hi, update on last request, managed to get tps and channel list came on, but how long does code update last. made mistake somewhere? any help please.

 

Instructions on how to install the Driver,

1.Turn on computer and make sure USB port is available.
2.Plug in USB connector to USB port.
3.The "Add New Hardware WIzard" should appear (if not, then you can 4.open the wizard from the Control Panel)
5.Click "Next"
6.Select "Search for the best driver for your device"
7.Click "Next"
8.Windows will ask you to specify the location of the driver. Please select "Specify a location"
9.Use "Browse" to find the driver in the CD-ROM drive (or wherever the file is located on your hard drive)
10.Click "Next" and then your done.

Try that if it's still not working get to a PC with a 9 pin male serial socket so that you dont have to use the USB adaptor.

 

Thanks for the reply HiTeck. I ended up buying a new adapter and it worked fine so I got that problem solved. I downloaded the firmware onto the box and scanned as outlined on page 1. All seemed to go well but when it finished scanning a message appeared saying "please wait, code being updated". It seems to be frozen as it's been like that for around 40 mins. any suggestions?

 

Turn the box off at the mains, turn it back on and go to sly sports 1 and wait, it should update within 1 min.

 

Thanks HiTeck, got it working!

 

No problem, Glad your sorted!

Anyone know how to manually input the area keys on a eurovox ez1000sl box ?

 

Hi i've recently bought a EUROVOX EX1000SL. For my quality i have 8%, could somebody expand on this for me,I don't really understand the soluton for this?

 

Have you put the latest firmware on it? if so after you flashed it did you do a factory default and then a powerscan using your correct symbol rate. make sure your feed is in the RF in and not the ANT socket.

 

Yes I put the firmware from the first page on, is that the latest?
I did a factory defualt then did a powerscan using the correct symbolfor my area code rught? my feed is in RF in. After I did the scan I got all channels i think, most channels are fine but a few channels are skipping, so they are not coming properly, is there anything i can do to prevent this from happening?

 

Check all your connections are fine, try taking any splitters out or replacing them with a better quality type or try a signal booster you can get them cheap off eb@y.

got to head off best of luck.

 

The wires were a bit messy at the back of my tv, i sorted that out, and the channels are working fine now,

Thanks a lot for the help.

Here's some advice for others.

1. I recommend the Eurovox EX1000SL, it is very small and looks good.
2. My fuse was faulty in the plug,so I had to replace it,so if no lights come on, check the fuse in the plug.
3. Don't have messy wires, try and keep things neat and tidy.

Btw, could somebody tell which boxes have two tuners, so you can watch channel whilst recording another channel. I know the eurovox's only have one tuner.

Thanks.

 

Glad to see you have tidied up and all is well, as regards a two tuner box, The Starview PVR has two tuners, but you are better off judging for yourself. >>>

Is this the same as the box twin tuner version?
