I thought I was doing well..but not joy.
My LCD is an old one with VER 1.09D
I'm following these directions https://www.eggtimerrocketry.com/attachments/File/Eggfinder_LCD_Flash_Update_Instructions_B2.pdf
Downloaded this Eggfinder LCD Receiver 1.10R Software Update https://www.eggtimerrocketry.com/attachments/File/Eggfinder_LCD_Flash_Update_Instructions_B2.pdf saved it to c:\eggtimer
..using a usb cable from Eggtimer..changed the com port from 3 to 2.and Download the drivers for it
The Serial Cable to LCD’s serial header pins are the right colors. I have a shorting jumper pin in the two holes. I don't hear the buzzer when I turn the LCD on. I do see XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX across the LCD screen
I think I have all the command prompts right...see below.
I see things start to happen and remove the jumper..there's a long beeeep in there some where...thing scroll quickly in the cmd box..then it stops and I turn off the LCD and unplug things. Turn the LCD back on, and it still shows ver 1.09D
I've amazed myself to get this far. If you see where I screwed up or need more info...PLEASE ask questions and give directions as if I'm a 59 year old guy that just woke up from the 80's!
PS...and I did reboot my laptop just before I tried to flash the LCD...I read that some of the download things need to be rebooted prior to flashing,
