Which serial format was it in? --- End quote --- 38K4 baud on a pin on the unused FFC connector - I've not had time yet to figure out all the pins, but I2C, CPU reset and power button are on there. |

Pins I know so far - all I've done so far is test for input/output using pullup/pulldown resistor 4 & 6 look good candidates for serial in. Logic levels are 3.3v Starting from end nearest to the unpopulated FFC connector 1 On/Off switch (to ground) 2 Power - Vbattery during run and charge - possibly via a FET switch as I didn't see continuity to bat terminal 3 Output 4 Input 5 Serial TXD 38K4 6 Input 7 0V 8 /Reset 9 Output 10 Input 11 Output 12 Input 13 Input 14 I2C SDA 15 I2C SCL 16 0V |

Someone emailed me last week with info on hacking the i series but was very wary of releasing - apparently there is a power-up key combination that gets you into a config screen, from which you can enable networking and do stuff like changing the resolution of i3 to i7, disabling the text overlay and reducing display noise - don't have it to hand ATM but I think it was something like holding play+down key at startup. |

Damn, this is getting intense, sub'd, thanks Mike ! :-+ |

Edit: wrote I4 accidentely - I now corrected it to I3. OHHHHH - if hacking an I3->I7 would be possible, I would purchase a I3 right away. I doubt that hacking could be so unbelievable easy but if Mike confirms during the weekend that there is a keyboard combination for enhancing resolution to 140x140 I am going to order one on monday. The decision would be the same for me as with the Rigol product: only because of the available hacks I purchased DS2072 & DSA815-TG & DG4062: I am willing to spend some money for decent functionality but price/functionality- relation has to be a really good one. |
