HELLO IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE(floyd fans)


Hi guys just to let you know i av v400ee on my 1st gen since friday working gr8,prior to that i had v300ee for a fortnight had the common probs with that so im now a happy chappy.

 

Nice one, i think ill stick it on meself !

 

Thats nice news shaune please turn caps off against forum rules

 

i have also put on version 4.0 yesterday running fine

 

Hi Fergus.
There's 2 bits of software that can be used. I think the one that's include on drews site is called SKYMAX.
If I remember correctly, the other one is called jkeys.

I'm just up road from you well about 35 miles..ish... total confused about this jtag lead, any chance you could have a look at my two clones.....

 

I stand to be corrected on this, but I think the gtrom loader can only use serial ports.

 

yes gtrom is only for serial ports.

jkeys is for jtag-to-serial port & sky keys is for jtag-to-parallel port

 

sorry, i meant sky max not sky keys

 

Thanks for the info mikey. I didn't know one was for serial, one for parallel.

Do you by any chance have schematics for a jtag-serial cable, as I think all the ones I've seen are for parallel, just that I have a few null modem cables, so one of them could be sacrificed in a good cause.

 

ive got 2 diagrams, biffered & unbuffered circuits but both use parallel ports

 

if you got spare null cables im sure somone on ebay would like one - not everyone got one with their starview

 

Neither did I. Left overs from various projects.

Anyway, I found a schematic for the serial-jtag cable, check your pm mikey.

I'll be sticking to the unbuffered parallel.

If anyone else wants the link for the serial-jtag, send me a pm.
I probably won't reply before tomorrow though.

 

hmmm looks even more stressful than the buffered jtag!! it would be nice to build it into the box and wire it up to the serial porton the back. im sure the jtag port on th sv has otherises - basically its a direct connecton to the CPU so who knows...

 

hi can anybody help i've just taken v3 off of a clone and put 257 back on now all i've got is 4 flashing green lines on the front of box remote will not do anything any help much appreciated thanks rich

 

ferg you still around?? after a few more messages i will be joining you in the senior phonebox!!

 

just a bad flash, try again but make sure you wait for the "download complete" confirmation on the pc

 

Looks like it'll be next week now before I get to build mine. 8am-8pm shifts play havoc with shopping for parts.

I know I could buy online, but I just don't do that.

 

you only need a few resistors. you could probably put them in the db25 connector
