If you look at the bottom of fergus's posts you will find everything you need.

I assume you have NULL MODEM Cable and USB-SERIAL adaptor (if required?)

 

thanks a mil sgb. ive seen the help at bottom of fergus' posts, but when i download the "software" my computer is givin me the above msg from windows, ie it isnt downloadin the bin file. do i need to have an application to do this for me?

 

Yes, did you download the stuff from Fergus's links ?

Do you have the cables etc. ?

 

ive downloaded LOADER, VIDEO and KRYPTViEW aRNeT loading Instructions.doc. i have the correct cables im pretty sure yep. when i try download the "software" it gives me the msg above, and im wondering how to correctly download this bin file software ! tks a mil for your assistance

 

can get the kryptveiw i heard once theres free to air channels still working these will not go off is this fact or somthing said to try and get rid of them any feedback.i miss me football dont know if its worth the risk

 

kryptview are the only boxes working with nagra 2 at the moment untill when we dont know but if you get even 2 months out of one of these boxes then it will have paid for itself compare to sub fees.

you dont open the file save it to your desktop you use the loader to load the file to the box

turn the box off at the back open the loader get the file on it hit download and then turn on the box at the back and let it flash

 

think im making progress lads, thanks a mil to all. got to clicking "start" on the code send and its giving me the msg "cant open serial port com 1, pls check if the com port has the following parameters ......... " any ideas !?

 

(ive tried searching in device manager, but couldnt find " Ports (COM & LPT) " to find what port my usb is connected to)

 

anyone out there or are ye all on the beer !?!?! i think ive found the port. now i think i need a driver, any suggestions where or how to download one, presuming i require one ??

 

cant get past "cant open serial port com 2, pls check if the com port has the following parameters ........."

 

this is the message i get and for the life of me i cant figure out what to do. a little "stb editor" box appears immediately after i press "start" to download the stuff with -
"Cant open serial portComp 1
Please check if the com port has the following parameters.
Baudrate : 115200bps
Parity: no parity
Databyte : 8 bit/data
Stop bit : 1"

 

what type of pc do you have and is it vista,also if you have a friend with a pc use his to flash it(see will it work)or get hold of an old pc (they have seriel ports,no need for usb adaptors or driver discs).just plug one end of a null modem cable in to your box and one end in the pc.i got hold of an old desktop with a seriel port(now no problems)my laptop has vista on it(vista is crap for flashing boxes)i think if you know a friend as i say you could try it on his pc(but as i say vista not anygood for flashing, you need winxp)also you dont open the bin file,download downtool_0927.exe its here on this site,and then download bin file(latest bin file will say 30/04/09.you then have to open downtool in your pc.on top of screen you will see, channel edit,sdx edit,favourite edit,download(click on download)a small box will appear(code send)in file box click open(here you find your bin file(click on it,click on open)your bin file should now be on screen in the code send box.set com port.turn the power in box off,click on start,then power on box.should start to download now.(the front display on your box should be green line.it will say 100% (but still wait untill it says flash success(box will reboot itself)do not pull any cables out untill all this has been done.then choose provider and scan.

 

thanks p. i have a vista yep. piece of manure it seems. im not sure i know anyone with an old pc but i will ask around. i have done all you say, but when i press start i get the msg above. thanks again for your assistance tho
