PlayStation 2 identification tool

I'm thinking the problem is something on TEST models only as I've done the same thing to both my SCPH-18000 & SCPH-39001, no error at all.
I have some more PS2 that I'll try using this one, mostly SCPH-30001 units. Also do you have a link for the older version as I only see the newer one.

I hate to open this unit.... but if you think it will help, then I'll be happy.

Edit: DTL-H50001 mainboard model is GH-023

 

Wait, you opened it? D:
I meant that it's alright if you cannot open it because it's sealed, it's just that the data isn't going to be of much use without the model. @_@
Oh well, thank you for your sacrifice, for science.

It's possible. But seeing that the console is basically an early SCPH-50000 unit, it doesn't seem like a problem with the TEST unit, but with the tool itself.

As for getting the older version, please check your PM inbox later.

 

All DTL hardware do have a different DVP chip (in the 50k case, CXD3098Q-1) than normal retails.

 

I opened up a PS2 slim yesterday and on the motherboard it said that it was a GH-032-32, but when I ran the program, it said that it was a GH-041.
Is this normal ?

 

I see that you are using an old version of PS2Ident. Please upgrade to the new version and update your model database.

If the latest version of PS2Ident (with the most updated model database) still fails to correctly identify your console main board model, please submit your model's data to me.

If you have to submit your model data, please refer to the model data submission guidelines (as written in the first post of this thread).

 

At whom runs the latest version program on the DESR? At me not work. When trying create to dump system ROM the message "please wait...". I tried different usb device - the result is the same. On usb device created folder "DESR-5000_xxxxxxx", there creates a file "DESR-5000_xxxxxxx_BOOT_ROM.bin" (0 bytes), and nothing else. The old version of the program worked perfectly ...

 

PS2Ident v0.820 changelog:

1. Rewrote the GUI to be easier to add/remove/change the displayed information.
2. Bugfix: corrected a case of NULL pointer dereferencing.
3. Added TOOL AIF controller detection.
4. Changed SYSMAN ROM-region probing to check for romx:ROMDIR, instead of poking the ROM regions directly (Just in case a bus error results).
5. Bugfix: the SPEED EEPROM reading function will be NULL (and dereferenced) when a network adaptor is not connected.
6. Added chassis identification.
7. RAM will now be reported in bytes, as the IOP side is limited in software to a maximum of (8MB-256) bytes (which will be incorrectly rounded-down to 7MB).
8. Added timeout code around sceCdAltMV, in case the console doesn't support sceCdMV (Like certain DEX models).
9. Moved rom1 mirror checking (which prevents false-detections of rom2) into SYSMAN for efficiency.
10. Added support for detecting the TOOL MRP board (Typically a MPU-4.0 board).
11. Added MODEL, console MODEL, EMCS ID and M RENEWAL DATE fields.
12. Changed ROM dumping to be asynchronous for performance.
13. Changed MECHACON names to include the firmware version.
14. Changed model identification criteria to include the MODEL, console MODEL, EMCS IDs and M RENEWAL DATE.

The new version works fine for retail PlayStation 2 and DESR (I tested for SCPH-10000, SCPH-39008,DESR-5000). Thank you, sp193.

 

v0.821 has been released:

1. Updated to support the PS2SDK updates.
2. Changed all mentions of the "SSBUSC" to "SSBUS I/F". The SSBUSC is actually the IOP itself, while this chip is actually just the SSBUS InterFace Controller.
3. Corrected errata in README file

Please refer to the first post for downloads/links.

 

PS2Ident v0.822 released!

Changelog:

1. Updated UI to be usable for other projects.
2. Rewrote UI to no longer use gsKit.
3. Changed fonts to the Google Noto fonts.
4. Added ADD0x010 field.
5. Cleaned up code.

As of now, only the English, German and Spanish languages are available because the strings and labels were changed.
The automatic mechanism for splitting long lines on the screen was removed, so the strings have to be formatted to break manually. Otherwise, they will be cut off.
If you are able to and willing to, please contribute new translations.
For more information, refer to: http://ichiba.geocities.jp/ysai187/PS2/LanguageSupport.htm

Note: this is a tentative release. A new field was added, but I am still awaiting updates from some contributors.
As a result, some of the entries within the model database may lack values for the ADD0x010 field.

EDIT 2016/01/05: There was a problem with the program, making it unable to boot on most consoles (boot path hardcoded). Please download the new version.

EDIT 2016/01/06: Fixed language support. Please download the new version.

EDIT 2016/01/09: Select button is now CROSS for non-Japanese regions, increased PAL screen X-offset by 4, re-added quit confirmation and added Spanish localization

I have also taken this opportunity to make some corrections to the database file. Thanks to Vigilante:

1. SCPH-90010 BOOT ROM checksum corrected.
2. SCPH-90004 BOOT ROM checksum corrected.
3. SCPH-75004 (model 0x20d443) BOOT ROM checksum corrected.
4. DTL-H50002 BOOT ROM checksum corrected.

 

great job SP193
