Replay Lite

ok did you install the drivers with the cable?

 

One disc came with the USB converter and I put that in and it said that it was installed.

 

ok check the com ports now

 

First of all have you installed the driver for your USB converter. Next, have you configured your usb as a comm port. If not do the following (provided by Gman)

START
Right Click "MY COMPUTER"
Choose "MANAGE"
In the resulting window, click on "DEVICE MANAGER"
In the right hand pane, click on the little plus sign beside "PORTS" in the right hand pane.
Right click on the USB Adapter (Should be something like "Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm. Port (COM#)
Choose "Properties"
Click on "PORT SETTINGS" TAB
Click on "ADVANCED"
Then you will see the COM Port Number Box. You should be able to change it there using the drop down box.
Try to set it to COM2
Restart Windows (Only if necessary)

Set STBLink to COM2 & try to connect.

If that fails try another port number.

 

In the stb link it has comm port 1 and 2 but no matter which one I put on it doesn't change. When I put the USB converter in it said something about comm port 5.

 

try that onmy last post and or try port 5 if ya can

 

Right so, I did all that in your post but still no luck. It was set to comm 5 so I changed it to 1 then 2. Neither worked. It just says the system cannot find the file specified when I change the port in the stb link. It only shows 2 options in the stb link too.

 

hmmm ok is the cable def the right part number lb71t

 

Umm, there's no number on the Null Modem lead except the order code which is L71BT. On the USB Serial Converter it says its for USB to RS-232 serial interface.

Hi, I don't know if anyone can help me. My dads friend from golf lives in Sutton and he has a replay lite. He is not computer literate and he is looking for someone to come and fix his box, or he can drop it off. If anyone is looking for a nixer could you reply to this and I will put him in contact with you or send you on his details.
Thanks !!

 

just sent you a pm

 

hey there moggser, i am also in the south area of london (croydon/mitcham) and was just wondering if you could tell me of anyone who could do my firmware update on my replay lite box (if it's for a fee, no probs)..

i explained in my previous post as to why i am scared of doing anything to it myself..

let me know if you or anyone can help.. thanks again..

 

This really is getting on my wicks end, I hate working with computers, they can be so finicky.

Anyways, I did something last night and it said that it was uninstalled and to restart if I wanted to re install it. They laptop froze on me so I just took the battery out.

Today now, when I put the USB cable in the laptop doesn't even acknowledge that it's there. Also, when I put the driver disc in, it doesn't load up it just shows me some goddamned files. When I find one that said I could install it, it told that it couldn't find INF files whatever that means.

Seriously lads, I don't know how you can do this stuff.

 

I'm near enough to sutton, if you still are looking for the box to be updated send me a private message
