Kryptview Firmware Loading Guide / Tutorial.

[HiTeck]

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.


Null Modem Com/Port setup Tutorial

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.

Once done you will see this message,



Once finished let the box reboot and then your done, congratulations.

Hi all, no channel is coming on after the download just this message "Complete exit". Pls help thanks

after any firmware is put on any box you need to factory reset 0000 to delete and rescan your provider.

Have been on a number of forums to get the information but this is simply the best instructions. You should be writing instructions for a living ;-)

Thanks for tutorial but have hit a snag - hope you can help

Tutorial is excellent - clear and easy to follow. Unfortunately, I have hit what seems to be a common problem. I'm using a USB serial port adaptor/ null modem cable to connect to box but I'm getting the "The downloading is not requested" error in a pop up. There is a further error on the download popup "Read REQ failed". I've been through all the forums and have tried all suggestions. Would appreciate any help!

Very clear and precise instructions. Have just ordered my box and can't wait to follow the instructions tomorrow. Will give feedback. Thanks a million

[remcy]

could any one please help. I have downloaded the firmware, reset my box to default but still cannot receive the channels. It says scramble on most channels. Thanks

[wilf]

have you checked in system info as to what firmware is on the box? anything later than 28/11/08 should be ok as long as you have scanned your box on the correct provider for your area
