- purchased the card (archived for posterity)
- put it in the board
- dowloaded the latest ROMTERM.PRG found on the X16 Discord (from early June 2024, not linking here so ask around?)
- turned on X16, ran ROMTERM.PRG
- selected default settings (wifi "UART" already was already selected)
- to configure the wifi I typed,
Code: Select all
at+config
- typed in, "host" - local machine name, just set it to "x16"
- typed in, "wifi" - scans local wifi APs, select the one you want and put in the password
- typed in, "quit" - prompts to save and quit
Code: Select all
adt"vert.synchro.net"
Code: Select all
adt"213.136.8.188"
- I downloaded the update ZIP from Texelec, here
- unzip'd it and followed the instructions in the text file
- running on Windows 10
- I tried the "./Update.bat" in Powershell, but the device could not be found initially
- I did the "hold BOOT" thing to put it in update mode, that may have helped but the main issue was no driver was present
- I had to install the driver CP210x Universal Windows Driver here
- unzip'd it, found the device in the Windows "Device Manager" and went through "properties" to "update driver" - most may be familiar with this process
- ended up putting the device on "COM3" for me
- ran "./Update.bat" in Powershell, and it worked just fine
After that it all worked. The main card site has links to different BBSes and other things to play around with.
