Hi Scott That is very impressive; the interface with intelligence has got to be the way to go. Having the ability to turn off soft mute without being connected to a computer will appeal to all members. Scott I notice you show a wire from the SW and FM enables, what is this used for? Is the debug lead used with the base board? I am awaiting the arrival of my daughter card so I can get involved in this new dimension you have added. Is the Silabs' EVB GUI software available? Cheers Roy.

Unfortunately, the new brain is a couple millimeters too big. The short-term solution was to remove the patient's speaker. Everything else then fits beautifully. I'll have to put some thought into re-fitting the speaker later. > > What can a PL-380 do with two brains? Here's a quick sampling: > 1) Full USB interface, compatible with Silabs' EVB GUI software and with "homebrew" software. 2) I've rewired the PL-380's "Alarm" button so it can initiate stealth commands. 3) An added bicolor LED provides feedback. 4) The new brain can automatically override radio parameters (e.g. soft-mute) even without USB connection. > > Now to work on refining the software... > > Cheers, > Scott >
