More and more people have reported that their receivers showing “ON” on the front panel and are dead as a hammer…



Indeed, writing complete TSOP image is the only solution. The s/w available from Metaware does not contain BOOT sectors – this is why even after flashing the M29W160DT chip with it nothing happens.



In this regard, can someone post COMPLETE TSOP BACKUP (2048 kb) for Metabox I; II and III? This will help others to resurrect their hardware. Perhaps one of our friendly moderators…?

Hi every one have a same problem:

after approximatly one month with help my friends i could solved that problem.

In first step you should make JTAG cable. you can find software and schematic map in below address.

http://www.megaone.com/emetabox/software.htm

software name is jkey...

after that you must program your receiver with JKEY and flash rom dump file...

OK..again you can find that in this address

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/emetabox

Go to the files link and download file you need.

after that try , your receiver should go from ON to Strt when power on that.

ok....now you should update that software and channels with RS232 Cable.

you can find update software and programmer in this address

http://www.megaone.com/emetabox/software.htm

what do your receiver?

my receiver is a good boy...after that procedure do good work...work better befor ;)

suggest: i want buy a small and powerfull fan because the heat sink of microcontroller so hot when i`m show the channel.

i think after that my receiver hang up decrease...

abstract:

1- Download JTAG software and make JTAG cable

2- Dwonload Flash rom Dump file

3- Program your receiver with JKEY software and flash file

4- Download Upgrade file and Sender software

5- Update your receiver with Sender software and Upgrade file also with RS232 Cable

-- if you want but a small and powerful fan.

Metabox1 Black Box have a STi5518 MicroController..that`s a so powerful chip with extreme ability...that chip manufacture has ST Microcontroller

if you want see ability and features you can download Datasheet from this address

have nice day and night with Digital Tehnology ;)
