Prodigy Khub

[danbob1008]

Hello all

I am new here. I bought a Progidy Khub that isnt programmed, I am trying to program it with a USB to null and I am getting a message that I am not accessing any of the Comp port. Do I need to use only a null/null cable to program this or is there another activation file I can use.

Could someone please advise me?

Here is a guide for the New Kbox Prodigy and Khub

I found it on another site posted by SmokinChronic and thought it may help you

PROdigy and KHUB setup
Okay this guide is meant to address the setup of a KBox PROdigy along with the BLACK khub with the KHub logo on it. This guide is NOT applicable to the OLDER silver KHubs.

1. Connect the KBox to the coax, and power up;
2. Load the UNZIPPED bin 2.01, (or later as they are released), onto your USB;
3. Insert the USB into the port;
4. When the explorer screen appears use the remote arrow buttons to highlight the bin;
5. Press OK
6. When the bin is done loading the KBox will reboot itself;
7. Setup and scan your satellites in the menu installation dish settings menu;
8. Go to menu installation options and change Stand alone to network;
9. Set ALL AU in the same screen to OFF.
10. Plug the ethernet cable into the port on the khub;
11. Plug the KHub DIRECTLY into the KBox serial port, (NO cables needed);
12. Load the UNZIPPED khub.rom file, (found in the khub activation v2.0 in the files forum), onto your USB;
13. Insert the USB into the KBox, highlight the KHUB file on the screen;
14. Push OK;
15. When the file has loaded remove the USB from KBox;
16. Using the switch on the rear of the KBOX, reboot the KBox.

Tune to an ACTIVE NAG 3 channel, (CNN 200), is a safe one. Then wait a couple of minutes and TV should begin to play

For K1 Prodigy, connect your KHUB directly to the back of your receiver, otherwise make sure you are using a null-modem (ie. black) serial cable to connect from your receiver to your KHUB.

Can you buy a serial port cable with male and female ends as the new khub that is being sent out with the new prodigies does not seat very well ??
Does not seem all that secure, would be easier to run away from the unit in line with the cat 5. Am worried that the hub will eventually not even stay seated properly and will eventually cause problems. And if this is the case the hub should be designed to at least to fasten securely to unit, ie; same screws as on back of pc.
