Sorry to hear about your remote. Sounds like you are almost there, though. What usb chip are you using?
I realize that the rs-232 driver isn't in the 500. What would like to know is if the ttl side of the rs-232 driver in the 700 is connected to these pins on the controller. Can anyone with a 700 verify this?
In my opinion, the 7 pin header is there for easily upgrading the remote's firmware on the manufacturing floor. I have a hard time believing that this header is only one-way. If it is only one way, then they would have no way of verifying through this interface that the code was written correctly. I know the manufacturing guys I work with would never go for that. I think htm said it was one way just to discourage people from trying.
I searched the archives for a previous discussion about this connector, but I couldn't find anything. Could someone please post a link to it?
