Another update: I finallly found my meter and started working some more. But it might have to wait as I think I blew something out in both of my Duo Docks. The first one (original Duo Dock) started smoking as soon as I booted up the Duo. And the second one (DD Plus) outputs only in solid grey video on external monitor and I still haven't figured how to get the Duo's screen to run yet. I know of a source of Duo Docks so I could pick up some cheap or even almost free and I'll be looking in that after Thanksgiving weekend.
Oh yeah, my "geniua pig" 230 had been reduced to booting off only floppy disk as it wouldn't boot off of the internal HD even though the same HD works OK in my 280c. And it wouldn't boot off of the Duop Dock's HD or the external SCSI drives. I don't know how I blew it out. Lastly, anyone have a spare 270c or 280c screen in good cosmetic shape (working or not) as I had a bit of trouble with a stripped T-6 screw and ended up breaking the back piece. Drilling out the screw was a really bad idea after all since there's almost nothing but plastic. This was part of my HD light add on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Genki" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Duo/2400 List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2001 6:02 PM Subject: [Duo2400] Duo Dock hack update > After looking over the list of 152 pins and ruling out as many as I could, I > am left with 2 pins that are likely to be the one that turns on or off the > internal monitor and a few mor epins that are a 'maybe' Now if only I could > remember where I left those DMM... > > What I'm, following is pin 122 (+5v EXT SENSE) and 114 (/SLOT IN) and > without my meter I can't find out for sure if they are different between the > Duo Dock mainboard from the mini docks.
