Hello Techgamers, today i am posting a step by step DemoN Dual Nand installation.

Here we are going to talk about the DemoN chip.

Xecuter DemoN is the most advanced Xbox 360 NAND device ever created. It's not just a dual nand......

Giving you the ability to have dual NAND's is nothing new to the scene thanks to Team Cygnos and their dual NAND tool for older generation Phat JTAG models. However since the advent of the Reset Glitch Hack (RGH) scene, there has been a resurgence of homebrew activity on all the newer models of Xbox 360, and therefore there is not only a need for multiple NAND's, but also a variety of developer functions are now required so you can run your own custom kernels and linux apps on all the latest models including the new Xbox 360 S (or Slim as its known).

Picking up where Cygnos left off, Xecuter has taken the Dual NAND design and basically fixed every known bug and flaw that existed with the Cygnos, improved features, increased r/w speeds, redesigned the layout and install methods, added new developer functions and basically taken the dual NAND concept to the a whole new level.

Not only does the DemoN give the most stable dual NAND solution available, but it also has many dedicated development features that contribute to many different homebrew projects such as libxenon, dashlaunch, freestyledash, freeboot and many more. There are a massive 16 dedicated I/O's available for a multitude of features and add-ons and also an custom coded DLL library so that any developer can interface completely with the DemoN - you will see some really great things in the future [IMG]

The built in NAND R/W hardware is a stand out feature. Completely bypassing the need for any external device such as the Xecuter NAND-X or any other SPI tool, the DemoN has a USB port which offers a completely pass-thru solution giving you direct access to the Demon & Onboard NAND's - and with the turbo mode, giving you NAND r/w speed that have never been seen before !

Xecuter hasn't forgotten JTAG fans either, There are thousands upon thousands of users out there who run a perfectly functioning JTAG machine - many of them using the Xecuter JTAG QSB Install Kits that have become so popular over the last couple of years. Not only does the DemoN support all of the latest RGH devices such as the Xecuter CoolRunner - but they have also designed the DemoN to make sure that it doesn't affect any current JTAG installs - which is perfect for those who have the QSB kits installed and working perfectly - fitting the Demon does not require that they have to remove their functioning JTAG feature. Xecuter thinks of the customer experience first and foremost !

As always with Team Xecuter you can trust that they make the absolute best quality devices paying attention to the tiniest details and making sure that the end user is completely confident in a premium product backed by their famous warranty,

Here is a modification you can use for your DemoN chip.

Firstly you will need :-
1. Some wire/cable approx 15cms long (cut to size)
2. wire cutters
3. solder and soldering iron
4. any LED of your choice
5. Coolrunner CR3 Light.

There are various tutorials on this site that will enable you to use the LEDs already on the ROL however ive decided to use a seperate LED colour so the kids[IMG] dont get confused.

First off scrape away at the ROL board until you expose the copper of the board, you can use any part of the board being carefull not to break any traces.

Then tin the exposed area with some solder.


[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Once tinned connect your negative side of the LED to the ROL board.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]



Now solder your cable to the positive side of the LED


[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Tin the EN point of the CR3 Light and the connect the other end of the cable.


[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Provided you soldering is good, once you connect your slim up to the power supply the LED should now be lit indicating the demon nand is selected and when you press your demon button or sync button the led should go out indicating the stock nand is selected.

For coolrunner rev C users connect the cable to the EN pad from the demon add on

DemoN Phat Install (all models)



These are the QSB & Wire solder points for all Phat Models

There is also an optional SYNC Connection (Brown Wire) and Remote Power Connection (Orange Wire).

Note: Ignore the CoolRunner install wires - the pictures were taken with an RGH1 install by mistake - we know there is no PLL_BYPASS with RGH2

Xecuter CoolRunner - Phat Install (Wires)


LED INFO:

RED LED: Power
GREEN LED: Glitch Cycles (Should flash on/off every 5 seconds)

SWITCH INFO:

The NOR/PRG switch is designed only to be used when you are programming the CoolRunner while it is installed to the Xbox. It cuts off the power line only. If you need to program while it is installed then turn the power off to the Xbox and set the switch to PRG. You can now program using LPT or USB. When the CoolRunner is installed and running, the switch should be set to NOR.

Note: Many users have damaged their NAND-X by programming the CoolRunner while it's installed to the Xbox and the switch is set to NOR and/or the Xbox power is ON. We recommend that you program the CoolRunner while it is not installed to the Xbox just so that you are 100% safe. When programming the CoolRunner as a standalone unit it doesn't matter if the switch is set to PRG or NOR.

This is how the position of the CoolRunner looks like when installed to a phat.

Here are how the bottom wires are positioned. I used a hot glue gun to make a nice neat job.

UPDATE: Some consoles have trouble booting or boot fine but freeze frequently. here is the diagram (you can see the difference from the above picture):
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Troubleshooting

If you have a Big Block Jasper (256/512) and your boot times are very slow (Over 30 seconds) then we suggest you add a 68nF 100V Ceramic Capacitor across PLL_BYPASS (A) & GND like the following picture (thanks to SeanR28 for the pic - however I must suggest that the cap legs are cut as short as possible to the coolrunner - leaving them long like that will just attract noise and spoil the wave shape)

Another troubleshooting tip: Switch the CoolRunner to Slim and see if the times improved - this works for some

You can also try using double-shielded low interference 50ohm cable for your wiring.

Note: CPU_RST (D - BLUE) IS 50 CM LONG - THIS IS INTENTIONAL DO NOT CUT. SIMPLY LOOP THE WIRE LIKE SO:
