A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

The upgrade used to be on the Hotbird satellite, and downloading was achieved by disconnecting the power and reconnection at the same time as pressing the front panel power button. I am not sure if the firmware is still available on satellite.

Can't do any upgrades while stuck on Lo3. A boot flash is required (not trivial - an RJ45 to RS232 interface will be needed, plus a bootloader).

I made my own interface, but you can buy one from _http://www.electronicasuiza.com and go to Jtag/Seasons Interface section.

Bootloaders and other Simba files can be found here -

I haven't done anything with a Simba for years, but may still have some info somewhere if you get stuck.
