Title: Rev Burner not detected after Firmware change HELP!
Post by: chris p duck on March 20, 2011, 10:29:50 am
Hey Guys, well just got my Revburner and very impressed. My plan was always to get 2 (speedo and rev dials) but as I wasn't 100% my gauges would be compatible I thought I'd order one first and check it could drive both before ordering the 2nd. Well I hooked it up the the rev counter and easy as pie off we go, no problems there at all. Played a few games any everything went as I expected.

So I downloaded the firmware and bootloader to flash the firmware so I could test it with the speedo. It writes and verifies without a problem... However I now cant get it to do anything. In Simdash it reports all devices as disconnected. (Yes I moved the jumper back from flashing it). I tried powering down and up, unplugging and reconnecting USB, restarting SimDash, restarting the PC everything I can think of but no joy.

So I flashed it back to the rev counter firmware (Again wrote and verified ok) but still no detection in SimDash.

Please help, I only had it working for a few hours yesterday and now I cant use it for anything! :(

Hello.
When you flash the original firmware and the rev burner is not recognised by SimDash, is it seen by the bootloader instead?

Thanks
Cristiano

It's fine, I have it sorted now thanks (prefer not to say what it was, makes me sound stupid) cheers for the rapid responce anyway. Cheers for the top quality board as well.

It sort-of-works for my speedo... My speedo goes upto 160mph, but even with the ppm pushed up to the max the needle only reaches 90. Now have to decide between keeping just rev counter, buying new dials or re-printing the dial and only using 2/3rds of it's range. Hmmm
