Re: [E3-hacking] About connecting to the serial on the E3

[Brian Walton]

If the E3 has a TTL serial port as reported here then a USB to TTL serial
adapter should work fine. No need for line drivers or level adjustment, nor
any need for inverters. Just connect it straight through. These USB to TTL
serial are very common and cheap because they don't have the MAX232 (or
similar) conversion chips. Wire:

GND --- GND
TX --- RX
RX --- TX

Do not use a real RS233 port as it will use higher (and lower) voltage and
be inverted.

These cheap USB serial devices are a couple of quid on eBay.

Provided the E3 and the USB device ran off isolated supplies, you might be
able to get away with connecting the 5V (or whatever) on the USB adapter to
the GND on the jack. That would cause the logic levels to be interpreted
inverted.

Note, this does not constitute advice, not responsible for any device
destruction caused by doing this, etc...

Cliff mentioned using USB ethernet, but in the context of replacing the

I seem to remember the logic levels used by the E3 to be the reverse of what is 
normally used for TTL serial, hence the need for an invertor.  Don't know if 
the USB TTL serial devices support that variation.

When I briefly was playing with this a long time ago I used:

- USB to RS232
- MAX (of some sort) to level shift to TTL
- MAX (well same one, it had two sets of level shifters) to level shift back to 
RS232
- E3

Thanks for the advice people.. 
I don’t have RS232 on my PC, I only use USB to TTL on it.
Do I use a headphone jack that's mono so it only has 3 connections on it, not a 
stereo one, any one got a pic of it so I know what to get(I know what it looks 
like just need to see if it a normal headphone mono jack),I might have one in 
my wire draw.. 

I seem to remember the logic levels used by the E3 to be the reverse of what is 
normally used for TTL serial, hence the need for an invertor.  Don't know if 
the USB TTL serial devices support that variation.

When I briefly was playing with this a long time ago I used:

- USB to RS232
- MAX (of some sort) to level shift to TTL
- MAX (well same one, it had two sets of level shifters) to level shift back to 
RS232
- E3

From what I remember, the MAX was liberal enough on the RS232 rx side attached 
to the E3 tx line to cope with the non-RS232 levels.  As for the E3 rx line, I 
presume it coped ok, but in hindsight I'm a little surprised.

I'd have thought that would make the USB dev see the E3's 0V - 5V as 5V - 10V, 
and the E3 to see the USB's 0V - 5V as -5V - 0V.  Which doesn't sound like it 
helps - am I missing something?

[E3-hacking] How does it work then the Emailer deactivated itself..?

[Nick Griffin]

Hi me again..  WOW I have lit this place up like a xmas tree… 
Does anyone know how the Emailer works when it deactivates itself (locks 
itself, I came up with the word activate/deactivate because that's what its 
doing when it stops its features on the Emailer, deactivated non functional)

I think it might be downloading a file or something so if it can’t download the 
file it deactivates the Emailer.

I would of done it that way because the file can be very small (bytes size) and 
quick to download in a couple of seconds.

And like how it removes its games after a week or four weeks, after a set time 
of not being able to connect to the server, it deletes the file and the Emailer 
then deactivates itself because the file is not there no more.
Mine took 3 months to deactivate, I remembered when I got it from eBay and turn 
it on, I had it on continually, but still have it on now. (but that's because 
the firmware has a bug in it so it lets you make a call on it even when it 
deactivated, more about that in another post)
The E3 its way better looking than the rest..  the E1 look better then the E2.

It does make senses, but I might be completely wrong, If you know how it works 
please post.

Thanks and have a great day.

Re: [E3-hacking] About connecting to the serial on the E3

[David Given]

Yes, you're right, that's clearly nonsense.

Why would the E3 generate an inverted signal, anyway? If it's just the raw
output from the processor (which I think it is) then it should be standard
TTL levels, because it's supposed to be fed into something like a MAX232
for conversion to RS232 levels. Inverting it but leaving it at TTL seems
very odd.
