Anyone got one of these? A real (old type?) one that is, not a ConZult. I've just spent ages pulling the thing apart to get to a dodgy connector... put it all back together and now it simply says:

 

HT-OS V1.04

 

Error 102

Bad directory

 

 

Boy, am I in trouble!?! :eek: It looks like there's a reset button, which doesn't seem to do much. Is there some sort of procedure necessary after the battery (the on-board lithium one) has been replaced?

 

Any help would be useful. Yeah, I've checked all the 'orrible ribbon cables.

I would ask Danny ZAt

Cheers Jock. Is that Danny the ConZult guy? I'll try him in a bit. Think I need to go fess up to the owner of said kit - kinda hoping he'll know more about it :confused: I was gonna take some pics cos it's not often you see these things, let alone in a million bits (3 double-sided PCB's FFS!) but it wouldn't seem fair to say: this is what the insides of a Consult (that won't boot any more) look like.

they do say confession is good for the soul :)

I'd have thought you'd have made your own Si!

Seriously though, the serial conversion bit is nothing, I've got a circuit diagram somewhere, a bit of software and off you go.

I believe Eric Lymon has one.

:D There's a lot of features in the Consult (/ConZult) that I'm not /all/ that interested in. I want to hook something up so I can tell what gear the autobox is in tho. So that circuit could come in handy. It's not simply 0-5V TTL coming from the ECU(s) is it? Converting that to RS232 levels is easy enough.

 

Does Lymon still come on here Andy?

 

Having fessed-up earlier, it's... um... being dealt with. I only looked at it as a bit of a favour - didn't expect it to forget how to boot! The owner was kinda OK about it. I shall leave it at that for now. I should've taken pics tho... nice bit of kit, all touch-screen and wotnot.

I'll dig it out and mail it to you tonight.

I was going to ask you some questions about it anyway, seeing as you're the guru on this stuff :D

Cheers

Guru?! If you mean I'm the best person to ask if you need something broken, you could be right :)
