Hey all

[lcdcaps1]

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

try using a USB stick to update as opposed to a network connection.

Hi

All

I have tried to update by USB and still get the same error

5-82 on vsp and vmpu



Please can someone send me the firmware so that I can program this myself or upload it

alternatively can I use the UART cable

Please can someone reply and assist me, I will be really grateful and appreciate it so much



Many Thanks

Kind Regards

How did you try and update it via usb if you don't have the firmware? Download it from Oink-yo

i downloaded the official firmware and put it on a USB drive but get an error
as mentioned
i read that i can flash the nor chip (q8040) using a chip programmer but i need a firmware dump from another board

I was also reading that this might be able to be fixed using UART but not sure how

please i need lots of help
thanks in advance

I take it you unzipped the 3 files and the 1 directory to the root of a clean FAT32 formatted usb stick.
Do you get:

Select the USB input source.
“Now Initializing...” appears on the AV receiver’s
display and then the name of the USB device is
displayed. It takes 20 to 30 seconds to recognize the
USB device.

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

you might want to check / ensure that those processor boards have the proper electrical conditions (voltage / ground) to allow for proper operation before going down the path of trying to "manually write" the firmware. It is a strong possibility that there is a issue at the board level.

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

I have not seen this error, if you look it up on the internet you will see others that have had it. It says it is a time out error.

Have you checked the update procedure that tells you to configure the amp in a certain way before updating the firmware?

Yes I did but can't see anything on the tv. Can't get the osd to show. So no way me to turn off things. I have done the rest key combination so I assume it's ok
If you know how to then please post
Thanks

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

I have been thinking it might be a voltage problem but i cant get to the regulators as they are on the bottom of the board.
can I do any tests from the top or can i flip the board over with something underneath and test and
in order to do this do all the cables need to be attached
Thanks so much
please can someone help who has worked on these boards
can someone tell me which regulators please
thanks so much

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

you probably need to look for the source of 3.3v or equivalent that is usually used for logic powering. You don't actually need the actual source (regulator or otherwise) at this point, just check test points on the various boards that show access or provide access to that type of powering so that you can check if it is there or not.

Re: Onkyo TX-NR616, constantly clicking, no display, no light/led

I have tested voltages on the following coils
L8932 - 1.3V
L8942 - 1.8V
L8952 - 3.3V
L8962 - 5.2V
