VemsTune/Round (2009-05-28 12:02:23)

VemsTune must be made to work with round again - VemsTune communication broke after AIM support was added in round firmware.

The 5 byte AIM protocol is broken by design, the frame-byte is not the first, but the 2nd byte.

Therefore if round is using the serial line for AIM and some other protocol,

round cannot decide if it's AIM packet or other. Therefore it must wait more bytes before

processing it (acting or answering). This brakes vemstune communications.

(megatune does not work with it reliably either, but at least work in some cases).

We are looking to find a good workaround.


note to Developers: reproduce and fix


Misc notes - clean up after adding pointers

I have the gauge set-up with the MegaTune now. I forgot that the MT even existed for the gauge, Sambas told me about it on the IRC.

I'm pretty happy with the gauge, I really like how versatile it is with the 8 modes.
