Ben's messing aroung with FreeEMS-Tuner code

[Fred]

whatever code you write for that will be useful to aaron for the interrogation stuff when he gets to it, so its not a waste if you were worried.

I still don't have any idea what this yellow button is supposed to do. So Fred, start talkin'.

[Fred]

When the serial monitor code is running on the hardware and my code is not, the serial communication protocol is totally different.

The idea is to not have to turn the key off to reset the device between states. And to not have to use a physical reset switch. Just to move the monitor switch and hit a button on the software.

I think I detailed the required commands in the interrogation thread and the mantis issue?

You need to start comms by sending a CR char and then turn on the COP monitor which will reset the device. Turning on the COP monitor is just a matter of writing a value to a register. The SM can write to any memory location so you can just do that and it will reset.

Sorted?

Fred.

Yellow button too complicated for me right now, passed on to Aaron.

Took on new task: http://freeems.aaronb.info/tracker/view.php?id=68

Tried to update my repo to the most recent version with "git merge origin/master" with minimal success.
Tried to update my repo to the most recent version with "git pull" with minimal success.

Started over with fresh clone (sort of).

Working on new feature right now and it's going well.

Clicked "fork" on gitHub and forked the project by accident. Can't figure out how to delete the fork or undo this insanity. =]

Remember not to push from the master branch

Get online Aaron. I'm in a little trouble. =P

Edit: Never mind, I've figured out how to delete this fork of mine.

Remember not to push from the master branch

Got it. Would I ever have occasion to even be on the master branch? I seem to work from mine only.

Ah, thought you might have since you used a fresh clone

ROFL, thanks for the morning laugh!

Thanks for helping me out too! :-)

95% finished with the new memory block request tab that Fred wanted. I've pushed the changes to the master repo, but I'm pretty sure it won't work correctly now that I've heard back from Fred.

Fred says:
there is a bit in the header that says "i'm for the protocol" or "i'm for the firmware"

I need to implement that before it's going to do anything useful I think. And then it still needs a tiny bit more work, but it's Thanksgiving today in the US and I won't get much done for a while.

[Fred]

Cheers Ben! :-)

I'm sure it will take Aaron about 30 seconds to adjust that bit to be correct. It just needs to be the opposite to the protocol type ones that already exist in there.

I reckon even I could hack that in, I may try this evening if Aaron doesn't hook me up :-)

Thanks again,

Fred.
