Afraid the latter -- we don't lack for projects around here and that's just not something we're looking at doing much with. >> Sure; either that or stuff them into the existing AltosUI configuration bits. > I guess I'm not super sure how the existing config bits work. > Come to think of it, I'm not 100% sure where the config files are > stored... There's a Java API for storing configuration stuff; the values are persisted in some file; I don't even recall which one :-) > I guess I'd have to look closer at the firmware.

There are instructions for recovering from busted firmware in the manual, but if you're going to be hacking the code, having a programmer is really helpful as that supports symbolic debugging and everything. They're not super expensive: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/ST-LINK-V2/2214535 We've even got some adapter boards that provide a clean connection to TeleMetrum using a short piece of ribbon cable and a couple of Micro MaTch connectors. https://git.gag.com/?p=hw/swdadapter;a=summary I think Bdale has a handful of these already built, if you're interested. -- -keith
