301.13 DAMD Single TSOP Build Needed

[AdolfHitler]

Equipment: 301.13 Single TSOP DAMD Build

I've played with this IRD for 4 or 5 days and have tried every build config out there, but I haven't tried an original DAMD virgin TSOP cause I'm having trouble finding one.
If you have the DAMD TSOP then please post it.

The Situation:

I get a signal but won't lock on the screen before the check switch where the indivdual birds and their transponder signals are viewable, then, when I run a check switch the IRD recognizes that I have a DP-Twin installed but says I have no signal. All my other IRDs work just fine.

Please help if you can.

What are you trying to run.. 102 - 101 - 10 to 102 or atmega

Atmega 128, it would be very interesting if this was a part of the problem, but considering that it registers the signal, I doubt it.
What else? Got my sights on the TSOP and I'm determined to find the DAMD unmodified.

their is one in the tsop files as I have used it to redo my 301-13. Good luck as the 301-13 are a bitch once they are out of wack.

[Littlebear151]

what is the build of the tsop that you are trying to use..you said you were looking for DAMD so what are you trying to use..

save a copy of what your trying to use and take the other copy and load it in Flashedit latest ver. open the advance setting and edit the build check the fixCRC it should turn green save file and try to load it to the IRD..

I have seen that build posted not sure if it was for atmega..

If the tsop you loaded was saved and was not using a DP dish your not going to see a signal until you run the check switch.. dish pro dishes use a tone type input into the LNB the older ones are not the same.. the IRD needs to see the switch before it will produce a signal

on most 301.13 the build only needs the first 3 letters to work right.. one other thing if you loaded a new tsop that had a different build you will need to load the matching eeprom or virgin one

just thinking out loud..

good luck

For a 301-013 single tsop ANY -013 single tsop build will work.....I have done hundreds, never a problem........My 102 modded -013 file is DAHA, I use a DAHD virgin eeprom and load EVERY -013 receiver with it, NEVER a problem. My atmega file is DANA, use a DAND virgin eeprom, NEVER a problem

skinerd,

I've tried every build known to man for the 301.13 single TSOP EXCEPT for its original virgin DAMD since I can't find it nor do I have a back up copy of it.
With most of the builds I've flashed, the IRD fires up just fine and operates otherwise normally, but, it won't lock onto any birds, though it registers the signals, it recognizes I have a DP-Twin installed, but the check switch fails.

I've also tried erasing sector SA-49 to obtain fresh firmware from the stream. This didn't work either even though I left the IRD in this state over night. After this, I tried SA-50 and left that over night, nothing.

This really sucks.

Need original DAMD build config. Please post if you have it.

eeprom issue, Load a virgin matching eeprom image to the 301 that matches the build you are loading to it. If you don't have one you can make it in flashedit.
Afetr the eeprom is reloaded rerun checkswitch, It'll be fine unless you have other issues like lnb voltage circuit or max chip bad.

There is nothing special about the DAMD build.

[skinerd]

I agree with Birdie, it's not a TSOP issue.

I load DAMA(D) receivers all the time, use DAHA(D) for 102 and DANA(D) for Atmega.

Be certain to make a virgin eeprom for the flash that you load, DON'T just rename one, make it with flashedit.

I ALWAYS use the tsop build first 3 letters, and the 4th is always D.
DAHA tsop DAHD eeprom etc.....
The highest -013 I have seen is DATA(D), DAHA(D) works fine, DANA(D) works fine...

Tear the sticker off the board, throw it away, for a 301-013 it is meaningless.

[AdolfHitler]

EEprom was flashed many times also along with the TSOPS.
This may not be the problem, though it is a suspect.
How about a u11 conexant chip problem, I know that using Jkeys and tricking it into thinking its a dual .13, you can modify u11, perhaps I need to reflash this chip.

[BirdieMod]

unless you have other issues like lnb voltage circuit or max chip bad

Meter the sat input jack for lnb voltage without the lnb connected, It should be bouncoing from 13 to about 18-19 as it tries changing tranponders to aqquire signal if the lnb power supply circuit is working properly.

[AdolfHitler]

I ruled this out when I saw the signal registering on the screen where you can flip through birds and transponders just before the check switch screen.
It even fluctuates accordingly, just as my working IRD's do, therefore the signal is making it to the TSOP processor.
What I'm thinking is I need to re-flash the U11 conexant chip, though this chip by looks of it is just the modem chip, since conexant does manufacture dial-up modem chips. Hmm....

I would not mess with conex chip, load a known good flash and try again, to verify receiver is not damaged. Even a virgin DAMA(D) or your save early version....something you know works in other receivers, or worked once in yours.

And so now I return to my original dillemma, I have no backup of this IRD, which is why I'm hunting a virgin DAMD build.

I've posted a request on many fourms and have been searching for one for a few days now, I hope it turns up somewhere.

I'll can send you one...PM me an e-mail addy. I have one DAMA(D) at P056, and several DALA(D) at P056.
