DIT 1000 1b startup fault

[Burnt Chips]

Hi my trusted 1000 1b (2 chip simm) has done a iceland on me
freeze`s at the same checkpoint all the time AP:52,
Not a clue what this fault is,but hoping some1 on here might know.
Ive vainly attempted to reset netid with libby (but alas it pops-up-with as a comm failure screen ) when i attempt to get net id,and changing comm port from 1 to 4 and 3 comm leads later,it still wont connect.
So i assume that the AP:52 startup error is behind this ??? whatever it is.
If you know of this fault or faults please let me know before it hits the wheelie bin.

Hi

Sig/netid most likely netid. I take it you dont have a proggy so you are trying with libby. Sometimes you need to try a few times in libby or if you have proggy then set using funcard method.

Have you checked in EM if netid has changed and you sure sig is good.

I have a box that freezes on AP52 too. It's been like that for a year. It has never been a problem. I start the box in EM and go to page 13, Set the channel freq to 666.75 with the channel up&down keys and then , when the box has locked on ( The lock status changes from red to green) , do a warm restart on page 11. I don't know why this works but it does.

Good luck.

Ive just tried this "failed miserably" the channel up and down buttons do fargall.
It jumps from freq to freq on its own,all without a lockon
i cant manually do anything except move across from freq`s to 8hz,and back again in the page 13 menu,
Though on my 2000 box i can do as you say ???
also noticed in my EM page 1 the bottom line
CAN RECEIVE EMM`S states NO
,as my 2000 states YES

Hi

Have you checked your sig/snr levels should be green. Around 33/34 db.

These 1000 tuners have been failing of late and think that could be your problem. May say no T-stream in card status page when card is removed.
