Quickboards/4-wire test boards are going down everywhere!
magic...@magicboxes.com
Awareness" section ***
August 14,1998.
4-wire test chips for dpbb/cft descramblers are failing everywhere as cable
companies have become savvy to the default DSN used by T2s,RFTs, and the
QuickBOard/4-wire test chip.
We said that would be happening to T2 customers but it seems to be taking
out alot of DPBBs/CFTs with the 4-wire test chip. The end-users are getting
messages like "Your converter is disconnected" to Illegal Site code.
Magicboxes HAS NEVER developed a test chip which changes the DSN inside the
box to E0 BF 7F 3E. The E0 BF 7F 3E has caused customer problems throughout
the world.
To Dealers: As you spend upwards of $100US/CFT it would be a real serious
(and expensive problem) to cover returns due to the Quickboard/4-wire test
chip. We have a series of testchips which do not change the DSN and are very
system SAVVY. If you are looking for a solution to your area or a global chip
then contact us. We have developed special testchips for the UK, Ireland,
Hong Kong, and many high-secure areas.
We currently offer several different models:
3-wire for non CFT2200/ICFT2100 areas $8US ea/Qty 10
Solves: Channel map problems (snow holes from 53-61), A/B switch, instant
access
CFT2200 test board - NO SERIAL NUMBER ENTRY! Only type on the planet.
Supports areas WITHOUT changing DSN to E0 BF 7F 3E. DSNs are chosen after
"looking" at the areas packets. Box initialization is instant and area
information is collected over a couple of minutes rendering your box
"borrowing" a site code and happy DSN. This test board is unquestionally the
most powerful test board of its kind utilizing DUAL MICROPROCESSORS. These
modules work everywhere. Period. Check our website August 20,1998 for
complete specs. Please e-mail for samples. This board is a true "Data
Bridge".

*** THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT FROM MAGICBOXES ***
Jim, Since you are so fond of trying to bullshit people with technicalities :-
A 4 wire testchip is one in which the cable companies data stream is allowed
to reach the box via going through the testchip. This is used for multimode
commands / channel names / time etc. In order to stop the cable company
shutting down the box like any normal box, the testchip MUST FILTER THE DATA
TO REMOVE SHUTDOWN COMMANDS. THEREFORE IT IS IRRELEVANT WHICH DSN IS USED BY
THE TESTCHIP AS IT SIMPLY REMOVES ALL COMMANDS TO IT. Secondly WRT
"MAGICBOXES HAS NEVER DEVELOPED A TESTCHIP THAT CHANGES YOUR DSN TO E0 BF 7F
3E" If you change the DSN AT ALL YOU REQUIRE THE SERIAL NUMBER - THIS IS EVEN
STATED IN YOUR OWN LITERATURE (and is one of the few things correct). Yet you
continuosly state "NEVER USE A DEVICE THAT CHANGES YOUR DSN/NEVER ENTER A
SERIAL NUMBER". So what you are saying is your own products - if they exist -
actually start changing DSN's inside the boxes !

Just how incapable are your programmers if they can't program a simple filter
into a PIC ! Dual Microprocessors ??? next you'll be claiming twin 1Ghz
Pentium Zeon's.
Yet another lie. IF YOU CHANGE THE DSN YOU MUST USE THE SERIAL NUMBER. END OF
STORY. TO CHANGE THE SITECODE ALSO REQUIRES THE SERIAL NUMBER.
Every time you attempt this bullshit in future, I will expose your technical
lies.

Correct, it uses the default Jerrold DSN. The 4-wire boards I have seen allow
a hell of lot more commands through than that!
Static multi-mode areas DON'T work at ALL!
THEREFORE IT IS IRRELEVANT WHICH DSN IS USED BY

No one of MANY things are correct. And, yes IF YOU DO OWN YOUR BOX THEN
PLEASE USE A SERIAL NUMBER AND MAKE IT WORK AS THE CABLE COMPANY DOESN'T HAVE
ACCESS TO IT.
People like you selling those fricking cubes T2,RFT changing the DSN and
promising no problems is the bullshit I am tired of.
Yet you

We sure do, but NOT IN SOMEONES RENTAL LIKE THE CUBES OUT THERE!
By the way, on our 2200 chip version we change the DSN without ENTERING THE
SERIAL NUMBER! Plug and play!

What error?????
I dumped that data DIRECT from a T2, no filtering, nothing... I didn't change
the commands. I don;t think you like the data coming out of the T2 to become
public knowledge!
Well, I'll call your bluff. Check my website out next week. You will see a
"T2.obj" file on it, and that will contain SOURCE CODE to the T2.
Anyone want to start CORRECTING the T2 code and start knocking them out?

Further, from the 4-wire boards I have seen either you have to cut the battery
(BAD - JUST LOST ALL THE OTHER FREQUENCIES THAT BOX USE TO SUPPORT)
or
(WAIT A LONG TIME FOR THE BOX TO CYCLE THROUGH CLEAR ADDRESS COMMANDS
(1.5hrs).
Ours takes a total of a few seconds for setup. And NO CUT BATTERY.

Nope, we have. We put out a cube this spring WHEN EVERY CUBE/TEST CHIP
DEVELOPER SAID "Its IMPOSSIBLE TO ADDRESS A 2200 WITHOUT A SERIAL NUMBER"
WE did it!
Were the only ones who did it!
The shit storm was flying for ther guys who were flogging the crap out there.
If I designed THE ONLY BOX to address a 2200 without a serial number then I am
sure you can see that design a test chip is second nature.
BULLSHIT. Site code changes do not need a serial number.
If thats the case then your 4-wire test mod can't even map the site code can
it????????

