Guest thundercat Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 hi just got hold of a second user dm sprite 1, 80gb 9 way machine and it didnt come with a user manual:( any body got a manual for one of these older sprites so i can wipe the disks and get it set up on a network regards dave
ian.cant Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 Im not too sure about about the model your quoting, i am thinking its the old Sprite Lite type machine or looks like one if you see what i mean. I have no manuals for a Sprite 1 but suspect it will be the same as a Sprite 2. Try here for the manual or here even.
Guest thundercat Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 the model number is ds01 dx09c and its not on the norbain or dm site:(
Brian c Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 You sure? Is it this one? Sprite_Lite_Installation_Manual_V2_0.pdf If you don't know......ask.
ian.cant Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 Thats not a DVR Brian thats just a MUX, but im pretty sure it looks like that. It was the first DVR DM produced, i only ever fitted one of them back in 2000/2001. Like i said im sure the manual for the Sprite 2 is virtually identical and that is available which is why i pointed you at Norbain or DM. Having said that if you can power it up its an easy menu to stumble through till you find the option to wipe the HDD. Failing that if your trade you can call Norbain and they will talk you through it im sure!

Guest thundercat Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 hi ian /brian yeh been through the menus the ds2 menu differs a bit but i can get through some of the ds1 menus eg date /time filters/copy etc just cannot find a system menu - which is where i guess the hd wipe is and the network set up - i dont see an installers menu at all i guess theres a method of a factory reset or similar.i key ve tried a number of different key presses but to no avail if i dont get anywhere i'l give dm a ring, as they are just up the road it does look similar to the sprite lite multiplexer
ian.cant Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 If you can access the user menu you can most likely access the installer menu. Ive found a picture of one, no help im sure but......... Just right now i cant think straight, no doubt tomorrow when im bored sitting in traffic it will come to me........ Longshot..... The button you use to access the menu .... press it and hold it for a few secs.
Garry Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Your right Ian we have one of theese units we use it as a back up for customers if you press and hold the MODE key you should access the menus.... Garry... You can lead a horse to water but you carnt climb a ladder with a bell in both hands.
