Can someone help me as I'm pulling my hair out trying to get my Toppy (5800) to connect to my Laptop (I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate). I have had it working in the past but it does not seem to be running when I'm trying to update the Channel logo this evening.

So far I've tried reinstalling Topfield Tools. Installed TopManager dut I still cannot see the Toppy through these tools. The strange thing is if I try to to re install MyStuff 6.4 using the autoinstller it detects the Toppy and communicates with it.

What do I do to resolve this issue and allow my self to update the Channel logos ?

Looking forward to your reply.

Many thanks ..

The easiest way will be to install TopManager, and use that to update your logo files. Alternatively, use Antares instead of Altair. By default, Altair uses a WinXP driver.

P.S. Assuming you have actually used the MyStuff installer to update, TopManager will help you update your forum signature too.

If you haven't, there are good reasons to update to 6.4, and that will update your logo files at the same time

Thanks for your help. I've got TopManager to now connect to Toppy all ok and as you hopefully can see I've updates my forum signature, The logos have now been updated all ok. Not too familier with Topmanager but it's reporting the following :

Found 92 TV and 24 Radio channels
<<< Duplicate channel Tx 22 LCN 791 Dave ja vu
<<< Duplicate channel Tx 25 LCN 170 ADULT Section
<<< Duplicate channel Tx 25 LCN 25 Dave ja vu
<<< Duplicate channel Tx 28 LCN 199 ADULT Section

Do I delete channel 25 ?

Might be worth posting your MyInfo.log. Which transmitter do you use?

You REALLY need to reduce the number of channels to around 40. Dave ja vu on LCN 791 should be deleted.

If you use Channel Organiser (In the Utilities folder on the Toppy) it can delete the extra channels easily and remember what you choose next time it needs to be done.

As you have already installed the PcControl tap, the easiest way to get rid of dross and duplicates channels is to use TopManager:-
1) PcControl| Show Menus
2) PcControl| "Channel Management" option.
3) Right Click in display and Select "All pay, porn, shopping etc"
4) Delete Channels

I think that will also sort out your duplicates. If not, scroll down and select 795 and Delete Channels

Then
5) Finalize

TopManager also updates the Channel Organiser files so it will remembr what you have deleted for next time (TM and/or CO).

I think you are receiving from CP but, if you use the "PcControl| Display| PcCInfo" option, it should show you which transmitter(s) match your current muxes.
