Downloading RIFF Box software:

• Log in to RIFF Torrent tracker
  
• Download "Complete RIFF Box Setup xx.xx.xx" torrent file (xx.xx.xx may represent date of creation)
  
• Launch uTorrent client and open downloaded torrent file
  
• Set download location according to this manual
  
• Start downloading. (You can select only files which You need at the time)
  .
  

If You, for any reasons, can not use torrent client, You can still download files using "Check For Updates" function in JTAG Manager.
To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch JTAG Manager
  
• Go to Box Service TAB
  
• Click "Check For Updates" button
  
• New window will appear with large list of files
  
• Select files which You want to download first
  
• Start downloading
  

Most important files are "JTAG Manager", "Riff Box Firmware", and of course DLL file for current device/phone model You need.

Setting up RIFF Hardware and cables:

• Connect RIFF Box to Your PC USB Port
  
• Launch JTAG Manager software
  
• Update RIFF Box Firmware to latest version (Box Service TAB)
  

Now You have prepared RIFF Box and Software for work. You can now connect Your first phone. In case that You have purchased JTAG JIG-s set with Your box, things are pretty simple, connect 20 pin ribbon cable to JIG and do the Magic
In case that You don't have the JIG-s, You'll need to prepare cables first.


Basic RIFF Box set contains following:
.

• RIFF Box
  
• Two 20pin Ribbon cables
  
• Two small PCB-s with 20 pins on one side and 9 pins on other side
  .
  

To set up connection with phone, You'll need to do the following:
.

• Solder 20 pin ribbon cable to small PCB, starting from pin1 (Vcc) which is marked with red strip
  
• Solder 8 thin copper wires to other side of small PCB (Vcc pin is NOT required)
  

Now You can solder thin copper wires to JTAG points on Your device. For secure work, our recommendation is to tape both phone PCB and RIFF adaptor PCB to desk, so it will be fixed. This way, You can't damage phone , since unsecured PCB could be moved and prints damaged.

Now You are ready for Rock'n'Roll !
