Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Guys

I have just powered up one one my Maximites via the usb cable ..I am using Indigo terminal emulator and i have downloaded the serial driver for the Maximite...I assumed on powerup the Maximite would send a bootup message to the terminal app...Im also assuming that the SM1 boards that Don sells have firmware in them...?? any pointers would be great..

Thanks

Frank

Press enter on the terminal emulator keyboard. The Maximite cannot tell when a terminal emulator has started running on your PC so it waits for a character to be received before printing the startup banner.
