    Hmm, okay so it works, but no great therefore I have the idea that someone have the security chip upgraded to v3 which not works.
    I have tried that, the security chip accept the v3 upgrade but won't work, it stays on starting.
    Best is to upgraded it again to v2, but I do not have the files at this moment.
    I can give them Friday evening or Saturday.

    Here are the update files for the vu+ duo Ferrari security chip v2
    The chip looks as this picture.
    Snap-vuduo-v2-ferrari-securitychip.jpg

    Steps,
    1. Connect the serial cable with adapter.
    2. Run on the pc the file reneweas.exe
    3. In the program, click open file and choose the duo_scret
    4. Power On the vuduo box, if all is fine you will see the upload bar action.
    Wait until it's finished, after that turn Off and On the vu box and see if it gives results.

    If it stays on Starting, upload an Vu Duo ferrari v2 image file.
    And check the security chip if it's gives the correct output, +UPDS-Great +UPDF-Great, only than it's a working V2 security chip, without the Great it has the V3 security chip data on it and that will not work with a V2 chip.
    You know how to preform it.

    The cable you have made to access the security chip should work for this job.
    Be sure that you use the correct comport, normally com1, be also sure that this comport is free and works.
    Sometimes it also help if you disable/enable the comport in the computer hardware list.
    Or after a reboot with the computer and as first task this job.

    That's great, basically most of the image files for the vu+ duo ferrari v2 are fine, but at this moment I use this image file for testing the ferrari v2 boxes which is the openpli-enigma2-4-vuduo_usb_GStreamer_1.7.2_JapharTeam-MastaG_Ferrari_V2.
    However strangely, at this moment I could not find the link to it at the japhar.com site.

    Great, and thanks for the message.
    But keep in mind, do never a online upgrade with the box, you may end up with a red led box.
    Always upload a newer image file on the normal way.
