Eurovox Max V 15/10/07 New Firmware

There is digital in our area on the cable.
We have not subscribed but some neighbours have it.

 

Here are the latest frequencies for Ch**** True Cable: It is area dependent so not 100% these are for Dublin.

6875 symbol rate

274.000 371.000
282.000 378.000
290.000 394.000
298.000 410.000
306.000 427.000
314.000 444.000
322.000

Codes using the same symbol rate of 6875.

 

My thanks to all who posted and helped in the latest firmware for Eurovox 8.Only some advice needed as I installed the latest Oct firmware an dall the channels are fine and a much better enhanced menuu and EPG.My problem is now if I go into Instalation It brings up timer settings,when I enter timer settings it brings up instalation menu.Only a small point and its no prob...but was looking for a answer to this prob and possible solution.
Again many thanks to all concerned for the help and updates to help me keep my box working ok

is there a null modem cable that goes to usb?

 

Yuo need to use something similar to this in conjunction with the null modem cable:

USB Adapter info

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx...t10&doy=search&MenuName=USB to Serial Adaptor

 

wouldnt the above cable be able to go straight into the back of the eurovox? or would i definitely need the null modem cable as well?

 

No as you will need it to be the proper config and gender type this can be attained by using both the null modem cable and adapter together.

 

Hi I got a eurovox max yesterday installed ok but when I came to select the chanels nothing happened and the it froze so turned off and then restarted now all i get when pressing any button is the language bar saying english and have to disconect to lose this mesage any solutions

 

Can you acess the menu?

 

would i be able to flash a eurovox max v using a mac?

 

no I took it back to supplier he tested it by conecting to his cable and tv found out the remote had gone so he suppled a new one now works fine, thanks all the same

 

Hi Scouser and Celtic 71
Celtic you gave me the symbol rate of 6875 for Ch****
It didn’t work, found no channels. Im in Wicklow
Also tried the two default rates of 6952 T******t and 6887 N** They didn’t work.
When I scanned I didn’t scan for the particular frequencies you gave me I just went into the user installation menu,
hit the yellow button for a power scan,
changed the symbol rate to 6.875Mbd and ,
let it scan the whole band from 100-870MHz
But it didn’t find any channels.
Did I do right or should I get it to scan for the specific frequencies you gave me ?
Before you ask, yes the co-ax is in the RF socket and there is a signal on it (if I take it out of the box and put it into TV the “normal channels “ come up) and I can see when the box scans it sees a “level” and “quality” of 88-90% on some frequencies, lower levels on other frequencies.
Any other suggestions or should I just start scanning from 6.000mbd all the way up to 6.999.
Thanks for the help

 

i cant flash the programs onto the box because i dont have the usb adapter to null cable maplins didnt have any so i just got the null cable direct from port to port

 

anyone got any ideas on how to flash it without using the usb adapter anyway of flashing just using the normal null modem cable


any ideas??

 

You say you you see normal channels are you sure you are in a digital area as opposed to an analogue one? Is your emulator on press menu, language setting and type 1968 on RC.

 

Borrow a stand alone pc as it will have a D9 serial port and you can use just the null modem cable then.

 

No there are definate bugs to be Ironed out. Cork has probs as well.On my New Box i got 20 channels of an available 130 that i still have on the older box with sept update - And Ive tried everything even going back to the old sept Firmware on the eurovox 2008 but Im stuck - I dont know what Im doing wrong

 

I had the same prob but you can get an adapter quite easy many stores would have it not just maplin - only thing is you want to know what your doing because the dowloader uses com 1 to 4 and when you install the bridge adaptor it somewhere around com 50 to 60. of course you can change this too

Well Ive tried this and it did pick up the same channels as it found prevoiously 20 to 30 but i lost favourite functionality from remote even though i can see they are clearly still marked.
