I have a Topfield tf3200ir and I am having problems downloading software from my pc using the RS-232 port.
'-When I connect the two my pc does not detect that a receiver is connected.Do I need to download drivers for the receiver to enable my pc to detect it?
'-I am using a female-to-female 9-pin straight through serial cable could that be a problem?The official Topfield download instructions mention "PC pin 5 <-> STB pin 5" etc and I am not sure what this refers to since the RS-232 connection has got 9 pins
-'The instructions also say that before I start I should 'turn off the target stb' does that mean I should put it on standby or disconnect it from the power source?
Please help if you are familiar with receiver updates..
