firmware 110 problems SOLVED !!

[jan]

Hi forum ,

I can not change the levels of v/div and sec/div any more after flashing to version 110 .

At the first boot i could change the values down , but not up anymore .

At version 64 the unit works fine...........

version i have is ;
main pcb 00E
Analog pcb 00E

are there any more points to watch/modify ??
will this update work with these older boards ??


so , back to 064 for me right now.

regards,


jan

Please send the product ID (it is a 8-character string that can be found at a sticker on PCB or at the second powerup screen) of your scope to jyetech@163.com to request an activation code. Activation is required for earlier shipped units to upgrade to the new firmware.

To enter activation code:

1 ) Boot the scope to its normal working state (where grid is displayed).
2 ) Simultaneously press three buttons SEC/DIV, TRIGGER, and ADJ.
3 ) Follow screen instructions to enter activation code.

And working !!

Thanks .

Will I have to do this to upgrade from v54 to v64 or v110 on the old boards? I don't remember seeing anything posted on this before.

[jan]

only when you upgrade to 110 ,
and when you get this message at power up .

110 has some nice new features too .

Is there any reason I shouldn't get the activation code now, and then do the update later?

How is everyone doing with v110? Any problems?

[jan]

new functions in 110 ;

v/div + adj = sending data
v/div + ok =calibration

Jan, do you have a picture showing what your added J5 and JP1/2 connectors look like on the inside of the case? I'm interested in how you did that.

[jan]

Alphaseek ,

Unfortunately no pictures , but

J5 is very straightforward , simply solder a right-angle 2,54 pinheader to it .
for the jumpers J1 / J2 i glued a straight 2.54 pin-header on a little piece of 1mm plastic and that on the main-pcb so both the headers are more or less on the same height .
i used wirewrap wire to solder the pads to the header.

ther is also the possibility to place the uart inside of the oscilloscope , hotmelt glue is the best option to do that ( see other posts about this subject ).

I recently did a did a project describing how to embed a CP2102 module in a TI MSP430 project. I think that might work here as well. The modules are very small, and have micro-usb sockets on them. My thought is that the module GND, TX and RX pins would connect to J5, and the module 3.3V power output would be connected to JP1 (but not to the scope 3.3V rail). That would bring JP1 high when the USB cable is connected, and put the processor into flashing mode.

That leaves JP2. From my reading of the ST datasheet and AN2606, JP2 could actually be tied low permanently, and the processor would boot normally so long as BOOT0 (JP1) is still low. In other words, the state of BOOT1 matters only when BOOT0 is high. Has anyone tried leaving JP2 bridged?

Then it would be a question of mounting the module securely so that the USB socket is accessible Not sure how you would do that.
