Kryptview Firmware Loading Guide / Tutorial.

If you have a PC/Laptop with a 9 pin serial socket then all you need is a Null Modem Cable, see pic below.




If you have a PC/Laptop that doesn't have the 9 pin serial socket you will need a Null Modem Cable and a USB adapter, See pic below.




If you have a PC and you are struggling with the usb adapter or you have Vista like me you could install a PCI serial card which is easily added to you PC and with this all you need is the null modem cable which gives you a direct link from your box to the pc.

USB DB9 device coms/ports set up.



Problems with your PC/Laptop not recognising your box.

To see which port your USB adapter is connected to, connect your USB adapter and follow the following instructions:

1. Go to the Start Menu
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Properties"
4. Click on the "Hardware" tab
5. Click on "Device Manager"
6. Click the + sign next to "Ports (COM & LPT)"
7. One of the listed ports should indicate which port your USB adapter is connected to (e.g. COM1, COM2, COM3, etc.)
8. Go back to your map software program that you use to transfer data and make sure it is looking at the correct port.
9. You should be able to transfer data once the correct port is selected

If you need drivers go here

USB to Serial Adapter driver downloads and documentation

Follow my advice to step 7. Locate your USB Adapter (port *)

Right click on that port and select properties. Then select port settings, then select advanced. At the bottom of that tab will be a drop down box with the port selected (port * in your case). Use the drop down to select another port (eg 1, 2 or 3). If the port you want to use is already allocated to something else, you can use the same procedure to reassign that port after you have finished.
Save the selections in the usual way. The USB converter will be permanently assigned to the port you selected.

how do you down load the Kryptview Loader?

[ruhmuhammad1]

guys, just downloaded and flashed the firmware as per instructions. went into auto install and got nowhere with it...says it found 7 channels but will not go past installation screen. by the way i'm on nthell in waterford ireland. any help would be appreciated-thanks

Great Tutorial.....

A lot of problems people face with channel search is due to the fact that the flashing and subsequent isntallation (easy install) has to be done without the receiver being switched off.

If after the flashing, the box is for some reason switched off (as in my case, i was flashing in a seperate room on my laptop and then carried the box to the room where my TV was), the installation to get channels would not work. The box can be switched off once the scan etc is complete.

if you read up on it there are no boxes working in eire,only a doorstop m8.

Hello,

Can I use the STB Editor to edit my channels and then upload them to the box? If so, How? I have tried the send and recieve functions and nothing happens, the software tells me that the operation was not requested.

thanks

I think you have to power-off box & power-on box after you hit
send button to save channel list to P.C.

Hi everyone

KRYPTVIEW A780 - FILE LOADING

I'm wondering if someone can come to my rescue.

I have gone through the steps as illustrated on this thread, but could not load the file.
I get a message "The downloading is not requested".

I am using 2 cables (null famale to male cable & USB converter) with a small famale connector in between the cables. Nothing is happening.

Could someone put some green light.
I have checked the COM port.

Would it be the cables?? I could not find a single cable.

Your help will be much appreciated.
