Here is the asm files for now. I will add the schematics, eagle files, and VC++ files when I find them. Also, this is actually FLEX with the RS232 part commented out.

I apologize. I have been having trouble finding the original files. I had to rewrite what I did have and then compile each to get rid of the errors. What is included in the above link is the asm files for the Final Rapidfire and the Flex asm files. I have also included the Eagle files. What I am now (permanently) missing is the VB files for the utility. I have searched old HDD, old burned backup disks, and even scoured my thumbdrives looking for the files with no luck. I am going to call the VB files a loss at this point. Besides, RS232 was such a hastle especially when I plan to release everything about the USB stuff (so much nicer and easier).

You are the man! I cant wait to make this! Thanks Hazer

Hazer, thanks so much for this. I have been working on writing code like this for a long time, as some people on here know, but had some problems that I haven't had time to work around. I look forward to working with this code, and figuring out where mine went wrong. I might also try to add some mode saving capability to the programming application.

Edit: I just looked at the source code. LMAO!! Did you get a little frustrated when working with the LED code? I can tell from the labels. When I was trying to do the same LED code in my program, I was having an issue with both LEDs lighting up when only one should have been, were you having this problem when you first created the code?

Also, flex uses a different LED scheme than this does, correct? You used two LEDs on a single pin with the Final Rapidfire so there is room for the send and receive pins.

you can call me a dumb

but whats the diff between the flex RF and this code?

magic_man185 · « **Reply #5 on:** May 08, 2012, 01:04:22 PM »

This code has RS232 connectivity that lets you connect the controller to a computer to change the speeds on the fly.

use flex images

read through the code and you will find:

;************Pin names*********************
LEDL        equ      5
LEDR      equ      4
PINRECV      equ      3
BUTTONR      equ      2
TRIGGERL     equ      1
TRIGGERR    equ      0

then reference the data sheet:

pin1 - vdd
pin2 - ledL
pin3 - LEDR
pin4 - REC
pin5 - buttonR
pin6 - triggerL
pin7 - triggerR
pin8 - gnd

Well I cant wait to have a go at installing this one! Ive pretty much made all of the Codes on this sight im always after another install chellenge, as Ill leave the code writing up to the experts! However I can pretty much install anything and this looks like fun

Is the Hex or list of whats needed been dropped yet?

Modded Matt · « **Reply #10 on:** May 21, 2012, 06:17:07 AM »

THis is the flex code with the usb conectivity added.

What has been posted here is the ASM files for the code. Using the ASM you could build upon or modify this code. OR you can take the ASM open it in MPLAB and recompile it. MPLAB would then spit out the hex file to be wrote to your chip.

The only other components you would need would be the usb or 3.5mm port/jack.

To my knowledge, hazer has not released the pc utility for this mod yet. So this is just another form of flex until he does.

Phantom · « **Reply #11 on:** May 22, 2012, 02:25:02 AM »

I think it connects to the serial port on your PC not USB.

I am trying to build the HEX in MPLAB, but I keep getting 'BUILD FAILED' ive tried different file paths and it still fails. Does anyone want to give it a try and post up the HEX file?

Phantomz0 is right. The Matrix compiles fine. The CG2 does not though.

Lines 1011-1040 are the subroutines in the CG2 code. They seem to be commented out so that every call to those routines fails.

Now the CG2Final.asm compiles. But there is a FlexCG2.asm in there as well that does not. Is it needed?

magic_man185 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 22, 2012, 06:35:06 AM »

Hazer,

I thought that you did a single pin for both LEDs with the Final Rapidfire code, so that you had a transmit and receive pin for the RS232. Am I mistaken?

Modded Matt · « **Reply #14 on:** May 22, 2012, 09:55:45 AM »

I was also wondering how the send and recieve was handled, but reading the ASM it is clear only one pin was used for programing and two pins were used for leds.

The labels in the ASM are wrong the correct pin out is-

1. Vdd
2. LED control pin (goes to the middle of the two series LEDs)
3. Serial Tx
4. Serial Rx
5. Mode Switch (active low)
6. Left trigger
7. Right trigger
8. GND

The best way to use this mod is with a cheapo usb serial converter like this,

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-2-0-RS232-SERIAL-DB9-DB-9-PIN-ADAPTER-CONVERTER-CABLE-LEAD-GPS-PDA-PC-/160691781845?pt=UK_Computing_TV_Tuner_Video_Capture_Devices&hash=item2569fa00d5#ht_1694wt_1189

Also a voltage divider should be put on the Rx Pin to step down the >3 voltages from the serial ports.

Hazer,

I still have the project files from my RS232 program, written in visual basic. I never completed it, but it is most of the way done. I could put the finishing touches on the program and release it if anyone is interested. I would just need someone to test it, because I don't intend to create a controller with a RS232 interface (working on USB).

Hey Everyone,

I have been lurking for quite some time. I have some questions on the final rapidfire. Please forgive my ignorance.

But for this install, does anyone have a part number for the multi-color LED that was used? Also for the 3.5mm jack?

Thanks.

drummerdude · « **Reply #20 on:** June 05, 2012, 02:55:32 PM »

You can use a bi-color led if you want, but the one that was used in Hazer's kit is actually 2 leds glued together. You can use any 3.5mm audio jack like this http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103452
Hazer's install guide calls for a custom pcb, I plan to write up an install to make this without a pcb as soon as i get my parts from china. Also, it doesn't demonstrate how to create a programming cable, but when i make my install guide, i'll cover that too.

txchevyz71 · « **Reply #21 on:** June 05, 2012, 05:22:08 PM »

I have been making all of my mods on boards like this http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/9081/9081CA-ND/151975

With the soic version of the 12F683 I have been able to install it in the middle of the controller with no issues

Actually you can't use a bi-color led. A bi- color led, at least all that I have ever seen, shares either anode or cathode between both leds. To control both leds with a single pin, you have to connect the pin to anode of one led and cathode of the other, so that you drive the pin high to light one led and drive the pin low to light the other.

my bad. you're right

Phantom · « **Reply #24 on:** June 08, 2012, 08:51:44 PM »

Im having trouble getting this to work, I think its the LED's thats the problem. Should they look like this?

with the green wire going to a 100ohm resistor then pin 2?

Yes that is correct

ahh I have the rapidfire working now..

only problem now is the serial jack, this is the one im using http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/41016.pdf which pins should be tx/rx?

I just get an error when I try to send the config

Ive ordered a usb to serial converter, so that might sort it out.

Here are some pics of the serial jack placement

What are you currently using to program it(e.g desktop PC serial port, laptop serial port)? and what error do you get?

I don't think it really matters how the jack is wired as long as the cable matches, I think (not 100% sure) hazer's were wired like this

Phantom · « **Reply #29 on:** June 10, 2012, 05:37:15 AM »

Im using a desktop PC I can only see the 'communications port (COM1)' in device manager which i assume is the serial port, it tests OK in the app. Hazers app says 'programing fail Read Timeout.' press ok 'programming failed check connections or port'

The cable I was using didnt match the above pinout, so I rewired it to match, but I still get the same error.
