Ive the clone box and remote going by the pics on your link , also using a null modem cable. I tried entering the keys manually and that didnt work either. Cheers Carl
It might be the software and firmware that u are trying to download, try some of the links under my post for more info.
Still having no luck.. So i thought id buy another null modem cable but from ebay this time. But cant find one that as a usb on one end and rs232 on the other like the one i bought from my local shop for my laptop. Have i been sold the wrong cable Do all null modem cables have an RS232 on both ends Cheers Carl
if you mean the 9 pin holes then yes a null modem cable has them in both ends so u can screw it into ur box and a pc !
Cheers i dont have a 9pin slot on my laptop so was sold a usb with 9 pin on one end only . Guess thats where my problem is. cheer Carl
