Funcard EEprom editor
The Funcard EEprom editor will only work with a Fun programmer.
For purpose of readability I will call the software "Funcard" from here on.
When you start Funcard, you get to see a program window which looks like this:
As you can see, the Fun programmer is connected to the parallel port instead of the serial port like all other programmers.
First you will need to tell the software which Flash file to load.
Please be aware that the software is sensitive to the correct order to load the files.
So always load the files in the same order in which they appear on your screen.
Next you choose the desired internal eeprom file.
Note!!!
If you are programming the so called 3-in-1 files, you can skip this step.
The 3-in-1 files don't use the internal eeprom file.
Then you select the external eeprom file. This is the file that contains the keys b.t.w.
Now click the Erase button a few times in order to be sure that the card is erased properly.
Then click on the Program button.
Now the software will ask if you want to verify while programming. Answer No.
If you answer Yes, you will get errors.
If you want to verify, do that separately after the programming has finished.
Now the process of programming starts.
The card is checked first, then programmed.
The key editor function:
This software allows you to maintain your keys (except for 3/4/5-in-1 files).
When you have loaded all 3 files (flash, internal- and external eeprom) you will see a second tab appear in your screen.
This tab is called "SECA keys" in this example, but if you load Viaccess files for instance, it will display a tab called "VIACCESS Keys".
Use the cut and paste method to update the keys you want, or type them in manually.
The method is similar to the procedure explained in the Picbined page, somewhere else in this chapter.
Note!!!
This function is not available in the case of 3/4/5-in-1 files.
And if you have a Auto Updating File set, you can double-click the provider name and enter all details, necessary for Auto Updating.
See the screen down here.
The SA (Shared Address) is part of the PPUA. In fact it's the first 3 bytes.
The CUSTWP (Customer Word Pointer) is the last byte of the PPUA.
The UA (Unique Address) is the serial number of your MOSC. It's a nice feature of the Fun Cards Auto Updating facilities that it will allow you to enter a individual UA for each provider.
The Provider Matrix is normaly referred to as the Package Bit Map (PBM).
Adding or deleting providers from the list is done via the "Edit SECA" (or "Edit VIACCESS") menu.
Then when you are done making changes to your file, you need to save the changes.
From the File menu, select Save Hex.
Select the external eeprom file to overwrite, or type a new name.
Then press the Save button.
That's it!
Good luck.
