NP-41 Emulator (may be)

[Chris Chung]

For everyone on the 1st batch units. This had become a beta product test (which should have been in the 1st place) and it's failing your / my expectations. So if you want to reverse the purchase, please let me know and I will provide a refund to you. Otherwise I would continue to work on fixing these units. The main issue is that I did not / was not able to do extensive testings on the hardware / firmware design. I had one unit that I used extensively and I assumed that the rest behave the same. Now that is not the case. And it could take a while before sorting everything out.

For additional replacement units, I will only ship them after I am comfortable that they behave well (at least one week w/ more extensive usage). Even so, w/o knowing the source of problem, there is still a risk that they can fail after being good for a few weeks.

Currently I am focusing on a new PCB w/ adequate ground plates to battle the "possible" EMC / noise. Also working on firmware that can report on reasons of freeze / resets.

I am also looking at the ROM modules. I have only the Math-1C.bin and the PHYSICS.bin to play w/. If you know other ROM sources, please let me know a few so that I can try more as well.

Thanks.
