[time-nuts] PROM decode of FE-5680A
Hi, has anyone yet managed to extract and/or disassemble the eprom of an FE-5680A? Im willing to help with disassembly/decoding if you have the binary dump.

Were you trying to communicate with the ASCII commands like S and F = (cr) or were you using the binary commands documented in http://www.wa6vhs.com/Test%20equipment/FREQUENCY%20STANDARDS/FE-5680A/5680%20TECH%20MANUAL.pdf Seems to me that the units currently available on eBay only support the binary commands.

Re: [time-nuts] Schematic capture, anyone?
Hi, Comments on their downloads page indicate that it runs under Wine. I havent tried it though. Cheers.

Re: [time-nuts] Fwd: FE-5680A Contact FEI
Hmmm, Seems they dont realise that their lack of cooperation will lead, not to protecting their product, but rather to the massive, public reverse engineering of it?
