    If your serial communication is down, this sounds like a bricked box..


    Look at this vu+ flash manual, until what step can you follow this ?


    FAQ_Vu_Util.rar


    Also, i know there are known problems with a capacitor on the board.

    Read this thread for more information:

    thanks capNcook, its done i introduced myself in the right section......


    branches thanks for your hels unfortunatly i cant send you private mess for the moment i need 10 posts i think so it ok if you want help me whith my vu

    Right lets start from the beginning and check a few things!


    Is this a Clone or Original? New out of box or old used?


    Did it come with the 9pin cable and rs232 board with 9 pin connectors either end?


    Did it have an image on it already if so what?


    If a clone do you have a sticker on it saying 'download software from here only' something like that?


    When you say you update the duo_cfe file....did it say 'reading usb' on Duo? it updates in seconds so may flash up quick?


    If its a clone have you tried putting an image pre-driver update


    Have a look here for info on which image is ok for clones

    thanks too mrgmx.... the guy toldme it was an original so i dont think so...
    in the box there was just a rs232 cable and no rs232 board
    there is a sticker "warnig dont update from other place......." i ont know if there was an image before the problem ...
    when i tried to update the duo_cfe file, i had any message on the screen of the vu, always this damned red light!!

    prob prob i have friend with same prob,go in this web and dowload secret ... is 3 folder and try it tu download to your vu if he take it i think is ok.


    bon voila tu vas sur ce site et tu recherche vuduo secret tu l installe 3 3 archive et apres une image pour ton vuduo du meme site bon courage.


    good loock

    i cant find vudosecret, is it the file named brick vu duo whith 2 videos and sofs like duoboot UpdateAllFlash or renew duo 020229 secupd11230??? if its this soft, i tried it and nothing happened

    somebody can tell me where i can find a rs232 board please? before to use a jta i would like to see if i can repair it whith a soft

    Be aware that cheap RS232 boards doesnt support the full rs232 spec..
    I had many problems because of that.


    After a long search earlier, these are perfect.. Fully Compliant and a breeze to install.

    you say that this cable can be used like a rs232 board



    Yeah, its not just a cable.. It has a microchip in the holder.


    Just plug it in, install the driver and you get a fully functional COM1 port.


    They are all the same, cable length and voltage output (not needed in most cases) differ.

    Yeah...


    The cheapest one without voltage output as i don't think it's required (someone plz confirm)
    is the USB-RS232-WE-1800-BT_0.0


    But you need to be sure that the voltage output isn't required.

    Quote from deenass

    so i can buy the shippest one?? :)
    sorry a little question please again
    rs232 ans null modem is the same thing??


    No.. The portname is RS232 or COM-port, or Serial port. (all the same)


    You can connect the RS232 through a "Serial" or "Nulmodem" cable. (wiring differ, plug is the same).


    Check your device specs to see what's needed.

    thanks a lot for your help, i just find this cable in my cupbord, i gonna try to find the drivers to install it and il tell you, to know what to do whith it , i it dont bother you

    ok i ve found this cable , install the drivers, its a HL 340, i tried to secupd111230 from vusecret so nothing happen grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
