hhhmm the anoying thing with the chat board is, is that its got a silly slightly rounded bottom so when you put it on a flat desk and try to type it rocks side to side hehe... they are quite small when you get them 4 inches long hehe... Im thinking of modding the Blue carry case that you get with them so the cable runs out the back of the case and keeps the chatboard stilll.....

 

[Magic Knight]

carry case ?

ooo i like the sound of that

 

[zenocha]

ye the chatboards come with a case, when mine are reay the cases will be modded so you can still store your chatboard in them with the cable sticking out.

 

[Steve-O]

have you modded one yet Zen?? do you know this pic here - http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/jikorhon/gp32/...00_kbd_open.JPG does the Orange Wire connect to that resistor then another wire goes to the solder Tab from the same end of the resistor that the orange wire is connected to??

 

[Steve-O]

instead of connecting the Orange wire and tab 4 to the surface mounted resistor, I just soldered them both to Tab 1. Chat board works Perfectly but you get 2 different values when you press a button like "A".. hhhmmmm

 

[zenocha]

its part of the programming getting two values i think as i get it too, and sure conect it to tab1 i dont see any difference

 

[Steve-O]

yea I checked with multimeter and its a good point to solder to Safer than soldering to the Resistor (I actually think its a surface mounted Fuse now as my PSX has blown a Fuse and it looks the same as that... hhmmmm)
