it will reboot if you turn it off and then on with switch on back but dont do it yet i would wait and keep getting info to be on the safe side i have never had this prob so i dont know what will happen when it reboots.

i dont think it will do it like that just wait awhile for more info. but if it reboots when you turn it off and on you will have the the picture back on your tv screen just dont be in a hurry and like sada said wait and get the factory bin to put in it if it does reboot

well something this good shouldn't die

pouring over this all evening.

as with the ird to fta work lately to me its the last area of the hobby I need to play with

I am finding the hobby really boring, its never about tv its about doing something new and learning.

and would love to work on the Viewsat & Pansat. for just shits and giggles.

when satfta left/was made to leave the hobby it left a rather large hole, then cc closed. so much is done closed source now. I don't think the advent of the fta has detremented the hobby I just think it hasn't been used to its full potentional. a box we can mess with and the legal providers can NOT write legally. so its only our code to deal with no updates. just wish more was done open source and publically exploiting the hardware having fun.

even the crappiest fta has a cpu and ram that far outruns a echostar Euro/ECM666

I don't own an fta so plan to mess with the echostar Euro/Ecm66 just as a winter play project it probably won't amount to much but atleast have fun trying.


now for an utter NEWBIE question


in page 2 of this thread

to quote O-PHD-2

Quote:
0x7FFFFFFE, the top of memory (because it is signed addressing) , the last few bytes of the Flash (or TSOP for those who didn't know). At that location there will be a jmp to some address close by (as it only allows for 2 bytes). This is common to see amongst all versions.

loc_7FFFFFE7:
7FFFFFE7 272F2F2F20202040 ldc #7FFF0000
7FFFFFEF F6 gcall
.
.
.
7FFFFFFE 6107 j loc_7FFFFFE7

Or something along that lines (as the board will really mess up my formatting).

now shockingly in the E666 bev Euro/Ecm666 tsop I have


Code:
7FFFFFFE 6107this using 7FF80000 as a base offset in hex workshop

now using these to documents

View/C4 Core Instruction Set Reference Manual pdf

View datasheet pdf

I don't see where the j routine is broken down from the 61 or 07 I am and I know this is a bad thing but ASSUMING the 61 is the jump and the 07 is its relative addressing

page 95 of the first pdf


Quote:
j n jump
Code: Function 0
Description: Unconditional relative jump. The destination of the jump is expressed as
a byte offset from the first byte after the current instruction. j 0 causes a breakpoint.
Definition:
if (n = 0)
Take a breakpoint trap
else
Iptr4 u next instruction + n
Areg4 u undefined
Breg4 u undefined
Creg4 u undefined
Error signals: j 0 can cause a breakpoint trap to be signalled.
Comments:
Primary instruction.
Instruction is a descheduling point.
Instruction is a timeslicing point.

so I understand its a primary instruction

now by the View pdf


Code:
Function
code Memory Mnemonic Processor Name Notes
code cycles
0 0X j 5 jump D,Tnow

Quote:
Notes
D Instruction can deschedule
T Instruction can timeslice

I am just trying to understand the nomenclature

am familar with asm and its one of my favourite languages
and have worked on the mostek the intel and motorola processors

and I figure no point going past the first instruction until I understand it. so I probably need to be hit with a clue x 4.

but any takers or pointers?

and yes my 7FFFFFE7 exactly matches what Dave2 posted but I figure as I stated above might as well start off on the right foot.

I love the winter gives time late nights for reading the old threads.

Thank you!! Oleg PHD@usa

07 | 7FFFFFFF 07 J FFFFFFE7 (7FFFFFE7)any hints truely appreciated so is it working in nibbles or bytes. just talking to myself laugh. will keep reading in the morning, anyway thought I'd post to keep the thread alive.
the 0 at 7FFFFFFF 07 I understand the 7 puzzles me but more when I wake.

My email is v_nanda70 and it is an hotmail account. I have 2 laoders. One is Loader 1.1 and other is Loader 2. I think in need to first upload Boot file which is .hex file and then factory bin. Am i making any sense. When you send me some files, could you also please send me clear instructions how to put the file into the box because i tried yesterday with loader and the progress bar did not move at all

ashi m

I used loader2 . . load your file into the loader.(VSU FAIL FIX) .have your ultra off...when you press the write to button on the loader and the window pops up on your pc screen turn your ultra on using the switch on the back..... it should start loading and when its done your display will be back. I had to rescan the channels on mine but it is working fine now.. my old bin was still intact.

Sent loader and fix to your email gspot
