I find this report of 2302 to be quite odd, but looking at the firmware does show a place where it says DS2072 and then has 07, then 10, then 20, then 30. If you can assume that the 4 two byte sequences replace the 07 in the DS2072 then it is possible that this version of firmware which has been out for awhile does actually support a DS2302. The question is how to enable it. Could it be that some bits in the 3rd group are also additional option bits like what was found with the 3rd group for the ds1000z?
Could the firmware on niffler's have the same version, but actually be different than the firmware version we have all upgraded to? He said he did not have to upgrade it...
