HP41CL New QMTH Image

[Neve]

Just to let you guys know that after updating to the latest patches, 180624 and then 180626, the new QMTH image is nowhere to be found on my V5.
Maybe the name was a typo??
Any ideas?

QMTH?

V5?

It's there, but I forgot to update the IMDB so that the plug functions can find it.

Use "+25E A" PPLUG to plug it in (page 10 in this example) until I get the IMDB
updated. Sorry about that.

Use "+254 A" PPLUG to plug it in (page 10 in this example) until I get the IMDB
updated. Sorry about that.

No problem. I just thought it was worth mentioning.

Thanks Monte

PS: Any heads up on the Time Module or on another batch of V5 boards?

I plan to start another batch of V5 boards next week, so boards should be
available early August.

Time Module clone is fully functional as a breadboard. Assembled boards aren't
working and I'm trying to figure out why. It's very slow-going because the FPGA
is one-time programmable, so I waste a board every time I change something,
even to bring out an internal signal to look at. In both cases there is very limited
visibility about what is going on internally. On the breadboard I can watch eight
internal signals, but on the assembled board only two internal signals can be
brought out at a time. My head hurts from the repeated banging against the wall.

Whaooo!! Incredible headache with the time module indeed!
I hope you’ll figure it out!

Looking forward to getting another V5 board.

Thanks for the heads up.
