My System: Dreambox 500S |
Hi, Please, I really need help. I just bought a Dreambox 500 Plus S and tried to install a img file using Flash Wizard 6.3. Seems that the image I tried was wrong. I did the installation via LAN. The issue now is that I turn on Dreambox and I just get the Red and Green lights flashing simultaneously without stopping. If I press the StandBy button on the front of the box I can then see some green lights inside the box. Please, what should I do? Do I need Null Cable and then DreamUp? Thanks... | ||

My System: DM 500s. 95cm dish 0.1 best LNB Dark motor 1.3 | Agreed. 232 null modem cable, dream up which is an official DMM bit of software click on flash erase. when that is finished click on flash it will ask you if you want to flash erase again... yes. That way it gets a double format! hope that helps. | ||

Rover ST-4 Meter Cyfra+ Subscription | You should only really use flash wizard with a box that it supports 100% like the 7000 or 7020  It will work to some extent with the 500 but i only use it if i can't get access to anything else  | ||

Rover ST-4 Meter Cyfra+ Subscription | Start dreamup, select the right com port that your null modem cable is connected to and then press connect. It will then ask you to switch on your receiver you then switch on your receiver  Does Dreamup report that it is connected to your box , the box type and that the box is ready?  Nano | ||
