Serial programmer??

Was there once a serial version of the SX programming tools?· If so, is there a schematic of a connection that would do the same thing?

Thanks.

    Vaati,

    do you want to program the SX directly yourself? This is not easy to do. Use this forum search and you'll see this comes up often:

    "programming the SX without key or blitz"

    !!! That is EXACTLY what I needed! Thanks so much for that search query!

    I will have my own SX programmer up and running by UPENE! (I hope...)


    Thanks!

    Several years ago, I took one look at the timing diagrams (below)·and decided an SX-blitz was far cheaper. (Time is *more* valuable than money [noparse];)[/noparse]

    Oh geez-- I hate timing diagrams... I really need an o'scope... Well, I agree with you now--Getting a blitz/key is the way to go...

    What? Oh--That's the pic I had originally intended to use, but it was HUGE!! I found a way to compress it by about 99% in order to use it for my profile...

    Speaking of avatars, what is that a picture of?? Tell me those aren't props emitting smoke clouds... smile.gif

    I agree! I just used that one as a little "filler." smile.gif I have a bunch of super metroid gifs, and the space pirate was my favorite.
