Beta 41CL --> Best CL UTILs to burn in NoVRAM 64? - Gene Wright - 06-29-2012 I will try not to ask tons of questions here, but since I google search for answers on this site, someone else may find the question helpful with an answer. :-) I have a first batch 41CL that did not have the CL UTILS module pre-installed. What version of the CL UTILS is best? Then, assuming that answer, I believe it changes if I am taking advantage of the Library 4 project?
So, which with and which without the Library 4? Thanks in advance.
Re: Beta 41CL --> Best CL UTILs to burn in NoVRAM 64? - Ángel Martin - 06-30-2012 Easy answers Gene:
1. Best version of CLUTLS w/out Library4: CLUTLS_2H All are V1 (a.k.a the Beta version), V2 and V3-compatible. I'll seriously recommend you use the POWERCL module, not only because it has more in it but also because the code is optimized and corrects a few glitches present int the others. Manuals are posted in Monte's CL site, in the "Other Docs" section.
Cheers, Re: [OT] Powering the 41CL ... - Matt Kernal - 06-30-2012 Sorry for changing the topic, but this thread has both of the Users, Gene and Angel, that have commented on different ways of powering the CL41. So here are my questions: Edited: 30 June 2012, 6:20 p.m.
Re: [OT] Powering the 41CL ... - Frido Bohn - 07-01-2012 Hi Matt,
I "sacrified" a memory module once to get external power for my HP41s. Re: [OT] Powering the 41CL ... - Ángel Martin - 07-01-2012 Matt, the USB power guru is Diego - I just use his solution. I can tell you however that it works flawlessly on Fullnuts, ergo on the CL as well, with or without batteries (rechargeables or not). If I´m correct the batteries are used as the primary source when they´re present with the USB power plugged. Even then there´s an important safety function performed, so you won´t run out of juice during a critical flash-write action. Also there is no battery charging capability, as it has a zener diode directing the current out and not into the batteries.
HTH, Re: [OT] Powering the 41CL ... - Matt Kernal - 07-01-2012 First of all, SORRY Diego, I had you in mind, when I addressed my question to Angel. No excuses <embarrassed> I MESSED UP. Thank you Angel. Thank you Frido for the link to your solution. I'm not sure how I missed that thread. Great information. Angel, thanks for pointing out that the external power is not a means of recharging the batteries, as the port's intended purpose is to supply power TO a module. Now I need to incorporate Monte's serial port connector into the same module housing as the power connection. I'll need to mount a female mini-USB port into the module, with Monte's connector next to it.
This a great forum! |
