Eurovox flashing step by step.

Hi tech Just did what you said in regards to changing the bits and also changed my com port now to com1. Still receiveing the same mesg however when trying to flash. It isnt recognising my box. Is here anywhere i can tae my box to get it done.

 

Try a hard boot reset. Unplug the Eurovox from the back of the box, press download on the UFL, wait a few seconds and then plug it back in again. It may take a few attempts.

If that doesn't work providing you have the correct cable which is a Null modem cable you will have to have it Jtagged or send the box back.

BTW I sent you a PM.

 

Apologies for the wait,

Have you checked to see if the firmware went on your box, If the box powers up go to Menu, Config, System info then OK, please let us know what it says in there.

 

hi guys got a variable attenuator box now working 99% of the time on slows a little then resets itself occasionally.any suggestions to fix that?
thanks
sue

 

hi guys still struggling here. ive re flashed 500pvr and all signal levels are at 8% ive tried to flash it with the 8% signal fix and it says this firmware is not suitable for my box?help
sue

 

The 8% fix is for the Eurovox Max V not the 5000 as far as I recall. What software is on your box at the moment?

 

hi ive just reflashed with the 1.1a again just to see if i can get it going. its driving me bonkers i would appreciate any help you can give me

You are probably scanning on the wrong SR. Who is your provider?

EDIT: Why were you using an attenuator, did you have a signal problem?

 

hi scanning on 6.952 VM ex c&W in mancheter. got all channels using a variable atennuator as signal rate was 90% sksp is 74/75% but pixelates occasionally as signal appears to 'surge' up then down then it rights itself
sue

 

You say your box was working 99% fine after you used the attenuator, why did you flash again? Were the resets happening at Midnight or did they happen at any time?

Apologies but I have to leave soon. BTW Manchester has two SRs 6952 and 6887, although if you used 6952 previously well thats yours.

 

reflashed as the signal keeps going up and down as the box is new i need to know if its that or not we had a blue which worked perfectly and have always flashed on 6.952 its picked up 250 channels but without the atennuato#r on it says no or bad signal

The Blue box tuner was by far the best of any Eurovox tuner, unfortunately they stopped manufacturing them.

The tuners seem to differ in some EX5000s I dont know whether its a driver issue or not. But I have seen people return some for your exact problem and replaced with the same model and all is fine.

I understand your situation as you said you want to see if its the box or cabling at fault. You could try it at a friends house and see if it reacts the same way. If it does you know its the box, if its fine then its your signal. Sorry thats the best I can advise for the moment.

Have to leave so wish you the best of luck.

 

thank you anyway ill try that, also can i download the fta software to put back on it? i dont think they will change it otherwisw
