Ir Toy V2 with v22 firmware. OLS 0.9.5 running in Funtoo(Gentoo) Linux. When I try to capture a signal all I get is a blank line. When I try to rerun the capture I get "I/O problem: No Such Port!" dmesg gives me: "tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0." The device still exists but if I try to open it with a terminal emulator I get "cannot open /dev/ttyACM0: Input/output error" If I unplug and replug in the IR Toy it will let me try to capture again but then the exact same thing happens.
Ideas? I seem to be running into every possible problem with this thing...
Is there any software that uses the frequency reading abilities of the IR toy? I need to be able to find the frequencies that various remotes transmit at. The docs seem to cover the commands involved but am I going to have to write my own software to use it or is there something out there?
I compiled fw_update in both linux and Mac OS X. In both cases it can't find the ir toy and this is all I get: # fw_update -e -w -v -m flash -vid 0x04d8 -pid 0xfd0b -ix USBIRToy.v22.hex U2IO flash erasing: FAILED. Device is not found. Operation aborted.
I put the ir toy in to update mode with $ and the light is on. Linux does see the device. This is my current dmesg: [31831.451058] usb 3-1: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci_hcd [31831.651078] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=04d8, idProduct=fd0b [31831.651089] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [31831.651098] usb 3-1: Product: Diolan [31831.651103] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: Diolan [31831.664076] generic-usb 0003:04D8:FD0B.0003: claimed by neither input, hiddev nor hidraw
I originally had hidraw enabled in the kernel and the message was slightly different and /dev/hidraw0 (or something like that) was created. It didn't see the device so I thought maybe the driver was conflicting with libusb. removing it didn't fix it.
I am currently stuck in update mode and my brand new ir toy is useless. Any ideas?
Does anyone have a part number and source for the 2x6 connector needed to make a probe cable for the BP V4? only saw 2x5 and 2x7 on mouser. Premade cables would be nice as well but planning on making a bunch of custom stuff anyway.
