This document describes the Installation procedure for `400plus ; if you need information on using the hack, please read the User Guide.

Before you begin

In order to install 400plus you are definitively going to need a CF card reader; it is simply not possible to install 400plus through a USB cord attached to your camera.

Preparing the camera

The following steps prepare your camera to execute 400plus each time it starts up; this procedure must be done only once per camera:

1. Use a fully charged battery.
2. Your camera must be running version 1.1.1 of Canon's official firmware; if yours has an older version, follow the update instructions at Canon Firmware Update.
3. Download the '400plus-testfir-1.bin.zip' from the latest release at the 400plus releases page, unpack it and copy the testfir.fir file into the root folder of your CF card, using the card reader.
4. Insert the CF into the camera and run the firmware update procedure using testfir.fir; the screen will go blank. Wait at least 2 minutes, then turn it off, and finally take battery out and back in.

Preparing each card

The following steps prepare a card to contain 400plus and be recognized by the camera; this procedure must be done once per card:

1. First step is to format the CF card, preferably using the camera, but you can format it on the PC, too.
2. Now the card must be made bootable, so the camera recognizes it; you need CF card reader and a Windows, Linux, or Mac computer. On a Mac, you can use the native method, or use Windows under Bootcamp/VMware Fusion, or use the Linux method instead.

Make card bootable

Windows XP

Use EOScard. You need to check both EOS_DEVELOP and BOOTDISK, and filesystem must be FAT (for cards smaller than 4GB) or FAT32 (for cards 4GB or larger); do not select any ML or CHDK at all. Ati radeon 4650 driver update.

Sometimes, EOScard will try to download and install some files from Magic Lantern, and leave the card unprepared if that fails; in this case, try to copy the files for 400plus to the card first (see 'Install 400plus into card below'), and then make it bootable using this procedure.

Windows 7 / 8 / 10

EOSCard

Try first the method described above for Windows XP; some users report that it just works for them. If you have problems, try right clicking the EOSCard.exe and click Compatibility tab, then check 'Run this program as administrator'.

CardTricks

If that fails, you can also try using CardTricks: Smlnj documentation.

1. Mark CF boot sector
2. Click Make Bootable

Virtual Machine

Some Windows 7 users reported that no method was working for them, however; in that case, install VirtualBox with a Linux LiveCD or WinXP running in it, and then use the appropriate method inside the VM (after attaching the card reader to the VM).

Mac

Use zeno's MacBoot automated tool (select 'Make DSLR Bootable').

Linux

Use the direct method (below) or use the method and files described here (use the second version).

Direct method

Use this method for Linux; Mac, and Windows can also use this method, with cygwin or dd.

• Find the device corresponding to your CF card (this command produces a list of devices, to see where your CF card is; easy way to find it is to match the size):
  • Linux:sudo fdisk -l
  • Mac (unmount the card from Disk Utility before):diskutil list
• FAT12 / FAT16 (CF cards up to 2GB) (replace sdX1 with the name of the device corresponding to the first partition of your CF device):

• FAT32 (CF cards 4GB or larger) (replace sdX1 with the name of the device corresponding to the first partition of your CF device):

Install 400plus into card

1. Download the latest official release, extract it, and copy the AUTOEXEC.BIN file to the root folder of the CF card.
2. Create a new 400PLUS folder on the card's root.
3. If you want support for additional (non-English) languages, also copy the LANGUAGES.INI file to the 400PLUS folder.
4. Insert the CF card back into the camera.. and you are done!

Testing 400plus

If the blue LED of your camera briefly lights up when the camera is turned on, the hack has been successfully loaded.

Updating 400plus

To update from a previous version of 400plus, just overwrite the AUTOEXEC.BIN and LANGUAGES.INI files in all your cards.

Removing 400plus

Permanently remove 400plus

The first step of the installation procedure cannot be undone (at least for now), and the camera will always try to execute 400plusif it is in the CF card; thus, formatting all your cards will remove 400plus for all practical purposes.

Temporarily disable 400plus

Power Off the camera, then press and hold the TRASH button. While holding the button, power on the camera, it should boot without 400plus now.
