Hi, does anyone know what cable can be used on a windows 10 laptop (ie usb to rs232)? If not windows 10, then which operating software? I know windows 7 works on my desktop
Hi, does anyone know what cable can be used on a windows 10 laptop (ie usb to rs232)? If not windows 10, then which operating software? I know windows 7 works on my desktop
ive tested on win7 and also on win10
Is that with a laptop?
Got f5s with the dim 8 problem. Anyone got any ideas? Tried several loaders, but with no luck. Not tried a different psu, but it does work on my own f5s box. Is it still worth trying another?
Normally when the dim red light is on and a figure 8 shows it means the EPROM chip has failed.
No fix so a bin job.
Cheers mate, thought that would be the case
Please help. I have a v6 box stuck on load, but when i try to flash, to the point where i turn the power on i get the dim 8. When i cancel the upgrade it thenreverts back to be stuck on load. Any ideas???
hi darvash thanks for the useful info but I've noticed that when said box's go down particularly clones
like F5's for example & I know they are clones because after opening them up they don't have a
separate power section inside anyway it tends to be the front display gadget/device the one which
displays the channel numbers/on-off display column is the part which is not working @ all which
makes said box FUBAR & door wedge material however thanks for the useful info my Man & a
happy new year to you all
Hello. First, sorry for my English.
I have a openbox s9 HD pvr.
My problem was that my S9 don't boot and always show in the panel a red led.
I read all post and tried a lot of ways to revival receiver but always shows error STB...
My solution was that my power supply was bad. C11 is 10V and 1000microF. I change him for a new condensator and... all works fine!!!
My problem was only the power supply don't firmware.!!!
I hope that my experience helps someone.
Cheers.
Hi, anyone got a link to cloned firmware for an f3? It's stuck on 97, it seem to re-flash fine, but depending which firmware i use, it either stays on 97, loads to 97 and then loops or sticks at 97 for a short while and then goes to E001. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
cheers for this will give it a go
can someone send a link as to where i can buy the correct rs232 to usb cable to flash openbox v8s thanks using laptop and windows 8 to do it with
You can get the Null Modem Cables from eBay, I have tested these below and they worked for me!
Serial RS232 Null Modem Cable - DB9F to F - 2m

and if you dont have a serial port on your computer/laptop you will need a USB to Serial Converter (below).
PLEASE NOTE MOST COMPUTERS SOLD IN THE LAST 15 YEARS OR MORE PROBABLY WONT HAVE A SERIAL PORT, SO THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE YOU WILL NEED ONE OF THESE.
Prolific PL-2303HXD USB to RS-232 Serial Adaptor Compatible Windows 10 8 7 Vista

Hope this helps.
