i should be putting in there. should it be the eurovox_max-v_02_07_07.bin ? i put that in and it asks me which com port i want to use, only 3 will do anything and it just says waiting for response from your reciever? sorry if im being a pain but im stumped, thanks for your help

 

Just follow the guide I gave you it depends on which one you have.

 

also on the installation guide you gave me it says after downloading dnupman i should select the flash file in the browse section, i think this is what im missing do you know where i can get it?

 

im cracking up here man, i feel so stupid, i downloaded evrything on steos list and the only one thats doing anything is eurovox_max-v_02_07_07.bin but its just saying waiting on response from your reciever. im running out of things to try, you'd be a legend if you can help me, i don't know what else i can do

 

does the ntl cable have to be connected to the reciever while im doing the installation?

 

That is for the blue box, which is the latest version. I presume you are using a null modem cable between your pc and the box.

 

i got a cable with it today its the rs232 cable is that the null cable? it had 2 female ends so i went out and bought a usb serial converter for it.

 

Arethey similar to these:

USB Adapter info here

yeah they're both the same, i actually got the usb adaptor in Maplin in dublin. does the ntl cable have to be plugged into the reciever when installing?

 

No, assuming that you have got the proper null modem cable and serial port adapter. Is there four dashs like this ---- when you power up the box?

 

yeah got the 4 lil green dashes on it. sorry to keep you up so late man, i've been working on this all day

 

No problem, there might be delays between my answers as I have a few queries on the go.

Run DnUpman.exe, Click the browse button next to the firmware window and select the FLASH file you have. Click download then start.Unplug the power to the Euro Vox MAX then re-apply the power. You should see the firmware been uploaded, then. This will take a minute or two please do not disconnect anything when it is going through this process.

Let me know when this is finished.

 

ok im gonna try it, sorry for sounding stupid but whats a flash file?

 

No problem. It this file eurovox_max-v_02_07_07.bin that you got from Steo's link. I hope you have saved it on your pc, preferable in the same folder as DnUpman.

 

yeah i've just done that, it didn't work it goes according to plan till i click download then start, the message comes up waitng for the response of your reciever. then i plugged it out and back in again waited 5 mins but nothing happened. i just checked thedevice manager in my laptop and the usb adaptor is installed ok so i don't see what im doing wrong.

 

Are you sure it is a USB serial port adapter,(as there aretwo types), and did the null modem cable come with the box.
