Repairing NO CA error


Requirements:
DreamUP_V1.3.3.11.exe available from http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de/en/downloads
A 9-way null modem cable or a 9-way to USB null modem cable

If you have a USB port on your PC or Laptop follow instructions for (B)
(A)

  • With 9-way to 9-way
    Attach the D type 9-way null modem cable to the back of the Dreambox
    Attach the other 9-way to the RS-232 port on the PC
(B)

  • With 9-way to USB
    Attach the Serial to USB cable to the other end.
    Plug the USB cable into your Laptop/PC
    Plug the null modem end into the Dreambox

Plug in an Ethernet cable into the router and the Dreambox. A network connection is much faster. It takes about 3 minutes compared to 90 minutes to flash.

On the PC and launch “DreamUP_V1.3.3.3.exe”