My chips do it the right way, for $8. in small quantities.
What is your test chip selling for???
Do you return all lost revenues to a dealer who uses your test chip in good
faith?
nospam
And exactly how would you know this unless you are a cable operated
sting?
You say you have NEVER sold a product susceptible to this problem,
then how else would you know "dpbb/cft descramblers are failing
everywhere"?
Ah, I see. All these people (you don't sell to) who's descramblers
have stopped working are calling you (where's that again?) and telling
you this?
I bet you used to be a used car salesman before this, huh? (Did you
throw away those white belts and shoes though?)

Then you have very badly screwed the design of your testchip, my testchips
work perfectly in static multimode areas by configuring the box from an
intercepted boot sequence.

It is quite incredible that you postulate so often on how shit everyone elses
products are, yet MY PRODUCTS ACTUALLY WORK IN AN ALMOST IDENTICAL WAY TO THE
VAPOURWARE THAT YOU ADVERTISE.
BUT the primary difference being :
Unlike yourself I HAVE MY DESIGNS FOR BOTH CUBES AND TESTCHIPS IN REAL LIFE
ACTUAL USE BY HAPPY CUSTOMERS. AND I CAN DELIVER SAMPLES AND PRODUCTION
QUANTITIES NOW AS IN TODAY !

Well done :) You've found the FD 49 load default logical address command, you
must be very proud. EXCEPT that if you try this on a CFT 2100 / 22xx you will
leave the box in ERROR E5 UNTIL you hit it with the SERIAL NUMBER in a FD 5F
load LA from serial number command.

You PRICK you know damn well that the PPV activation commands :-
08 FD B0 LA LA LA LA
should read 09 FD B0 E8 LA LA LA LA
and 09 FD B1 E9 LA LA LA LA
etc. up to 09 FD BF F7 LA LA LA LA
You have made it obvious that you have tampered with the commands by CHANGING
THE LENGTH BYTE TO 08 from 09. There is no way by accident that this could
have happened.
Maybe someone else can verify this as I have never seen a T2. BUT THE COMMANDS
AS LISTED CERTAINLY WILL * NOT * ACTIVATE A CFT21/2200.

I couldn't give a sh*t about the T2! I have never even seen a T2, and don't
ever want to. I agree with you that they are an extremely bad design - That's
why I developed my own systems from scratch.

You can't even get the terminology right can you !
You call what is already on your website the "FULL SOURCE CODE" to the T2,
what you actually mean is that it is the output command stream.
The source code is the PROGRAM that generates that output stream.

So what are you doing extracting the serial number from the CFT's ram, or
reading it from the remote control perhaps ?
YOU HAVE TO GET THE SERIAL NUMBER IN SOME FORM IN ORDER TO OPERATE YOUR
TESTCHIP IN THE CLAIMED MANNER OF DSN "HOPPING".

YES - If you designed a non SN needing cube then developing the testchip would
be easy. HOWEVER very few people in these newsgroups actually believe that you
have designed / manafactured / sold ANYTHING.
Lets end all these lies and accusations with some solid evidence.
Send me a sample of ANY of your products. I will take a look at it and report
back with an honest technical review. If your products exist I will gladly
apologise for accusing you of bullshitting, and will happily testify to anyone
else that you do exist for real.
Failing that let me order 250 of your UK testchips at the $8 price. I will
sell them off in one's to anybody interested on these newsgroups at the cost
price.
Now there is an offer you cannot refuse. Either deliver me the testchips or
shutup and go away !
YOU WILL HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR NOT SELLING THE TESTCHIPS TO ME. IF YOU
CANNOT DELIVER THE CHIPS THEN I WILL HAVE PROVED YOU TO BE THE FRAUD WE ALL
THINK YOU ARE.
You will also be shit out of luck if you think you are going to give my name
to authorities if I buy these chips off you, 1) I don't have cable tv
installed in my house, 2) I am outside the legal juristiction of the USA. 3)
I require a signed contract that my customers will not use products I sell
for illegal purposes.
Here is my phone number +44 7010 700949 give me a call to arrange delivery.
You might get a few more orders if you tried giving your phone number away.
TOGETHER WITH THE FACT THAT YOU COULD THEN OFFER TECHNICAL SUPPORT, but I
don't suppose your great expertise covers evading fraud charges that your
clients are probably facing.

Go on then teach me something how do you set the site code without the serial
number, the only method I know of is to set it when you set the DSN in FD 5F
commands ?
prove you know another method, I'll test it, If it works then I'll acknowledge
you with full credit for it.
You can't claim it is a critical trade secret as it is not needed for ANY
thing in a decently programmed testchip or cube.

I charge $2500 for the full source code to the ONLY automapping chip
available.
As compared to your testchips $8 for a long summer break in Club Fed.

I've never had this problem my test chips / cubes NEVER have had a problem
once they were delivered to the customers in production versions. And NOBODY
has asked for their money back.
Like all developments there were a few bugs to start with but they were
reported located and fixed before ANY release versions were sold to the
public.
expectantly awaiting your response,

first. The chip authorizes, accepts input, reads the site code, programs the
unit and lets info in for the Static Multimode changes, and blocks the
shutdown commands. Works very very well.
