Rockbox mail archiveSubject: Serial connection and Rockbox?Serial connection and Rockbox?
From: Joseph Jones <joe_at_bumpycarrot.cjb.net>
Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2004 18:04:37 +0000 I'm gonna go out on a bit of a limb here... While I currently can achieve *nothing* in C, I plan to learn it this coming summer. I also plan to have, by then, a Sharp Zaurus SL-C860. There's a serial CompactFlash adaptor available for it, although it is rather pricy. Basically, my questions are: 1. Does the JBR require any internal modification to have a serial port? Am I correct in saying that there is a serial line on a 4th pin on the Line-In? 2. How fast is the serial connection? Can it be used to go both ways? Is it fully compliant with standards? I ask basically because, it would be pretty sweet if I could put together some serial communication code, either in a plug-in (is that possible?) or somewhere else, to be able to use my JBR as a portable HDD for my Zaurus. Obviously there would more than likely need to be some code on the side of the other machine to accomodate for the JBR, and I'm ay ahead of myself here, but I was just wondering whether it is possible. Many thanks Joe _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-02-10 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
