SYSCON Tutorial

Required equipment
 • 1x USB to TTL v3.3 Serial Converter Cable
• 4x AWG 30 single core wire (keep length short)
• Soldering iron and solder
• Wire cutters
• Electrical tape (for insulation afterwards)

Required software (tested on Linux OS only)

• Python 2 +3 (python-serial, python-crypto and pycryptodome modules needed)

• Serial communication program to check output is happening – putty, minicom, screen
etc
• Syscon python communication script (used to action syscon commands) –
ps3_syscon_uart_script.py (python 2 only) Support CXR and CXRF syscons
• ps3_syscon_uart_script23.py (python 2,3) Supports SW syscons

Identify the serial connections

Go to the local folder called - PS3-Serial-Connection-Points

Connecting the serial connection

4x Jumper wires will be needed – 1x Rxd, 1x TxD, 1x Diag and 1x GND

These jumper leads will need to be cut and stripped on one end to solder onto the motherboards
points.

Motherboard pin USB TTL Cable pin Pin type

RxD TX Receive transmission
TxD RX Transmit transmission
GND Ground Ground connection
Diag (SW models don’t have Connect to GND to activate Diagnose mode – connects to a
DIAG mode) Ground point to set low
3.3v 3.3v – DO NOT CONNECT!
Setup software and usage

This guide will be using an Ubuntu OS to action the commands – Any OS can be used as it just
requires Python 2 or 3 and the supplied ‘Linux/ps3_syscon_uart_script.py’ and serial terminal
program to work.

Copy the supplied python script and open up a terminal:

(make sure your user has permissions to use “/dev/ttyUSB0” - add user to the dialout group)
Plug in your USB TTL cable and make sure its connected as described in the above table!
Do a dmesg command to verify what port its on
$# dmesg
Usually it will be the first ttyUSB0
$# ./ps3_syscon_uart_script.py
ps3_syscon_uart_script.py <serial port> <sc type ["CXR", "CXRF"]>

This help will show you the options. So to explain each option:
<serial port> = “/dev/ttyUSB0” - serial device to use to connect to
<sc type> = The SYSCON mode to use:
CXR (57600 baud rate) will be External command mode
CXRF (15200 baud rate) will be Internal command mode – activated by shorting the DIAG
jumper cable to the GND pin and clearing offset 0x3961 01 to 00 from FF

The following tables will show you what commands are available for each mode:
If the commands dont work they most likely need a patch to make them work!

Now that the commands are established lets start getting the PS3 into the correct mode:

External Command mode usage:

Note: Not all boards have external mode, the default mode is internal mode but patched to
prevent access from sony.

Without grounding the DIAG lead the default mode is ‘external mode’

1. Before switching on the PS3, make sure the USB TTL lead is connected – Rxd, Txd and
GND
2. Turn on the PS3, and open up a terminal shell
3. Execute the python script - ‘./ps3_syscon_uart_script.py /dev/ttyUSB0 CXR’
 4. Some commands can be used with requiring the higher privilege mode (auth) and a patched
syscon based on your model of board!
An error on the terminal ‘F000005’ will show saying that you have not authenticated
(decrypted master key and signed in).
5. To sign in you need to ‘auth’, then run those higher privilege commands, for example:
> AUTH
> Auth successful
If you get ‘Auth1 response invalid’, swap the RX and TX
wires!, if same check wiring and connection.
Make sure to exit script, switch off PS3 and back on again,
then load the script again!
6. Now you can run high level commands – EEP SET

To gain access to the internal commands you need to set offset

0x3961 01 value to 00 (originally FF – not set)

External commands are limited in use and will be using a couple of

limited commands to allow internal command mode to be activated.

Before attempting this please be aware that setting the offset

will temporarily prevent the PS3 from booting when turned off then
on again – as this invalidates the eeprom checksum for the syscon
This will be fixed in the later steps!

So to allow internal command we will need to set the offset:

1. On the terminal already loaded the python script and run

‘auth’
2. Check current offset value for 0x3961 01 – this should be
value ‘FF’
EEP GET 3961 01
00000000 FF
3. We need now change this value – EEP SET 3961 01 00

4. Verify that it is changed before switching to internal mode –

EEP GET 3961 01
00000000 00

Now you can switch off the PS3.

Now we ground the DIAG pin cable to a GND or the GND pin on the
usb cable
Internal Command mode usage:
(Not all revisions of boards have all of the commands)

Now that the diag pin is grounded we can turn the PS3 on.

PLEASE NOTE: The standby led will flash red repeatly and will not
turn on – This is normal as now we need to check the eeprom
checksum and fix it

1. Run the python command script -

‘./ps3_syscon_uart_script.py /dev/ttyUSB0 CXRF’
2. Authenticate to syscon (decrypt and gain high privilege)
> auth
Auth successful

Now check the eeprom checksum and what needs correction

> eepcsum
Addr:0x000032fe should be 0x528c
Addr:0x000034fe should be 0x7115
sum:0x0100
Addr:0x000039fe should be 0x0038
Addr:0x00003dfe should be 0x00ff
Addr:0x00003ffe should be 0x00ff

Highlighted in yellow is what needs to be fixed as its the correct

value that needs to be set

PLEASE NOTE: This is an example, you need to use the value

specified for your board that shows on the eepcsum result!

Another way to see the whole table is run:

> r 3900 100

r 3900 100
+0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +A +B +C +D +E +F
-----------------------------------------------
FF BF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
31 40 11 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF

FF FF FF 00 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF

FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 02

As you can see from this table F and E is misaligned (02) and
needs to be corrected to fix the checksum.

So as it is an endian byte we need to swap them around when fixing

this table.

Now we set the correct checksum using the write command (w)
(byte):

> w 39FE 38 00
Remember we are doing the swap as its an endian byte swap.

To validate the change:

> r 39fe 02
+0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +A +B +C +D +E +F
-----------------------------------------------
38 00

Run eepcsum and ‘r’ command to validate correct checksum:

> eepcsum
eepcsum
Addr:0x000032fe should be 0x528c
Addr:0x000034fe should be 0x7115
Addr:0x000039fe should be 0x0038
Addr:0x00003dfe should be 0x00ff
Addr:0x00003ffe should be 0x00ff

As you can see the sum value is missing meaning that the table is
correct
sum:0x0100

r 3900 100
+0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +A +B +C +D +E +F

FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 38

The PS3 will now be able to boot normally.

Note: if the value has an extended ffff, then just ignore that and
use the last 4 digit values – remember to swap them as endian.

Example below of a fantbl change ignoring the extra ffff

eepcsum
