That is great and a potential way forward - I will email you direct Rich On 29/11/2016 10:29, Alain HAOUI wrote: Rich, For the Qubide side of question, I have no idea how to contact Phil but I inform you that I rewrote entirely for my own need the Qubide driver derived from the code written by Phil compatible with the ROM V2.
