I recently purchased a Captive Works CW 600S Premium box. I was wondering, whichupdater do I need for the download? Which download file is the good one for now, and, my husband is trying to make a null wire for the download, does anyone know which wired number goes to which? Or, which wire it is that we need? Thanks

U can use the straight cable and buy a cheap "null " adapter at radio shack..no need to make a new cable..

All the Dss sites have the latest bins, manuals , loaders, how to's, guides etc for that receiver..try using futurefta, hashhu, or al7bar or any other tye "RECOMMENDED" satellite sites thread!

Thanks LK and Bruce. My hubby is going to check to see if he has an adaptop like LK sugguested.
Hope this box will work eventually. Since we've had it, my hubby said it's been nothing but problems.
So many different loaders, and bins, and he's looked on the main captive works site and there was a whole bunch of ways to make a null adaptor.
Well, he will just have to keep trying.

OK, I spoke too soon. My hubby couldn't find one.
He wants to modify his adaptor to fix the box. All he wants to do is, he has cables, 9 pin cables. What are the pin numbers that need to be crossed so he can fix the box?
He knows he can go and buy the wires, but he wants to try to fix the box tonight. Seeing as it's 12:30am. Can anyone let us know which numbers of the wires cross with what? What color crosses with what?

Want to know what cable you need to flash that shiny,new receiver ? There are two types of cables used, and both look the same on the outside, but are wired differently internally. They are the straight DB9 RS232 female to female cable, and the Null 9 pin RS232 female to female cable. The straight DB9 cable has all pins connected the same at both ends(pin 1-1, 2-2,3-3,etc.). The Null cable(also known as a Null-Modem) has pins 2 and 3 crossed(pin 2-3, 3-2). You can use a straight DB9 cable to program receivers requiring a Null cable, by purchasing an inexpensive Null adapter to attach to one end of the straight DB9 cable. This allows one cable to be used for any receiver.

He crossed the 2 - 3, 3 - 2, 5 - 5, with no handshake, and it didn't work. THen went on to do the 7 - 8 - 1, 4 - 6 - 1, full hand shake and partial hand shake. Still with no luck. Any ideas?

Yeah, I guess we will have no choice on that. But my hubby said there was no communication at all. The box would not communicate with computer at all.

First get a adapter for your straight cable...then plug in and see what U have..U may have to use another serial comport..U have NO communication cause U have NO working correct cable..
