power up problems
Hmmm, Problem is back again, now it starts, but uses ages from power on after full shutdown until it actually starts.
Tips anyone ?
Hi there,seen this posted on another forum and may help you wolfed.
Exactly as posted by Alian
This is a common error in Vu+ Boxes because of H/W design that case of memory fault.
I test this box in several metods and verifiy of serial prot / usb port and mail bord.
Because of cases listed below this box hangs in Core and bootloader, so all of ports such as USB & Serial
not act and you can not to flash the box.Red light Led & STARTING in panel.
My conclusion for case of this stuck is :
1- havey and complex IMAGEs.
2- havey or not compatible PLUGINs and SKINs.
3- USE of two tuners Simultaneously.
4- OVERHEATING of the box.
5- power SHOCKs.
No jtag or change of parts is needed in many cases.
I have tyied this ways and could flash boexes after dead/stuck in starting.
1- Try only with a usb stick maximum 4gb formated in fat32 & copy bootlader upgrade cfe 3.0 to it.
2- Disconnect Hard drive(power & Sata) and all of other peripherals such as usb pen drive.
3- Disconnect power socket of main board.
4- Rest the box for at least 3 hours.
5- Connect power socket of main board & power cable of the box.
6- Connect USB drive in front panel & power on.
7- If do not read usb turn off & try ofter 15 sec.
8- Repeat step 7 until reading usb.
I hope Vu+ engineers can verify and find "weak point" of this box that make problem.
