grahamparker Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Thats why we bought the standalone tpx cloner. The internet decoding usually works a treat, but when it doesnt work it can be a nightmare. The new Silca GTI chips that can be used for tpx 1,2,3 and 4 are about to hit the market and may make a silca machine a better option in the long run. They will be a lot cheaper than the current mh heads/tpx chips and will be available in the next couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Same result when we try putting the code in manually, "unsuccessful". Begining to suspect faulty TPX2s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoemender1 Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 I had a few that would not copy to about 9 months ago, the supplier knew about the problem and replaced straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technical Tony original Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Please be aware if not using a TRS5000 - TPX2 chips can fail as other machines COPY JMA's software and is not the official software which JMA keep on improving with their Machines . EG Most machines are using the 1st ever version of JMAs software when these chips were made around 8 plus years ago, JMA have made Many Many update and improvements . JMA saw Silcas chips and this is part of an email I received . "Quote JMA " It is just a bit ironic that after selling for 8 years their electronic heads, now they have to copy to us the cloning method. It is clear that our solution was technologically more advanced and long-lived. This all said they do look interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technical Tony original Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Sorry forgot to add there are Copy TPX Chips now from China - so if your supplier is selling copies these may be an issue . We supply JMA Only - and check any returned chips to see why a fault may have occurred . Most times the chips are coded onto but the error happened in the coding process .

Flash Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Just received a new batch of TPX2s today, slightly different packaging, surprise surprise, no problems. Now my question is, is it possible to accidently damage the TPX2s by, say, storing to close to a computer or a magnetic field of some kind?.

grahamparker Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Magnetic field is almost certain to cause a problem. Computers shouldnt really be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Many thanks for the info Graham, I will look into where we store the chips to see if there is a problem there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technical Tony original Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Magnetic field is almost certain to cause a problem. Computers shouldnt really be. this is very True - TVs and PCs can affect the chips . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
