Jambutty Not Jammin'

[jambutty]

Hi all,
Good evening to you all, or is it good morning as I just noticed it's 1:15am, so good morning to you all!

Ok I wanna start jammin' too but I'm in a bit of a jam tryin to jtag an ex5000 pvr, i tried the leads on 3 diffo pc's and none of em will get me in the development pannel, so I put it down that me jtag lead must be shagged so a thought I'll bloody well get to the bottom of this so I got a eurovox max and connected this and it will talk to pc and allow me into the development pannel, so conclusion here is that me jtag leads are ok.

Am I using wrong leads for an ex5000 pvr cos when a looked at the tits on how to it shows a jtag lead with a battery on or a crocodile clip, mine ain't like this, so come on you lot and ask not what jambutty can do for you but what can you do for jambutty.

Stuff It!!!

I just had another bash at tryin to connect the pc to the box and they just ain't talkin to each other (this is about the 20oth try) so I hav decided am not gonna put it in the old boots dustbin who lives next door to me, it's havin the lump hammer on it instead, am gonna put it out of my misery.
Does anyone no how much a good sturdy lump hammer cost, I just looked on ebay but I think they are cloned. so ain't gettin one from there.

Gnite to yer all.
Love Jam xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx

ok found this
Powering the box off after going into Dev panel doesn't sound right, but it seems like your are nearly there.

Does your box have a silver heat sink on the main chip in the middle of the circuit board? (silver heat sink means a clone so I have read)

Anyhow try this:

JTAG tut I used from other forum modified for EX5000, if you get any errors (apart from those mentioned) power box off and start again.


Connect JTAG and Power up EuroVox

Start JKEYS

Click on "Development Panel"
Click OK to ingore the warning.

** SEE BELOW IF YOU GET AN ERROR HERE **

If all goes well you will get into the development panel.

In the user functions box:

Type in the address: 80000000 (eight and seven zeros)
Click on "Load to . . ."

Select the file "unlock_28FxxxC3.bin"

Click "Trigger User"

Close the current window.

Click on "Flash Programming"

Choose the model number as: DXD426RD (1 Chip-GLA)


In the section on the right:

Leave the box above set to "Full"

(Click "Read" and save file if you want to back up existing TSOP)

Click "Erase"

Select YES. This will take a minute to erase.

Click on "Program"

Select YES to "Program at address 0x7FE00000, size 0x200000?"

Choose your TSOP file- DXD426RD(1Chip-GLA) - Flash 1(28F160) - Full.bin
Sit and wait for OK to become active, then click it.

Close JKEYS and power the box down.

Disconnect your JTAG

Power the box on. If all has gone well then it should boot up ready for you to rescan for your channels.




*** If you get an error trying to get into the devleopment windows ****

Power the box down and run SkyMax v2.2
Select 2Mb Adr Flash
Power the box up
Press start.

This seems to reset the box when JKEYS cannot connect (DCU errors).

Close SkyMax and start JKEYS and try again.

Hey thanks Martin-f, I'll delay the execution now by a lump hammering on it.
snag now is i'm totaly nackkered and a bit dizzy so I'm gonna hit the hay and I'll give this a whirl tomorra and let yer know how I get on.
It's now got 2 choices it either talks to me on this info yer sent or it's havin the lump hammer if it won't talk to me.
Thanks Martin -F, Gnite.

Hi All,

Thanks for all help on this Jtag problem, I think the reason the pc and box aren't comunicating is because I am using the wrong Jtag Leads, I believe you need the leads with a croc clip on that you connect to a diode, so looks like this is why.
I am ordering the right Jtag leads later.
Will keep yer all posted on result when I get the jeads.

Puttin Lump hammer away for time being.
