your timing is off,using the wrong cable,or using the wrong version loader.
You have to start the loader hit next then casually turn the receiver on.
have you checked your com port setting (device manager)
port settings
bits per seconds :115200
data bits :8
parity :none
stop bits :1
flow control :Xon / Xoff
if your settings are the above then Slugworth makes good sense. check loader is selected with a tick applied timing start software before switching receiver on at right moment 7-10sec
a moot point,since the program itself takes control over the comport when used.
I never mess with the windows default setting,which I believe are a lot different.
the loader uses even parity BTW.
hi , can anyone help, i have a skyboxs12 it has stuck on boot i need a 4pin to rs232 adapter can anyone tell me where i can get this or show me what it looks like.
thanks pisher
Hi i am also getting synching stbs ..
please reset target
but i have rs232 to lpt port no rs232 to rs232
could that be my problem
my box is constantly rebooting
loader needs a real rs232 port to function.
isn't there a dos command or a windows utility to redirect lpt to a com port
make friends with somebody with an old pc
