NP-41 Emulator (may be)

[Egan Ford]

Mine arrived yesterday. Thanks! I have not had any issues that I am aware of. Everything worked as expected. All keys good, etc...

Questions/comments:

1. When I press PROG I get 00 REG 46, shouldn't the CV report 00 REG 319? Or is this a C? I may have missed something in the previous threads. EDIT: NM forgot about SIZE.

2. I didn't have any problems getting to the serial menu at 9600 using GNU Screen from my Mac, however I have not tried to do anything like upload a ROM yet. I'll need something other than screen to do that. I may write something custom for that.

3. The 3d printed case is a very nice touch. Easy access to back and front.

4. Suggestion. If possible consider the staggered header holes that the pocket chip uses (e.g. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1065/9...5947226880). This will allow header pins to be snugly connected. However I didn't have any problems dropping a 4-ping header in there and using the tension of the jumper wires to hold it firm.

5. I used this for the USB to serial: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019I3CAIE. I use these for other embedded and SBC use. The pic is wrong in that link however. Its the correct size but has FTDI vs PL2303. It also ships with headers and jumper wires. Everything you need.

6. The build quality IMHO is spectacular.

7. What are the other non-serial headers for?

Thanks again.
