Chuck, Thanks for sending the POSE ROM for Palm. Thanks also to Mikey for sending me another. I have the driver for Pocket Keys loaded, and I have a serial cable made, but I may have the pins arranged backwards, no luck yet with the emulator (the palm pins are not numbered). Chuck, you mentioned "the driver sends D5h to the keyboard, and then reports no response from the keyboard". Where did you see that? I found the port redirection and logging settings: Settings -> Properties -> redirection -> Serial Port Settings -> Logging (serial activity and serial data) But I don't see any serial data. I get the same message about no keyboard, but I don't see any serial data. I see a file called Log_0001.txt in the pose directory, but I'm not seeing any serial data in there. This power saving feature on Pocket Keyboard is a PITA. Maybe useful for PDAs but I don't need that feature on wearable, I can't imagine that this keyboard draws much power, I'd rather power it from the serial port than from lihium coin cells which need replacing. In the PocketKeys app it has auto-off timeout settings for 1,2,3,5 or 10 minutes, or never. What we want is the code for "never auto off". I'd like to figure out how to ditch the coin cell batteries altogether and get power from the serial port or PS/2 port. The pocket keyboard uses two 3V lithium cells. If it would work on 5V we could use the PS/2 port for power. http://www.hut.fi/Misc/Electronics/circuits/power_from_pc.html Can you ask those Cirque people if this will run on 5V? -- Doug -- Subscription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.blu.org Please, *PLEASE* don't subscribe through a forward/expander/false domain
