eurovox 5000 firmware install problems

hi there,

can someone please help me. I have a eurovox 5000. to download the lasest firmware i bought a usb serial adaptor but can't load the new firmware as the programme can't find my reciever.

 

did you follow HiTecks guide ? link is in my sig

Post on the thread exactly what your problem is and someone will give you a dig out (but if you follow the guide you probably won't need it)

 

No joy with that, it only gives me 4 com ports and my usb is port 6

 

Did you read the bit about asigning USB ports on page1 ?

 

HI,

Can anyone tell me does the Eurovox 5000 work in the Dundalk area. I've chorus ntl in the house, used that feed but am still getting no channels. Some one told me that they don't think it works in the Dundalk area but only in Dublin and the 1000 model may be better suited. Any advise or help out there would be much appreciated.

 

The Eurovox works in the Dundalk area. Just make sure you are following the instructions properly. Common mistake is the cable link up is not inserted in the RF IN Channel

 

Many thanks for your help Westawake.

 

Would it be possible that you may know the link for the lastest download for the Eurovox 5000?

thanks again.

 

Hi, Can you tell me the signal that I need to scan the Eurovox 5000 on? There is three to choose from. 6952 6887 and one other. I'm in the Dundalk are, does it make any difference. Thank you

 

Yes of course it makes a difference, if you setup on the incorrect frequency then you will not receive the service, so you need to know who your provider is N*L 6887 - Cho*us 6875 it is one or the other, and do as SG8 has suggested go to the Eurovox link at the bottom of my post, better still click here >>>>>>>>>

And follow HiTeck's guide, you will also get the Firmware you have requested there also.

 

Thanks for all the help, its very good of you. I'm just a little confused as the lads that installed the box had ntl on their shirt. Ntl comes up on their box when its turned on but Chorus comes up on the screen on the tv. They have merged I'm aware. Maybe it's best to try both signals?

 

Won't do any harm at all, if it does not get the channels on 6887 then make sure you do a Factory Default before using the Ch*rus symbol rate, and I hope you have flashed your box with the Firmware? and you are quite sure it is not Ch*rus MMDS?

 

Tried both scans and nothing. I've installed the firmware from the link. I'm now going to try the factory default with the Ch+rus symbol rate. I had to put an adopter on the cable that goes into the Rf in part and I was wondering at this stage if that adapter was faulty. Hopefully not and the Factory default will work. Thanks again for all your help, very much appreciate it.

 

AAAAAAAAAAAhhhhh, nothing on the factory default. I'm almost at the giving up stage. I've tried almost everything. Anyone in the Dundalk area that can help. Anyone at all that can help. This is so frustrating. Please help, its driving me nuts, Thanks

 

Hi again, I think my cable is Ch*rus MMDS. Does this make a difference? Is the box compatiable with this? Thanks once more for your time and help.

 

I have Ch+rus MMDS for by cable. Does the Eurobox work on this ?

 

no eurovox won't work on that you will need the box T ,digivox t or the eurovox tx

 

Thanks for the reply. You've saved me hours of headaches and plenty of time. Thanks again

 

anders91, but I did tell you up above about the possibility of MMDS and making sure about that fact, think you could have saved yourself a bit of headache/hassle, don't you. >>>>>>
