[Cosmicrain]

Γεια σας!
Προσφατος επικοινωνισα με την αντιπροσωπεια της Onkyo για αναβάθμιση στον ενισχυτή μου.
Η ευγενέστατη κοπελιτσα μου ειπε πολύ απλα ότι λογο μεγαλου φορτου εργασιας ότι θα παρει 10-15 μερες!
Σκεπτόμενος λοιπον να αποφύγω αυτή την βαβούρα + μεταφορά του Heavy Baby μου θελω να δω ένα υπαρχει τροπος να την κανω μονος μου!

Το μοντελο του είναι TX-SR876!
Ο ενισχυτής μου δεν εχει καποια θυρα ethernet η USB που θα μπορούσε να γινεί το update!Εχει μονο το κλασικο RS-232 aka COM port!!
Οποτε ζηταω τα φωτα σας τι θα χρειαστώ από Software k Hardware και φυσικα το καινουργιο firmware.

Ευχαριστω!

How to upgrade the firmware
makelegs was kind enough to provide his instructions which I used as a base and thanks to gurkey and ibmack for taking a second look at them as well as markymiles and JonStatt.
Please note that you are doing this on your own and will probably void warranty and don't blame anyone else than yourself it you screw it up or if it doesn't work even if you followed the instructions.
The firmware should only upgraded by the official OnkyoService Point so you are on your own.
What is described below is just an example of how "easy" it can be if you decide to do it.
If anything is missing or is incorrect or if something needs more explaination, let me know and I will update the instructions!
All about the firmware can be read here: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1016297
and post any questions about the upgrade process there.

Here are the steps to complete the 876 FW update:

1) Plug in USB end of RS-232 adapterinto computer and load any drivers for it.

2) Go to "Ports" in Device manager, and set adapter to COM-1
(Right-click on the device->Properties->Port Settings Tab->Advanced)

You may have com port 1 already in use. You would then need to assign the adapter to a different com port.
If this is the case you will also need to change the update software to the same port BEFORE clicking
the main update button, step 7. The com ports available on the update software are 1-3.

3) Turn off the power of the receiver (*)

4) Connect db9 RS-232 cable to both the USB adapter and the 876, make sure they are securly fastened.

5) Hold "Enter" behind the front flap while powering the receiver back on (*).
"MainUpdateMode" appears on the 876 screen.

6) Run "UPDATE.EXE" on the computer
If it complains about drivers, unpack the Setup_Adapater-package and run the setup.exe contained therein.
It should list something like ths:
Firmware Read Result ********************************
001. F000000A / FF000000
002. F000000A / 01000000
003. F000000A / 02000000
004. F000000A / 03000000
***************************************************
If not, you are in the wrong directory.

7) Click on the "Main Update" button on the PC screen .... and it's off and running.
(If you get ""Searching F/W..." on the receiver, you could be in the wrong directory at step 6).
(If you get something like "Run-time error '8002'" and "Invalid port number", you have no connection to your receiver. It is either your ports that are not configured correctly or the cable itself)

On the front panel display, it will begin the "erase" countdown and then start the "write" process.
Process includes 25,339 units, and counts rapidly up from 1. It takes 16 minutes.
Note: The update hangs/waits a few secs at 24,933 while the front panel displays "write FFBB00"
but it soon finishes and the display says "Complete" and goes into normal standby.

(*) Either disconnect/connect the power cord of the receiver or press the main power switch behind the front flap if you have a non American model to power off/on.
