Replay Lite

No prob m8

 

I have read most of this thread & i cant belive that nobody has had the same problem with updating their replay box as me.

I have a replay lite SW version - 7.44 , which i understand i have to update to 7.52.

Downloaded 7.52 and stblink 5.20

The rs232 null modem cable is connected the replay box and pc (with usb extention because my pc doesnt have a 9pin rs232 port)

I open stblink 5.20 , com setup 1 and 2 gives the same answer - connection error


Can some1 plz help me wasting hours of me life & stop me crying?

 

Hi hotrocks,

An ordinary RS232 cable won't work.
Are you sure it's a null modem lead, part number L71BT.
If it is take the lead out of the box and try again.
if it still doesn't work, unplug the null modem lead and reconnect.
Open up the stblink, UNTICK maintain user data and press Upgrade software, you will get a warning message, Ignore this.

There are 515 blocks to transfer to the box, during this time the red/green will flash slowly on the box.

When all blocks are transferred, WAIT a couple of minutes more for the red/green to be flashing muchmuch faster than it was when you could visibly see the blocks transferring, roughly 2 minutes.
Because the box has to accept the upgrade even after all blocks have transferred.

exit the stblink, take out the null modem lead and unplug the box.
Plug the box back in and only then conect the scart snd tv cable.

You will have to then do a scan for stations.

If you live in Ireland
start freq 290
end freq 403
symbol rate 6887
constellation 64 QAM
Search by network ON

This won't take long to find all your stations.

If you live in the UK
Start freq 290
end freq 692
symbol rate 6887/6952
constellatioN 64 Qam
Search by network ON

 

Thank you for your time Brian

This was the cable i bought + USB to Serial port convertor cable which i take is the right ones -


Serial Null Modem Cable - 9 pin Female to 9 pin Female - 2 metre

Null modem cables are used to transfer data between machines.

Occasionally used for data transfer between two PC's (use Windows Direct Cable Connection software or LapLink) but more commonly now, used to update Satellite/Cable Receivers from your PC (please check your instructions to make sure this is the correct cable).

Suitable for Dreambox, Technomate, Humax, EchoStar, Manhattan and may more. If your receiver has a 9pin socket on it, then this cable should work great.

High quality cable with moulded ends, with thumb screw fasteners, for secure easy connecting.
Brand New in Sealed Poly Bag.

It must be plugged into a 9pin serial port on your PC. If you don't have one, we also sell a USB to Serial port convertor cable.

i've done all this as you said but still get the connection error.


Do i have to install a driver for the null + usb cable?

As i have NO com ports at the back of pc!(even though theres an option in device manager).

Do i need to reconfigurer and set the null + usb cable as 1 of the com ports within device manager(as theres only 2 options when using STB LINK 5.20, com port 1 + com port 2)


ANY IDEAS, ANY ONE

 

Hi hotrocks,

If you know anyone with a working box, you can clone your box from theirs.
What part of the country are you in?
Try connecting the cables with your computer off and restart the computer and try again.
Don't try the setup comm, just UNTICK the maintain user data in the stblink and press the upgrade button, this is called forcing the flash. The red/green light will flash slowly, wait until it's flashing much much more quickly than it did when the blocks were transferring, only then unplug the the null modem lead and unplug the box. Power up again and do a chanel search as above.

hi all, i have just joined this forum. i have been reading all about the lite box for months now. i have a problem now. i havn't got a null modem cable, i paid someone to get all the channels on the box. lots went missing lately, i tried an auto scan and all the channels gone. is there an easy way to get them back or will i pay again?

 

Hi angie97,

Don't pay anybody to get your channels, you can do this yourself, no problems.


You should buy a null modem lead part number L71BT as you will need it in the future, don't accept anything that has not the part number L71BT. you can get it in maplins.

What software is on your box?
to find this out, go to menu, utility, receiver information.
SW Version should read 7.52

Are you on nhell and what part of the country or country are you (roughly)

You should have found channels with an auto scan.
Did you find them and were you getting a 1800:scrambled signal.

 

thanks for replying. i am in dub 10. on nhell. i will check my lite box tomorrow to see if what you said is on it, and get back to you. thanks again.

 

No problem angie 97,

Make sure Parental lock is OFF.
To do this go to, menu, user installation, parental lock.
Password should be 7777, if this doesn't work try 0000.
Turn off parental lock and install lock, change password to 7777
Exit back to TV.



To do a scan in your area,

Menu,
Auto Search,
Use the remote control to put in the frequencies below.
Start Frequency 290
End frequency 403
Symbol Rate 6877
Constellation 64 QAM
Search by Network ON
Search
In a couple of seconds it will start to find channels and in a little over 4 minutes the search will be complete.
Select VIEW

Your box will then by default to the last channel on your list.
Probably 147 nick toons. I just did a rescan and I am dublin 9 and that's exactly what should happen with your box.

You can go to menu, Channel manager, TV channel and sort them to whatever order you want.

 

Liverpool TV is now on nhell Ire on freq 394
They are showing a replay of the Birmingham match.

No need for a rescan, as it is in the same place as Rangers TV.
So just go to channel manager..TV channel...green button for edit
rename channel and just type in the new name, LFCTV where Rangers TV is listed.

 

hi brian 1956.

dont know where to start.
first of all, the menu screen wont turn off, even when i use the exit button. anyway i found the software number
sw version 7.50
hw version 1770-1.0-cs100

also when i go into parental lock my remote wont change anything, even trying to change the frequency the remote control wont change the frequency or symbol.

think i need a miracle.

 

brain me man was lookin at rangers tv there and it comes up blue screen and no signal on top o screen do you remember i asked about that a while back nat seem to get it at all

 

Hi angie97,

Software 7.50 will need to be updated to 7.52
To do this you will have to buy a null modem lead in maplins, part number L71BT don't buy anything that has not got this part number on it.

The rest of the software can be obtained in the link under the picture at Eamos Library.

Go to the replay section.

In the firmware folder you will find the files used to update or fix your box.

Download the 752irl file to your desktop.

In the software folder you will find,

download the Stblink5.20, the file used to transfer the firmware from your PC to your box.

In Documentation folder you will find,

Download Flashing the replay lite PDF.This is a guide to show you how to update the box.


When you get the null modem lead, check back here and someone will guide you through the process.

Anyone in the Dublin 10 area clone a replay lite for Angie?

 

Hi moggser,

To do a manual search for liverpool tv,

Manual search, up pops the box,

Channel Number CH1
Frequency 394
Symbol Rate 6887 ( it also works on 6875 )
Con 64QAM
Search by Network ON
Search................


In a couple it will start to find channels and it will find all channels on that frequency....when search is over...select View.

The new channels will be stored on the box after the channels you have already saved.So it won't upset the already saved channels.
If You had 147 channels, the new ones will be stored from 148 onwards.

Use the channel manager to delete and move the new channels to wherever You want.


Hope they who we shouln't mention arn't messing around again.

 

sorry brian not pickin anything up at all doin all of what you said there
