This looks awesome, I don't know how I will be able to resist!!!

After more investigations, I found a reference to this procedure on schach-computer.info website: https://www.schach-computer.info/wiki/i ... n_11_68060

But I am still interested if someone has additional information / reference about it...

Thanks,

Hi, a friend of mine told me about a procedure for Elite Avant Garde which would display the program version and other data by pressing TB when turning on the machine. We would like to understand what is displayed when TB is pressed repeatedly (it seems to have ~7-8 steps ?) In addition, I cannot ma...

Hi Eric,

thank you for the great answer, your pieces look way better than what I imagined to be able to achieve. I'll definitely follow your advices!

For an Axim, there is also the option of creating a serial cable :) I discovered this page recently: https://textfiles.meulie.net/mirror/pinouts.ru/PDA/dell_axim_pinout.shtml And I bought this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/181719786641 Not received yet, but I received the CF card which works well... Bes...

I feel as though I may be getting close, but I wonder if anyone's got ideas for the last step. I've got to the point where my bluetooth serial module (BOLUTEK) is paired with the Dell Axim x51, which sees it as a serial port, and I can communicate with the Dell via a serial port on my PC. I've writ...

OK, i have send a few hours these last few days trying to make my Bluetooth - Serial converter without success :( BT part seems ok: I can discover the device through BT either with my pocket pc or a PC and the support for serial port is discovered as well. However, my Pocket PC fails to finalize the...
