How to: Update Eurovox Max V with Kuro 18.04.08 (R.I.P 28/11/2008)

Make sure you get the correct one as there are different ones

Heres the NULL MODEM CABLE Code L71BT



USB Adapter Cable Code ZP43W

 

hey can someone help me tryin to flash a box but it keeps sayin no COM ports how can i change the ports manually

 

go to my computer view system info-hardware-device manager-select coms&lpt Double click find your usb adapter go to port settings-advanced and make sure your usb is set to between 1-4 whichever's available if none are available just force windows to allocate one.

 

To see which port your USB adapter is connected to, connect your USB adapter and follow the following instructions:

1. Go to the Start Menu
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Properties"
4. Click on the "Hardware" tab
5. Click on "Device Manager"
6. Click the + sign next to "Ports (COM & LPT)"
7. One of the listed ports should indicate which port your USB adapter is connected to (e.g. COM1, COM2, COM3, etc.)
8. Go back to your map software program that you use to transfer data and make sure it is looking at the correct port.
9. You should be able to transfer data once the correct port is selected

Follow my advice to step 7. Locate your USB Adapter (port *)

Right click on that port and select properties. Then select port settings, then select advanced. At the bottom of that tab will be a drop down box with the port selected (port * in your case). Use the drop down to select another port (eg 1, 2 or 3). If the port you want to use is already allocated to something else, you can use the same procedure to reassign that port after you have finished.
Save the selections in the usual way. The USB converter will be permanently assigned to the port you selected.

 

This is a tad faster ;-)

1. Click START
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Manage"
4. Click on "Device Manager"

 

It is if they are computer illiterate if not they will be stumped

 

It looks like I have downloaded the new software correctly to the box. Trouble is I can't find the factory reset as mentioned in step 9

 

menu config should be in there

 

Found more info a few pages back saying go into Clear Data - Factory reset etc. (did say I was not technically gifted) It's scanning at the momnent so fingers crossed !

 

great stuff when it is finished go to a scrambled channel and let it update ok

 

Went to one when it finished, channel came on straight away!! Now all I have to do is get the fecking picture full screen. Thanks for all the help

 

into config and setup it will show you in there full screen

 

Managed to do that on my own! Could get the hang of these techninal things!!

 

well done

 

Need some help please.
I have a Black Eurovox MaxV which was dropping channels, giving a no signal error. I also have a replay lite which works fine off the same input. So I upgraded the box again,I had already done it in April, with the UFL_MaxV_Kuro3_18_04_08 file. I then selected factory default & did a rescan but only 4 channels have come up but no stations. My settings are as follows

Model - DVB-XC BOXV DTA, S/W VER 1.0 STC4 APR 18 2008
H/W VER 2.0T K5, BOOTSTRAP V001, S/W BUILD KURO

Any ideas would be appreciated

 

Are you scanning from the direct feed??

 

Thanks for replying
Yes, direct feed

 

What area and provider?

 

Dublin & NTHELL

 

I see in Eamo's library there is a firmware update dated 28/04/08.
Should I update my Eurovox MaxV with this I wonder?
