Thanks.....

 

wonder what the upgrade has added or repaired?

 

They list the changes on the site.

 

That has been released for a while now. Seems to work fine with the PP1. Well, besides never seeing such visual oddities in terms of pseudo-DOS programs running on XP. It works great though without any bugs or crashes so far.
It is about time they gave the updates away. WTF? they have the users debug and report the stuff and then they used to try and sell it back to them. Five stars for Xtronics............now they just have to get all of that junk commercial grade (that can fail below 32* F) hardware out of the pocket emulator.

 

Is there a password needed for the software? I seem to recall that being the case in the past.

 

I've gotten mine to work without a hitch at 0F. I also switched the internal battery to 2 AA's instead of that pocket watch POS that wouldn't last me more than 6 months.

If anybody has any hitchs with this software and the PP1 please post it. I would test it out but my programmer is on loan to a friend.

 

That pocket watch POS is good. The memory they use/design is a POS and that is why it chews up the battery. My xtronics devices works out 0F too. Not that it means anything........take a look at the datasheets for the parts and then post how reliable you think it is.
It is the same as saying "my completely stock L98 has 30psi of boost and makes 800rwhp." Funny how some people will study an engine component like a crank or rod up and down. When it comes to electronics on that same engine.....if it works then all the research is done.

 

Nope, not this time!

 

Cool....Thanks for the info.
